I have a 2017 Subaru Outback and sometimes in the morning when I go out to the garage to leave the house I can hear what sounds like the hatchback trying to open. What’s causing this?

2 year old car still under warranty. Stop by your dealer and ask them this question. If it is a problem, they will fix it for free.

You should have it checked, but [this story may help explain what that noise is](http://bestride.com/news/why-do-i-sometimes-still-hear-things-running-in-my-car-after-i-shut-my-engine-off). I think it the evap system doing its thing. Let us know what you find out.
