Consumer Description

I HAD AN ACCIDENT WITH MY 2017 SUBARU LEGACY AND INITIALLY SAW A DEER TO MY LEFT AND TRIED TO STEER SLIGHTLY RIGHT. NEXT THING I KNOW THE COPS ARE THERE AND TOOK ME TO HOSPITAL. THEY SAID THE CAR WENT OVER AN EMBANKMENT. IT HAD MASSIVE DAMAGE AND AFTER TWO MONTHS IN SHOP, STILL PULLS TO THE RIGHT. I NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL ON THIS CAR BUT IT WAS SENDING ME MESSAGES THROUGH STARLINK SAYING THERE WAS A POWER STEERING PROBLEM. I WILL TRY TO ATTACH THAT SCREEN SHOT. ALSO THE DEALER THAT SOLD US THE CAR HAS BEEN NO HELP AT ALL. THE CAR WAS DRIVING AND IN MOTION. NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED EITHER.
