Wondering if this size would be fit or does it have to be the 60R18?

Hello, I have a few issues with my 2020 that I am planning on getting diagnosed at the dealer soon but figured I'd throw them out on here first to hopefully get an idea of what I should except cost wise. I'm out of warranty.

The first thing is the rear hatch won't open when the engine is running. It just does 3 beeps and will only open when you hold down the button on the actual hatch but just pops open so you need to manually raise it. This isn't normal is it? It opens and closes fine when the engine is off.

Other thing also has to do with the hatch. When it opens it goes all the way up then comes down about 4 inches. The memory is turned off. You push it back up and it lowers again. It seems like a strut might have failed.

I'd really appreciate any input or if you have had to do these repairs how big of a deal they were.

TIA!

Hi,
I'm looking for 21 &22 and I am looking on internet but can't find any info about the 21&22 lane ascent lane centering. Is it the lane centering or just lane keep assist? Is it good for keeping itself in the lane instead of ping ponging? Also are the memory seats keys and side mirrors linked?
Thnak you

Although I try to do some basic preventative maintenance things on my own, I would rather a professional do it than attempt myself.
Any recommendations for good service at a fair price?

Update 12/3/24 - the Subaru dealership diagnosed it as a bad battery and replaced it under warranty. I’m very pleased with the service.

Original: I just bought my 2022 ascent touring last Wednesday, and that evening it was slow starting and I’ve had hard starting like a bad battery for several days. Today I’m going to go get the battery tested.

Do I need to get a Subaru battery? Do you think this should be covered under cpo or my Subaru gold warranty?

Kind of annoying that it wasn’t caught before I left but it’s what it is.

Update: I have a Subaru service visit scheduled tomorrow where I purchased so hopefully they will take care of it, I’ll update what I find out. I really am enjoying the vehicle otherwise.

Anyone have recommendations for side window deflectors? Likes/dislikes? I have a 2020 Premium. Thanks in advance

Fuel stats for a couple weeks, including our recent trip from our home in northern Georgia to see my brother in Orlando. The 25.48 mpg leg was from Bucee’s in Fort Valley, GA to Bucee’s in Jacksonville, FL via Waycross, with mainly 65-70mph running, gentle rolling hills coming off the piedmont, and light traffic until we got to Jacksonville. Car was reporting 26.7mpg when we got into the traffic around Jax. I believe when I filled up, the car reported 25.7mpg, so it wasn’t too far off its estimate.

Wondering if anyone else is having this issue, when I use the app to turn on my vehicle the A/C button is always on. I deleted my presets, and created a new “My Preset“ and the A/C is on regardless of how high I set the temperature. When you create the “preset” on the app there is only a choice to select the Rear A/C to be on or off. If I shut the A/C off when getting in the car then turn the car off then turn the vehicle back on without using the app the A/C is off, however the next time I use the app the A/C is on again. I called the STARLINK customer support and they were useless and told me to call the dealer that’s it’s a dealer issue😡

Picked up a dashcam with parkmode, have tried Illum and Backup fuses, neither provide power when vehicle is off. Which fuses should I use?

My local Subaru dealer only wants to talk about the 24s they have on the lot but they don't have incentives to move them yet. Subarus own website is pitching 25s with no data for the 24s anymore. Feels like a bad time to commit? How long til the cool new thing shows up and we might make a better deal?

Just wondering if anyone has purchased this hitch and how close it would be to the oem. Also looking for any other recommendations for hitches that aren't the $450 oem. Thanks!

After some back and forth the dealership is offering 10yr/100k/$100 for $2300 on a 10 month plan. Would you guys say this a good deal?

Looking to but a 2024 subaru ascent onyx. Do we need the extended warranty? They said they were giving military discount for it at 3,000.

At first I thought it was my 14 yo accord that I park inside sometimes but didn't see any drops on the street and I'll level was perfect.

So I decided to check my 2021 ascent and realized it was way overfilled (on both sides of the dip stick) probably by half a quart+ if i had to guess. I've only had the oil changed at the dealer about 2 months ago.

What should my next move be?

Do I need to relearn after a spark plug replacement on a 2021 ascent? I’m planning on removing the battery for a simpler installation.

I have a collection of cross bars lol. I have a set from my 2020 xc90 by Thule. 2022 xc60 from Amazon. And now I need a set for my ascent coming. Which ones do you guys have? I hated the ones on my Xc90’s cause they were so noisy thanks!!!

Just bought a pre-owned 2020 Ascent Ltd (single owner) 3 weeks ago and took it in for an oil change, winter tire swap, and some recall work. Upon inspection they informed me I have a cam seal leak and quoted me the $3000+. Now I get that the price is what it is but for a car I bought at a dealership 3 weeks ago am I honestly expected to pay this? I mean I do have extended warranty that I believe will cover it since it's past the 160000km warranty (I'm in Canada and it's covered up to 160000km) but what the actual F?! It's not pissing oil by any means so I'm not racing back to the dealership for repair in the next week but what should I do? I'm not a car girl, the dealership I bought from is an 8hr drive and the nearest Subaru dealership to me is 2 hours away - not like I'd leave my car in the hands of the clowns from the original dealership anyway but do I have any grounds here or is it more likely I'm just going to get told to use the extended warranty? Beyond frustrated.

I’m looking to upgrade to an Ascent and I’m stuck between comparably priced 2022 Onyx Edition (23k miles) or 2023 Limited (38k miles).

I know the issues from 2020-21 were generally resolved in 2022 but are there features in the 2023 that are worth the extra 15k miles? (I’m personally a fan of the physical HVAC controls but the full screen isn’t a deal breaker)

Dealership listed price was 52-53k can't remember exact price but paid 46,298 with freight. Good deal? 49k OTD.

I know it’s still early in the life of the ascent to know how long we can expect these things to last. But I was curious if anyone has an idea of the rough lifespan of one.

My wife is currently driving a 2020 model with 130,000 miles on it. So far we have had no issues with the vehicle. I have contemplated maybe trading it in for a grand highlander hybrid due to the better mpg. However, I don’t want to waste any money if her ascent should theoretically have a lot of life left in it. This is our first Subaru.

Joined the Subaru family today with a 2025 Ascent Touring (black w/ java interior). OTD price with fees was $48,308. Excited to be a part of the community!

Looking for some advice on purchasing a Subaru Ascent. Looking to purchase an SUV that has three rows has good cargo space and works well for taking camping. We were looking at a Toyota Highlander or Honda pilot but doing some research on the Subaru and it may be a better purchase. I don’t know too much about Subarus and wanted to see what peoples thoughts were on theirs, anf if anyone use them for going camping if it works well for that? Also are there things you don’t like? Thanks

I am looking at a 2022 Subaru ascent limited and noticed it does not have a moonroof. I read an earlier post highlighting that a good indicator of a Subaru ascent having the technology package is the moonroof. Can an ascent have a technology package without the panoramic moonroof? If so, what should I be looking for to confirm it has the technology package? Thanks!

When playing Pandora through Apple carplay on my 2024 Ascent, I get the following error. Anyone know a fix?
