Subaru driver's tip: how to keep the trunk open while camping without draining the battery
Original source: vietnam.vn

Adrienne, a Subaru Ascent owner, shared a TikTok hack: using a carabiner to trick the trunk latch into thinking it's closed while the door remains open. This prevents the car from activating interior lights and sensors, saving battery power during long camping stops. The video garnered hundreds of thousands of views, with commenters noting that carabiners are a common Subaru owner accessory.
