1996 Subaru Legacy Owner Comments

problem #2

My daughter spun her 1996 Subaru Legacy wagon while trying to miss a deer at about 45 mph. She hit a tree going backwards. In the collision the seat back broke on the drivers seat. This caused her to hit her head and neck and she suffered a broken neck. The seat back should not have broken in a rear end collision. The car was in good shape and only had 60,000 miles.
