| Description of the problem | There has been an issue with this car since i first got it. While driving, all of the lights on the dashboard will suddenly come on; causing the abs to be disabled. The problem still persists and now that it is winter, i almost got into an accident after my car slid into an intersection because it couldn't stop fast enough due to the snow and then abs disabled. This car has threads and forums galore on this issue. Many people are having this issue and subaru refuses to do anything about it. This car should be recalled for the abs being disabled for no reason while driving. It is a danger! |
