2008 Subaru B9 TRIBECA Electronic Stability Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	659889
Internal NHTSA #	10215460

File date	26/09/07
Component	ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I was driving 70 mph on the right most northbound lane of i-75 at mile marker 452 in florida. The road had become wet from recent rain. The rear of my car suddenly started fishtailing to the right. The fishtail evolved into full-blown counterclockwise spins which took the car all the way to the guardrail in the middle shoulder. The impact resulted in the car being totaled. I believe a defect with the abs, electronic stability control system or the all wheel drive caused the accident. The road was perfectly straight, and i didn't apply the brakes or make any sudden steering changes. I reported the incident to subaru and asked for an investigation of the wrecked car. Despite three letters and a complete report, the company refused to inspect the car.
