| Description of the problem | At approximately 50k miles, a year or so ago, this car developed a serious hesitation when taking off from a standstill or trying to gain speed from anywhere from 20 to 40 mph. Tried several methods to correct this suggested by our mechanic which included injector cleaner, high octane gas, more cleaner, better quality gas and nothing has worked, we have read that there numerous customers with this same problem but subaru does nothing. There should be a recall ore buy-back. We are concerned we will be in an accident because it won't maneuver properly while in traffic. |
