My Steering Rack was replaced @ around 6K miles. Now at 12K noise is back.
Same description: vibration noise front driver side, occurs between 10-25ish miles per hour, just need an uneven to bumpy surface, acceleration has no effect.
First dealer here in MA didn't listen to me (or the car), replaced front sway-bar linker and called it fixed. It was not. Heading back to original dealer who fixed it the fist time for diagnosis. Curious of the TSB is pointing to a recall in the future.
This is my second 3.6R with repetitive issues. My '13 3.6 needed a new transmission around 50K. The first re-conditioned tranny was "over torqued" at the factory and had to be pulled after they tried to pass the car off as "fixed", the second was fine but the whole episode took almost 6 months in a loaner car and first replacing the throttle body, ECU and wiring harness first. My trust in the car and brand was damaged and this situation is not helping to rebuild said trust.
I stayed with Subaru after the tranny issue for a variety of reasons; $2500 in Subaru bucks, sales guy sympathy leading to an amazing deal my '18, and a second kiddo on the way (can't beat the back seat in an AWD sedan under 35K). This is probably my last Subaru, we went with the new Tiguan vs. the forester, I am eyeing CPO Q50 turbo and Red Sport models now... Sorry for the long post but needed to vent to an understanding crowd..
