2011 Subaru OUTBACK Wheels Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	972282
Internal NHTSA #	10504712
Manufacurer	Subaru of America, Inc.
Brand	SUBARU
Model	OUTBACK
Model Year	2011
File date	19/11/12
Component	WHEELS
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Repeated severe shimming of car when dirt or mud gets in wheel wells. In winter any slush or snow on the wheels causes a control problem. Car and steering wheel shake severely. Once inside of wheels are pressure washed problem disappears, only to reappear when dirt again gets into the wheels. Discussion with the dealer indicated that this is a common problem especially in winter. Internet search indicates this also is a common problem especially in the 2011 subaru outback's. This is a design flaw in the design of the wheels which pick up debris on a large flat ledge. I feel this is a safety issue as control of vehicle is compromised when you have severe shaking.
