        How this compares

        2024 Subaru Crosstrek115
        Median 2024 model here (52 vehicles)140
        Median 2024 SUV here (32)155

        115 complaints is 1.2 times fewer than the median 2024 model on this site and 1.3 times fewer than the median 2024 SUV. Among the 5 Crosstrek model years here it ranks 5th for complaints. Counts follow sales volume as much as reliability, so a truck that sells 700,000 a year draws more reports than a sedan that sells 200,000.

        48 complaints came in 2025. Owners file in waves when a problem gets press or an investigation, so a spike measures attention as much as failures.
