Separate question, but what model and year? I’m considering a new forester to replace my 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe.
My coworker has a '19 or '20 Legacy and complained about this same thing. He said it's activated when speeding up behind a vehicle to pass it, cutting power just as he's about to change lanes to go around.
Yikes. That sounds dangerous! If this is allowed to be deactivated then I would do that.
Sounds like that driver could be like all the other angry "i gotta be in people's assholes" drivers that are out and about these days. I have a 2024 Solterra and it doesn't do anything that is being described, however I also leave plenty of space between me and the person in front of me.
Seems the system could be working as intended ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but they can all be disabled.
I've got a '19 Crosstrek and no issues here either. Yes occasionally the warning beeps at me. Usually it's someone in front of me slowing down for a turn. From my experience, I know they'll finish making the turn before I reach them and I don't need to slow down. The system sees a car stopping in front of me and rightfully flashes the red light and beeps. I've never had it actually hit the brakes for me but then again, I try to leave plenty of space between me and other cars. My guess is this guy is speeding up to pass but getting way too close to the car in front of him to do it.
