Consumer Description

CAR DROPS RPM AND STUMBLES TO ALMOST STALLING DURING BREAKING AT CITY SPEEDS ALSO DOES THE SAME IN LOW SPEED REVERSE SITUATION LIKE PARKING. DASH LIGHTS UP BUT NO CODE STORED. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS ISSUE HAS PRESENTED ITSELF. I SPOKE TO A DEALER REFERENCE THE REVERSE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. SUBARU CLAIMS TO BE ONE OF THE SAFEST VEHICLES ON THE ROAD? THIS IS NOT SAFE. THE CHANCE OF BEING REAR ENDED AT HIGHWAY SPEED COULD BE DEADLY!
