Subaru Crosstrek Owners Manual: Driving tips
- Always apply the foot or parking brake when the vehicle is stopped in the "D" or "R" position.
- Make sure to apply the parking brake when parking your vehicle. Do not hold the vehicle with only the mechanical friction of the transmission.

knock when the vehicle rapidly accelerates
or rapidly pulls away from a standstill.
