 Description of the problemAutomatic front seats. When wife opens the passenger door first (before the driver) the driver seat adjusts to her set position. An d if i don't pay attention the driver seat will push/crush me into the steering wheel. I have a bad back and drop foot, so i don't have the strength of a younger person. My only salvation is to squeeze out or hit the position button on the door panel. Also, the presets go out all the time. I have asked if they could disable the passenger side door sensor. Nothing. Rear gate opening: it has happened so many times. I have complained directly to subaru about the seat and gate problem. No results. The rear gate has opened while raining outside during the night. It has opened while in the garage jamming the overhead garage door. I am afraid on trips to have stuff stolen out of my car is such an incident. Happened once. Also... They have a cute preset so you can set the max height of the gate opening. Twice my wife has walked into the rear gate and literally flipped backwards to the pavement! Subaru denies any problems about the gate. Funny, one day i was helping a friend and her mom was there. As they helped me unload my subaru we discovered that mom had also a similar model. The first question she asked me "have you any problem with your rear gate"!!! It's not just me. Subaru needs to step up and fix these problems before someone really gets hurt or have loss of items from the car.
