| Description of the problem | Torque converter assembly repair. When slowing down to a stop, the car shakes, shimmies and shuts off. I have to restart. This is very dangerous. I've spoken to subaru and they say they won't fix the problem on my car because it has 149k miles on it. They say they will give me 1,000 dollars toward purchase of a new car. I would like my car repaired. |
