NHTSA Complaint #11287583 — 2019 SUBARU CROSSTREK

HI. I PURCHASE MY 2019 SUBARU CROSSTREK IN OCTOBER OF 18 BECAUSE I DECIDED TO SUCK IT UP AND HAVE A PAYMENT TO ENSURE I HAD A SAFE VEHICLE FOR MYSELF AND FOR MY SON. SINCE WE ALWAYS PURCHASE SUBARUS THROUGH MY WORK, I WENT THAT ROUTE BECAUSE I'VE BEEN VERY PLEASED WITH THEM ESPECIALLY WITH SAFETY. IN MAY OF 2000 19, I WAS DRIVING TO HARRISBURG FOR WORK AND I HAD MY SON WITH ME AND A WHOLE EGG THAT WAS PRESENTING AT THE CONFERENCE WE WERE HEADED TO. ON THE WAY THERE, ON 22 EAST WHERE THERE WAS A LOT OF CONSTRUCTION BUT A HIGHWAY, I WENT TO GO AROUND A TRUCK WHERE I ACCELERATED AND WENT TO GO INTO THE SLOWER LANE ONCE I PASSED HIM BUT ALL THE SUDDEN, I LOST COMPLETE POWER AND MY CAR SHUT OFF!!! I HURRIED UP AND GOT IT BACK ON AND SOMEHOW THE TRUCK THAT I JUST PASSED WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER BUT IT WAS SUPER SCARY. SADLY, THIS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES ON THE STRIP WHERE MY CAR JUST SHUT OFF SO I JUST STAYED IN THE SLOW LANE AND PRAYED WHILE I WAS IN ONE LANE BECAUSE I CALLED SUBARU AND THEY TOLD ME THAT.. I'M JUST RECALLING ALL THIS NOW BECAUSE I GOT THE RECALL IN THE MAIL. I HAD CALLED SUBARU THE WEEK BEFORE I WENT ON THIS TRIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A FEW IGNITION THING. AND THAT I SHOULD GET GAS AND SEE IF ALL THE LIGHTS TURNED OFF BECAUSE ALL THE LIGHTS AND TURN ON AFTER THE FIRST TIME IT IS SHUT OFF. LONG STORY SHORT, THEY KEPT IT FOR ABOUT A THOUSAND MILES TO TEST IT OUT BECAUSE I WAS ADAMANT THAT I DIDN'T WANT IT BACK UNTIL IT WAS SAFE SO THEY REPLACE THE TIRE SENSOR WHICH I HAD KNOWN FOR MY LAST VEHICLE WOULD NOT CAUSE THE CAR TO SHUT OFF BUT THEY ASSURED ME THIS WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS SINCE EXCEPT FOR THE CONTINUED ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE INSIDE THE CAR AND WHERE THE CAR RUNS AT NIGHT EVEN AFTER ITS SHUT OFF.
