We have a 2021 Subaru Outback.
We had to take it in to the dealer for servicing because the car battery died and wouldn't hold a charge.
Turns out it was a known problem covered under manufacturer warranty, that the battery was specced too small for Outbacks equipped with idle stop and couldn't handle drawing so much power so often.
Incidentally, the properly specced battery and associated parts that would need to be replaced would have cost around $400 if it wasn't covered under warranty.
