CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2014 Outback is showing an early trend of problems with hesitation when accelerating.
The vast majority of owners experiencing this problem have reported that Subaru has not been able to find the cause of the engine hesitation, or fix the problem.
Especially because this is a potential safety defect, we are flagging the 2014 Outback as a model year to watch out for.
I have a complaint about a design flaw in the 2014 Subaru Outback. The button for the four way emergency flasher is in a bad location. Several times now I have moved the gear shift lever up to park and accidentally hit the flasher button. Fortunately I usually notice and turned it off... except the last time. When I came back to the car after 7 hours, of course the battery was dead. The button needs to be in a different location.
