Consumer Description
MY 2011 SUBARU OUTBACK IS EXPERIENCING SHUDDERING AND STALLS WHEN GOING DOWNHILL OR UPHILL, COMING TO A STOP AT CITY STREET INTERSECTIONS, RESULTING IN THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF. IT OCCURS RANDOMLY AND I NEARLY GOT IN ACCIDENTS WITH DRIVERS BEHIND ME HAVING TO REACT TO THE SUDDEN, FULL STOPS. IN ONE WEEK, IT HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. I FEAR DRIVING IN THE CAR ALONE AND CERTAINLY WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR! UPON NOTIFYING MY SUBARU DEALERSHIP OF THIS EXPERIENCE, THEY STATED IT WAS AN UPDATE I NEED. I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTICE FROM SUBARU OF SAID UPDATE. I HAVE BEEN DILIGENT WITH SERVICE AND ANY UPDATE/REPAIR SUGGESTED BY SUBARU DEALERSHIP. I FEEL THIS IS AN EMERGENT SAFETY CONCERN AND NOTIFICATION TO SUBARU OWNERS!
