| Description of the problem | I bought this 2013 subaru legacy limited on june 12,2019 and a week later the emergency brake light and cruise control did not work and the lights were on the dashboard. I brought the car to a subaru dealer in wilmington, nc and was told that it needed the control panel for the emergency brake which effects the cruise control. This same problem is a current recall in subaru legacy manual transmission and i feel that there should be a recall with the automatic transmission as well since my car is affected by the same problem. The car was just out of warranty and just over 100,000 miles . The repair is over $1200 and it is just not right that this has happened and it is not a recall. Please issue a recall for this same problem as the manual transmissions on the automatic transmissions. I can be reached at [xxx] . Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6). |
