Description of the problem	Subaru better take notice on this steering issue! It is a danger!!! When pedestrians are walking on the road and you need to swing a little wider around them, the lane keep pushes you towards the pedestrian!!! In addition to this, when driving at 55 and above, it constantly feels as if the wind is blowing you around! There is no wind! This is a danger and there have been several times now, that i have almost went off the road!!! Should i turn off my lane keep assist to stop this from happening!?!? I have had this car for 2 weeks, and so far i feel like i made a huge mistake getting this car!!!!! I would like to add that this is my 4th subaru. I am loyal to the brand. If i knew it was going to be like this, i would not have bought another!! Or i would have bought a lower model. I have the 2018 limited outback. I my opinion buyer beware!! Or get a lower model without these options!!!!
