Consumer Description
MY CAR LOSSES POWER WHILE I AM DRIVING. I MERGED INTO TRAFFIC ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY, AND WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS ACROSS THE NORTH & SOUTH LANES, I LOST POWER. LUCKILY ALL TRAFFIC SLOWED OR STOPPED UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO MOVE MY CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW, I HAVE HAD IT TO MY DEALER TWICE AND WAS GIVEN ANSWERS LIKE BRAKE PROBLEMS. RETURNING TO THE DEALERSHIP 12/19/2019 FOR THE THIRD TIME, BEFORE I AM KILLED, OR CAUSE A MULTI-CAR ACCIDENT AND OTHER PEOPLE TO BE INJURED. I HAVE ALSO REPORTED THIS TO CONSUMER REPORTS AND SUBARU'S MAIN LOCATION. PLEASE NOTIFY ME OF ANYTHING ELSE I CAN SEEK OUT AS TO NOT BE KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED IN THIS CAR. THANKS.
