File date	20/02/21
Component	SERVICE BRAKES
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	There is a dangerous design that you need to be aware of. We had eye drops stored in the subaru console in the nook by the parking brake button. While we were driving, the weight of a purse must have pushed down on the drops causing it to act like lever and pull up on the parking brake button. The brakes activated with the car coming to a very abrupt stop. The vehicle following us (too closely) rear ended us. $15,000 worth of damage to a 2019 subaru. Subaru is not the only manufacturer to have the parking break button in the console where it is a convenient spot for eye drops, chap stick, or make-up.
