Description of the problem	What has been happening is i will be driving down the road (does not matter how fast i am going) and all of a sudden all the lights come on and i lose acceleration and control of vehicle. Each time it has been towed to subaru they cannot recreate the problem so it cannot be fixed. This last time i was on a very busy road going about 55 mph and all of a sudden again my check engine lights etc came on and i lost acceleration and power. I quickly checked my rearview mirror to make sure no one was too close behind me. It was very scary and i was able to coast and abruptly turn into an enterprise rental. I was lucky i was not hit from behind or have my kids in car. This last time too when the tow truck arrived the car would not turn on. I am now completely uncomfortable driving a car that consistently has had the same issue that no one can fix.
