| Description of the problem | Irregular battery and electric issues. When car was 3-1/2 years old we drove 2 highway hours for a meeting. After the meeting (while still in the parking lot) the car was dead. We jumped it were driving toward a nearby subaru dealership. The car acted irregular on the highway. It had limited power and was lurching. We limped into the subaru dealership about 20 miles away. They couldn't find or diagnose an issue. But, eventually re-charged the battery and it held. At age 4, the car died in my driveway. We jumped it and the charge held. The driver side controls can no longer open the front passenger side window. |
