FOLDING DOWN THE REAR
SEATBACK
WARNING
. When you fold down the seatback,
check that there are no passengers
or objects on the rear seat. Not
doing so creates a risk of injury or
property damage if the seatback
suddenly folds down.
. Never allow passengers to ride on
the folded rear seatback or in the
cargo area. Doing so may result in
serious injury or death.
. Secure all objects and especially
long items properly to prevent them
from being thrown around inside
the vehicle and causing serious
injury during a sudden stop, a
sudden steering maneuver or a
rapid acceleration.
. When you return the seatback to its
original position, shake the seat-
back slightly to confirm that it is
securely fixed in place. If the seat-
back is not securely fixed in place,
the seatback may suddenly fold
down in the event of sudden
braking, or objects may move out
from the cargo area, which could
cause serious injury or death.

I just got a 25 Forrester sport and the air flow on feet on high hardly come out. It sounds like the air is all coming out the dash. I took it to dealer they tell me it's how it's made. That other people complained about this. I'm taking it to another dealership for a 2nd opinion.
The air flow on the feet setting in the 2025 Subaru Forester Sport may feel weak because the climate control system uses sensors to prioritize airflow based on seat occupancy. If only the driver’s seat is occupied, the system may operate in “DRIVER” mode, directing airflow mainly to the driver. To increase airflow to all areas, including the feet, the user must manually switch to “ALL” mode by touching the airflow icon.
