NHTSA Complaint #11331330 — 2019 SUBARU ASCENT

IF NOT STARTED FOR SEVERAL DAYS IT SEEMS SLUGGISH TO START. A 10 DAY PERIOD THIS MONTH OF NOT STARTING RESULTED IN INABILITY TO START. I CALLED SUBARU STARLINK AND WAS SENT A TOW TRUCK DRIVER TO GIVE ME A "JUMP"., WHICH WORKED. I WAS TOLD BY TOW TRUCK DRIVER THAT THE ALTERNATOR SEEMED TO BE FUNCTION---BY THE DIAGNOSTICS ON HIS BATTERY JUMP STARTER. THEN HE REPORTED HE HAS HAD TO JUMP NUMEROUS NEWER SUBARU VEHICLES. LATER THAT DAY, WITH THE VEHICLE PARKED IN MY GARAGE, I BRIEFLY-- SEVERAL MINUTES, A HIGH PITCHED WHINE/ELECTRIC LIKE, COMING FROM THE PASSENGER REAR CORNER NEAR WHEEL WHEEL WHER THE FUEL INTAKE IS LOCATED. THAT SOUND STOPPED SHORTLY LATER. I HAVE STARTED MY SUBARU DAILY OR EVERY DAY TO ENSURE IT WILL START. I SUSPECT SOME ELECTRICAL ITEM MAY BE DRAINING THE BATTERY--- WHICH ALREADY SEEMS UNDERSIZED FOR ALL THE NEWER ELECTRICAL ITEMS IN NEWER VEHICLES. COULD THA FUEL SYSTEM BE AT FAULT? I HAD HEARD ABOUT A FUEL PUMP RECALL/ISSUE. I AM NOT TRUSTING THIS VEHICLE TO START---AS EXPECTED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.
