2017 Subaru OUTBACK Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1497255
Internal NHTSA #	11129170
Manufacurer	Subaru of America, Inc.
Brand	SUBARU
Model	OUTBACK
Model Year	2017
File date	23/08/18
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Twice since purchased march 2017 electrical failures have caused all dashboard warning lights to go on; stability control, anti-lock, various driver aids have ceased to operate, and engine power was severely reduced (although car still ran). First failure was rectified within a few days, but current failure has had the car at the dealer for a month with no prospect of a repair. Car was running at the time of each failure. Dealer is saying the manufacturer is trying to design a wiring harness or instrument cluster that will work, but backorders are piling up across the country and he has no promise to give me. I'm curious about how long i must wait before i ask the dealer to replace the entire car with one that does work.
