My CrossTrek is new. I have had it only 2mos. There has been zero issues until, I went out of town for 1 week. When I returned, my key fob wouldn't unlock the car, the dome light was not lit & it wouldn't start. It was completely dead and I had to get it jumped. Nothing was left on. My lights were off & all doors were closed completely.
When I took it into a Subaru Dealership, they told me that it is fairly common for the batteries in Subarus to drain completely after it sits for several days. They took my vehicle in to diagnose the battery & it tested fine. The dealership even tried to charge me a diagnostic fee which I refused to pay. When I pick the car up today, I will talk to the Service Advisor to see if Subaru is looking into the problem. They act like it's a common problem & it's just "the way it is" and they don't seem to want to do anything about it. In fact. they told me I could either purchase an Optima battery or disconnect one of my battery terminals every time I go out of town for several days.
