Description of the problem	My subaru legacy has been recently stalling when coming to a stop. It shudders and if you do not give it gas or place in neutral, the engine will die. I have read that this is caused from a faulty torque converter that subaru is aware of but has failed to issue a recall. I'm not sure i would buy another product that isn't fully backed and supported by the manufacturer.

What is Recall?
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.
What is Failure?
