NHTSA Complaint #11418671 — 2015 SUBARU LEGACY

When I was in the garage (about 2 months ago) trying to start my car, it tried to start but did not. Repeated attempts to start the car failed, and it acted like the battery was low. I measured the battery voltage and it was only 5.9 volts. I recharged the battery and took it to an auto parts place to get a new battery. They tested the battery and said it was still good and would not recommend replacing it. The car has been fine since. I realize this is not exactly a safety issue except if it had happened someplace remote and not in my garage where I could work on it it could have been bad. I just found out there is a class action lawsuit against Subaru over their CAN system that sometimes fails (does not go to sleep) and causes the battery to run down faster than it should. It sounds to me like that is what happened to my car. If you are keeping up with complaints about Subaru's CAN system I guess you can add mine to the list (or database). Thanks for your efforts.
