While driving 65-mph on the highway, the driver lost control and was involved in an accident. The driver isn't sure if the steering mechanism fell off and caused the accident.

Outback 4WD

Steering noise- whenever going over rough roads, turning into driveway, turning onto unlevel road, front end makes clunking noise. Dealer says Subaru is aware of it and it is normal for the car. The noise comes from the manner in which they designed the steering. Still don't think a brand new car should exhibit this type of problem without a fix available.
