NHTSA Complaint #11150037 — 2012 SUBARU OUTBACK

VEHICLE STALLS UNEXPECTEDLY WHEN STOPPING. LOCAL MECHANIC STATES IT IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE AND HAS BEEN REPORTED BY MANY OWNERS OF THIS MODEL. I AM JUST OUTSIDE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND OVER 110,000 MILES. IT STARTED EARLIER WHEN MY WARRANTY WOULD HAVE COVERED IT BUT SUBARU DID NOT MAKE US AWARE OF THE POTENTIAL PROBLEM AND WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS CAUSING THIS. IT HAS CAUSED SOME CLOSE CALLS WHEN WE SUDDENLY HAVE TO STOP IN TRAFFIC. HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND SEVERAL TIMES. SHOULD BE A SAFETY RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE ABOUT THE MIDDLE OF JUNE AND HAS HAPPENED ALMOST EVERY TIME WE USE THE CAR LATELY. WE ARE ELDERLY AND CAN NOT AFFORD THE EXPENSIVE REPAIR JOB.
