I live in San Francisco on a VERY steep hill (22% grade) and my short 6' driveway transitions quickly from the street slope to level garage floor. As a result my front driver's side tire lifts off the ground when pulling into the garage.
I just replaced my 1996 Subaru Legacy L (255k miles) with a 2019 Subaru Forester Limited. The Legacy easily pulled into the garage despite the front driver's side tire lifting off the ground. So imagine my shock when the brand new Forester is now having issues.
As I pull into the garage the front driver's side tire briefly lifts off the ground. In the Forester this wheel spins while in the air and leaves marks and tire shavings as it touches back down while spinning. (Not good for everyday activity.) In the Legacy this wheel didn't spin when off the ground. I've tried using X-Mode with only slight improvement.
Why does the 2019 Forester have this issue and the 1996 Legacy does not? How can I stop the wheel off the group from spinning so I don't have to replace the front driver's side tire every 6 months?
