On 4/22/2018 at 2:33 pm i was driving along i-80 south of hazelton, pa (https://goo.gl/maps/gjhn82kh8pc2). I was going 65. The temperature was about 60. There were no cars in front of us or behind us and the nearest overpass was several thousand feet ahead of us. We were not in a falling rock area. Suddenly, there was a very loud popping sound. Immediately, there was a loud wooshing sound of air and what sounded…

Complaint: subaru powertrain extended warranty is meaningless because my southern california dealer will not even look at my car to determine whether or not my frequent engine stall problem upon braking is due to a defective torque converter. Or some other cause. My 2010 subaru outback has had all recommended services and has only 53k miles. No check engine or other warning lights have turned on. Yesterday, the…

I replaced the original tires in september 2013 with yokohama yk580s (225/60 r17). The mileage at the time of replacement was 49,577. This week the vehicle developed a strong vibration while in motion which was caused by a bulge over approximately 15 of the tread surface of the tire positioned on the right front wheel. The tire air pressure has remained constant during this structural degradation. The mileage on the…

The car shutters or stalls when coming to a stop, both regular or sudden stop. It happens when i pull up to a stop sign, light or need to stop in highway traffic. It has happened on numerous occasions giving me reason for concern for my life and the lives of my passengers. Subaru has diagnosed the problem as a torque converter. I also have the diagnosis of a faulty torque converter from an independent auto mechanic.…

We bought our car in 2010 its a subaru outback. There has always been an issue with a loss of power. The dealership at the time said it was caused by excessive carbon build up on the pistons. Its now 2016 and the car will stutter and shut off when you are braking at red lights. To try to beat the stutter and stall, i find myself having to ease off the brakes and try to reapply my brakes to see if it won't shut off.…

When driving and approaching a traffic light the car will begin to stutter as if there is a clog in the system. Then it will shut off. I contacted subaru regarding the issue when we first had the car because there was always a loss of power. Our model is the outback 2010. They inspected and said it was a carbon build up in the pistons that would cause this issue. There hasn't been any recalls or subaru notices about…

The drivers side airbag…
