Add another to this list. My 2015 Forester XT spring broke sitting it the driveway. Broken part found in driveway. I never had it off road, never loaded it up, and never towed anything, so I am very surprised. Had it towed to the dealer today. Going to get the both springs and struts replaced, as that is what you have to do with springs and struts, not to mention, the springs they use to replace are different springs then the car came with. Subaru knows this is an issue.
Called Subaru of America, and hoping they take care of it and give me a loaner. My first Subaru is going to be my last Subaru if they don't pick up the cost. Looking at the photo I uploaded, it looks like the springs have a tendency to crack at the bottom of the spring, start rusting, than snap. This is unacceptable, can cause other parts to fail, and could be a danger to the driver and others on the road. Surprised that Subaru hasn't recalled this issue, as this is a major lawsuit waiting to happen, not to mention very bad publicity if people lose their lives as a result of this defect.
