Consumer Description
I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR NOW. IT HESITATES, THEN LUNGES FORWARD VERY QUICKLY. THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGES THE PROBLEM, WHICH HE SAYS IS A PROBLEM IN ALOT OF LEGACY SEDANS, BUT SUBARU CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX IT. I AM ASKING THEM TO FIX IT OR REPLACE THE CAR WITH A SAFE VEHICLE. *AK
