New Ascent Owner

Hi all, Just purchased a new Ascent Premium. Still getting introduced....
Are there any other Ascent folks here?
Regards,
Zeke

 

Welcome!

 

Welcome to the forum Zeke. There are a few on here. Post a pic of your new ride!

 

I am also a new Ascent Limited owner. How do you like your new car?

 

What is your gas mileage per gallon?

 

Not sure if others are having issues.

Had to have my front brake pads replaced, grinding noises, also appear to be having issues with auto liftgate, sometimes wants to open and other times it does not. Lastly, my Bluetooth and is very quirky, keeps loosing my my phone contacts, likewise android auto wants to work some times

 

I have not experienced those issues, at least not yet. Still have just under 2,000 miles. My biggest complaint is that they over rated the gas mileage. Yes, it can get more mileage if you are traveling on the freeway with no traffic, constant speed, and down hill. But, normal traffic combined City/Hwy is around 17 mpg at best. I've had tanks with less. Maybe that's what you get in a car that big with a 4 cylinder turbo engine. I've only seen 2 Ascents on the road since we got ours 3 months ago. We'll see how it does in the snow. Could be the last Subaru for us

 

We've had ours for 2 weeks now. According to the dash computer mileage, we got 28 hwy. (driving about 100 hwy miles) but I haven't done an actual mileage vs gallons pumped figure yet which could be different. One thing I don't like with the adaptive cruise is when you clear a vehicle in front of you by changing lanes, it "floors" it to get back to set cruise speed which wastes gas. Since we do 60% highway driving, it may be difficult to check the actual city driving mileage.
