My new vehicle has experienced complete electrical malfunction while driving. Vehicle unexpectedly turns on all warnings and disabled all safety features to include collision and blindside monitors. As indicated by many other Subaru owners, the problems were diagnosed by Subaru to be related to a loose transmission harness. So far Subaru has not issued a recall to inspect all 2019 and 2020 Subaru Ascent transmission assembly. We are super scare of driving the vehicle with the idea that it can stall in mid driving.

Have had electrical (radio/bluetooth) issues since 2 weeks after taking poccession. Been in for repair 4 times. No resolve loose steering is a big safety concern. While driving vehicle at an approx.speed of 65 mph in windy conditions on Nov.3 2018 garden state pkwy the wind encapsulated the vehicle causing inability to control. Vehicle moved relentlessly side to side making a white knuckle experience. Side window lane departure lights were almost on constantly. Felt like the wind was lifting car from ground. Had to pull into 2 rest stops as stress of trying to control vehicle was unpredictable and stressful. As for electronic issues dealer replaced amplifiers and problem still persists new radio/phone unit ordered but not installed due to my filing lemon law
