Well our Ascent has accumulated over 2000 miles since we took delivery end of August. It has been on two overnight trips and numerous local trips in addition to the daily grind of commuting too and from work.
Wife still loves the car and it has been an quantum jump over her 2016 2.5 OB Limited and a much better ride than my 2017 3.6R Touring.
To date it has done everything without issues, we acknowledge city MPG isn't great, highway MPG has been acceptable but not better than the 3.6R driven at similar speeds. It will cruise much faster and is deceptive in apparent speed so one must watch the speedo if you are ahead of the traffic flow on the interstate.
Had our first issue this weekend when we programed the hotel address into the navigation system for a location about 80 miles away. System would recognize the address and after we selected it to proceed, the calculation process would initiate and then hang at 33~35% followed by an error message that it could not complete the route calculations. Next attempted two more addresses in same city and got the same results each time. Loaded a previously used address and the system would complete the task.
Next got out my trusty standby Garmin and loaded the same addresses. Worked as expected.
During the next hour of driving to location attempted to use car OEM with no success. Finally when we had driven about 3/4 the distance OEM nav system worked as intended. We use it the remainder of that day and next, but when it was time to return home it failed to calculate my home address after our first stop. Again it went to 33% and generated error message. I knew how to get home so never used Garmin, we stopped once more closer to home and it again worked.
Today attempted to use the hotel address used over the weekend and again got the 33% calculation error. Guess it is time to call dealer. We attempted to use Subaru Service through the concierge services on our way Friday but all they could do is verify from their end that everything was green and working.
