I bought a "Subaru Impreza" 2017, and in the span of 4 years, had numerous issues, including: -dead battery -car suddenly stopping on highway: no electroninc warning whatsoever -over 6 possibly lethal recalls (mainly pertaining to car electronics andbrakes), which might cause car to stop moving/responsing to steering/braking at any moment, which I send in for repair ASAP. Afterwards, I was assured all the electronics and brake components had been checked, and I would be safe to drive everyday for work. -This week, after all these "repaired" recalls, my car suddenly while I was driving on one of the busiest/most dangerous highways in our area: it took me several minutes to even manage to pull onto the shoulder. During that time, I was almost hit 5 times, and had to call CHP to come take me. I could have easily been killed. and the CHP operator clearly told me not to drive this car again. -The next day, I got to Subaru dealership which sold me this car, asking for a loaner, and free repair. Although Subaru provided the loaner, they also gave me a 1133.98$ to fix the electronic issue, which they assured me "is not my fault, but not on the recall list, so even though it malfunctioned, I have to pay, even though their negligence almost cost me my life. I'm curious to know how many other Subaru 2017 drivers had similar experience.

Impreza

  • 500 miles
I purchased a 2017 Subaru Impreza limited on 7.30.17 from bob barker Subaru in carlsbad, ca. The car, until yesterday, had approximately 500 miles on the odometer. On 8.9.17 at 1830 my son was driving the car and his friend was in the passenger seat. The car was struck on the left front side by a Ford Fusion entering the intersection after the signal had changed. The airbags deployed. What happened next is unbelieveable!! my son reports that the smell of smoke caused him to awaken and scramble, with his friend, from the passenger side door and reach safety before the car was completely engulfed in flames. I do not understand how a frontal collision on a side street can cause a car to burst into an inferno. Please investigate this car's dangerous behavior in a rather ordinary collision. This incident did not result in loss of life or significant morbidity, but future drivers may not be so lucky. I would be happy to direct you to the towing company that has the car so you can investigate.
