Consumer Description
I WAS DRIVING 70 MPH ON THE RIGHT MOST NORTHBOUND LANE OF I-75 AT MILE MARKER 452 IN FLORIDA. THE ROAD HAD BECOME WET FROM RECENT RAIN. THE REAR OF MY CAR SUDDENLY STARTED FISHTAILING TO THE RIGHT. THE FISHTAIL EVOLVED INTO FULL-BLOWN COUNTERCLOCKWISE SPINS WHICH TOOK THE CAR ALL THE WAY TO THE GUARDRAIL IN THE MIDDLE SHOULDER. THE IMPACT RESULTED IN THE CAR BEING TOTALED. I BELIEVE A DEFECT WITH THE ABS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM OR THE ALL WHEEL DRIVE CAUSED THE ACCIDENT. THE ROAD WAS PERFECTLY STRAIGHT, AND I DIDN'T APPLY THE BRAKES OR MAKE ANY SUDDEN STEERING CHANGES. I REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO SUBARU AND ASKED FOR AN INVESTIGATION OF THE WRECKED CAR. DESPITE THREE LETTERS AND A COMPLETE REPORT, THE COMPANY REFUSED TO INSPECT THE CAR. *TR
