Consumer Description
THE CAR STALLS WHEN COMING TO A FAST STOP AND SOMETIMES SHUDDERS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL WHEN SLOWING DOWN. THIS WAS HORRIBLE ON THE FREEWAY DURING TRAFFIC AS I HAD TO RESTART MY CAR NUMEROUS TIME. GOT CLOSE TO GETTING REAR ENDED A FEW TIMES. I TOOK MY CAR TO SUBARU AND IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM BUT INSTEAD OF DOING A RECALL THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY TO 100,000 MILES. MY CAR NOW HAS 103425 AND NOT COVERED. IT STARTED AROUND 102250 MILES WHILE IN CALIFORNIA ON MY WAY BACK HOME. I HAD TO PAY $2490.59 TO HAVE A SAFE CAR TO DRIVE. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WHEN IT COMES TO TRANSMISSION STALLING WHILE DRIVING. HOW IS IT EVEN LEGAL THAT THIS ISN'T A RECALL.
