NHTSA Complaint #11349686 — 2014 SUBARU IMPREZA

AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON (RED STICK FIGURE GETTING HIT IN THE FACE WITH WITH AIRBAG) ILLUMINATES IN DASHBOARD AT RANDOM TIMES. PASSENGER AIRBAG IS SWITCHED TO ON WHEN NO ONE IS IN THE SEAT, BUT TURNS OFF WHEN PASSENGER IS PRESENT. THE WEIGHT OF A CELLPHONE CAN TRIGGER PASSENGER AIRBAG TO COME ON WHICH THEY ARE CLAIMING IS NORMAL. WHEN DRIVING ALONE PASSENGER SEATBELT ALARM WILL DING FORCING ME TO KEEP PASSENGER SEATBELT PLUGGED IN MOST OF TIME. IVE TAKEN THE CAR IN MULTIPLE TIMES TO TWO DIFFERENT SUBARU DEALERSHIP BUT THEY BOTH CLAIM EVERYTHING IS WORKING IN PERFECT ORDER. THE NOTES I USE TO DESCRIBE THIS ISSUE IS ALWAYS DELETED WHEN I ARRIVE AT DEALERSHIP. I DO NOT EVEN WANT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND CANT AFFORD THE DIAGNOSTIC FEES ON TOP OF MISSING DAYS FROM WORK. THE ISSUE HAPPENS WHEN CAR IS PARKED OR DRIVING. A LITTLE RESEARCH SHOWS SUBARU IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BUT CONTINUES TO PRETEND NOTHING IS WRONG - THEY INSTEAD OFFER ME TO TRADE IN VEHICLE. I WOULD RATHER DRIVE VEHICLE OFF A CLIFF THAN TO HAVE THEM RESELL VEHICLE TO ANOTHER PERSON WHO WILL END UP GOING THROUGH WHAT I WENT THROUGH SPENDING HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS OR WORSE - AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING CAUSING INCREASED INJURY OR DEATH.
