Just turned 5,000 miles this weekend on our Ascent ... after 5 months of ownership, thinking of selling it.
Haven't had any major issues but overall the Ascent just feels 'finicky'. Little things like the radio presets disappearing - or the radio simply not turning on - or the 'remove key fob' message on the dash screen while driving down the road which requires shutting the vehicle down and restart to go away - to doors not locking after exiting the vehicle which requires restarting and turning off again to lock - to the liftgate not always going up when using the button on the dash ... all finicky little things that seem to point to potential future issues.
Not new to the Subaru brand and realize they can be quirky vehicles ... but in comparison, our 2018 Subaru Crosstrek seems like a much better engineered and made vehicle compared to the 2019 Ascent.
Again, nothing major just little things that may make us go back to Toyota for our main family vehicle ...
