Description of the problem	My subaru (and others '05-'09) have serious computer issues causing the car to stall out in the middle of traffic. I got the car special edition of consumer reports and the article below is no joke. Subaru outback '05-'09 have gotten terrible reviews for the following: major engine issue and drive issues and more. The dealer and headquarters will not acknowledge that there may be a serious need for a recall. When disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, the car will stall out the next day in the middle of traffic. Car ran but then stalled out in the middle of traffic. I was able to get it off the road eventually and take it to the dealership. The dealership did not want to acknowledge the issue and wanted to charge me $200 for diagnosis. I do not feel safe driving my car because i need to get a new battery ($225 at subaru which i can't afford and $119 at firestone), however, firestone does not have the memory stick subaru does and i run a very good chance of stalling out in traffic after the work is done at a non subaru dealership. Neither the dealer nor headquarters will acknowledge this article that this safety issue has happened to others too. This is very unsafe for me and others on the road here is an article which describes exactly what happened to me. A recall needs to be involved and subaru must be waiting for a major accident to happen. I am not willing to put my life on the line anymore by driving this unsafe vehicle. This article provides exactly what is going on. Http://www. Computerworld. Com/article/2467230/enterprise-applications/please-don-t-reboot-the-subaru. Html subaru hq lost the email twice and i am very afraid to drive this car. Austin subaru and subaru headquarters acted like they remedied the situation by cleaning a different part.
