Likely the A/C compressor as some previously stated. A mechanic can do a diagnostic to see what is going on. Mine went out at 72K and had to be replaced at the dealer out of warranty, but SoA gave me $400 credit.
CVT has a lag going into reverse/drive. Just remember to stay on the brake when after switching for at least a second before moving.
Don’t listen to all the CVT hate. It’s actually a pretty solid transmission, works well, and shifts fast. Drive modes make it fun as well.
Better than to deal with rev hang, getting gear stuck in 1st gear (TSB on 2015 models, I had this issue in the road twice), and trying to add mods like a short throw shifter and shifter stop to make the shifter actually adequate.
Too bad the current WRX GT costs 45K, but with inflation it is what it is.
Pros: solid transmission, works well, shifts fast, drive modes fun
Cons: AC compressor went out, CVT has lag, rev hang, gear stuck in 1st

Cons: original windshield disaster

How did my dealership convert my aftermarket cabin air filter to am OEM filter then show me how it was covered in mold & leaves in the waiting room?
They are the worst deal. They charge like what $93 now for an oil change? I can get a case of 12 quarts for like $24. And do it my self. I can’t even remember what they tried to quote me for a brake job. I got brakes and rotors for under $200.
Pros: DIY is cheaper
Cons: worst deal, overpriced
OEM glass is dog shit. I'm on windshield number 5 in 3 years this one has lasted the longest at 7 months.

Vehicle:
Subaru Outback
The OEM radiator sucks anyway.
Cons: poor quality

I have an old groupe A Subaru homologation car. It’s on its 6th engine which is also currently blown. There are NO MORE ENGINES. NONE. ZERO. NADA. NOTHING. So now I have to buy a crashed wrx and swap the whole drivetrain over if I want the car to move under its own power. My frs just……… I mean…… 250 in brake pads and fluid, and 500 bucks in tires. Oh and a 90$ oil change before and after.
Cons: engine failure, expensive repairs
