NHTSA Complaint #10909314 — 2015 SUBARU IMPREZA

SOON AFTER DELIVERY, THERE WAS A NOTICEABLE LAG ( 2-20 SECONDS) BETWEEN THE TIME THE ACCELERATOR WAS DEPRESSED AND WHEN THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED. AT TIMES THIS LEAD TO DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. DEALER SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. THE ACCELERATOR MODULE WAS REPLACED ( NOT AT DEALER) AND THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS FOR A TIME, NOW THE SAME LAG HAS BEGUN TO OCCUR AT RANDOM TIMES, ESPECIALLY AFTER SLOWING TO LESS THAN 20 MILES PER HOUR. NOTE:-- THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR ONE OF TWO DRIVERS OF THE CAR. APPARENTLY THE POSITION OF THE DRIVER'S FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR MAKES THE DIFFERENCE. NEVER HAS THIS DRIVER HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM IN MORE THAN 50 YEARS OF DRIVING ALL TYPES OF VEHICLES ( THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM, NOT A SINGLE OR ISOLATED EVENT.)
