r/Crosstrek

18k miles. Wheel bearing replaced. Sitting in the dealership now. It is under warranty. Anything else that I need to be aware of with this issue?

It is a 2024 not a 2025.

Being almost June I'm hoping it's safe to take off my snow tires (VT). My local tire shop charges $100 to switch over each time. I want to get a spare set of rims so the switchover will be easier and cheaper. I looked initially but there wasn't anything in stock. To those of you who have a spare set of rims where did you get them can you recommend a brand or model for winter rims. I'll keep the nice rims it came with for summer. I have a 2024 Crosstrek.

1st time Subi owner as of 3 weeks ago. I got a 2026 Crosstrek Wilderness. Honked the horn for the first time last week. WTF is this? It's the most non-agressive horn I've ever heard. LOL. Has anybody changed out their horn to a more manly sounding horn? What was your experience?

This is what I was quoted for on a new 2026 limited hybrid.

MSRP: $37,392.00
Dealer Discount: $2,476.00
Your Price: $34,916.00
Total Savings: $2,476.00
DMV/Registration: $273.99
Doc Fee: $449.00
Taxes (7.45%): $2,634.69
Total Amount Due: $38,273.68

I was wanting it closer to $33-$34k. OTD. But $38k seems a bit steep.

Thoughts?

Looking to buy the hybrid limited along with the moonroof and 360 camera, rear bumper guard and door side protectors (for my two dogs).

Is the auto dimming function for the side mirrors worth it? Was also looking at the LED upgrade kit and bike carrier hitch but are aftermarket options cheaper and easy enough as a diy?

Hey all, I am hoping to buy my first Subaru, preferably the Crosstrek and wanted to ask this community what are some things I should keep in mind when purchasing?

Are there certain years that are way better than others, or should I look at brand new? Is there a trim I should keep an eye out for over another?

I am trading in my Tacoma for it, so I want something that's reliable, fun, and decent with gas, which I am hoping the Crosstrek fits that bill

I’ve had my 2025 Crosstrek for just 13 months. Everything’s been working fine until today. After an appointment when I started the car to drive home CarPlay didn’t start (?). I tried to reconnect my phone but I can’t get it to connect. Do I need to start all over? How? If you tell me to look in the owner’s manual, please tell me which manual and what page. I just can’t find it (so far). Is there a YouTube video, maybe?Worked fine on the way to the appointment (35 miles) but wouldn’t connect as I was leaving.

I don’t know if this is a car issue or a phone issue, but my iPhone16 won’t connect when plugged into my 2019 Trek. It says it’s charging but CarPlay doesn’t start.
It works fine with my wife’s iPhone!
I’ve rebooted the entertainment system in the car and restarted my phone. Anyone ever had an issue like this?

I've driven a few people in my Crosstrek and most, if not all, have said, "Wow, this is a lot nicer than I expected" or "this is my first time in a Subaru, I'm impressed."

Like, what are the expectations toward Subaru? That it's a junker or something??
