Description of the problem	My 2014 subaru forester was sitting in my garage. I heard this horrible, almost explosive noise and found that my left coil spring snapped! This car has 68k miles and has never carrier heavy loads or traveled rough roads. I drive all highway. Super shocking to have this happen while it is just sitting, but i cringe to think if this happened 1 day earlier driving 22 miles from work or with my family. The coil was just completely sheared off. My car is sitting on the crossbar very close to sitting directly on my tire. Waiting for the assessment from subaru to see if it caused any additional damage.

A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
