TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 SUBARU IMPREZA. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO HER RESIDENCE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TAKEN TO HERITAGE SUBARU OWINGS MILLS (9808 REISTERSTOWN RD, OWINGS MILLS, MD 21117, (888) 553-0026) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN REPLACED THE BATTERY; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V743000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 9,500.

THE RPM IS DROPPING TO 6,000 TO 5,800. EVERY TIME I APPLY THE BREAK ALL THE WAY. FELT THE VIBRATION OF THE CAR EVERY TIME THE CAR IS STOP. TOOK IT TO THE 2 DIFFERENT DEALER STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT. I ALSO CALL THE SUBARU MAIN OFFICE THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. THEY EVEN SEND ME A GIFT FOR NO REASON AFTER I YELL AT THEM OVER THE PHONES.

THE LOW-OIL LIGHT HAS ILLUMINATED TWICE WITHIN THE FIRST 11,400 MILES. SUBARU OF AMERICA HAS TOLD THAT THIS OIL CONSUMPTION IS NORMAL. HOWEVER, WE FIND IT EXCESSIVE AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS. WE NEVER WOULD HAVE PURCHASED THE CAR IF WE HAD KNOWN ABOUT ITS OIL CONSUMPTION. SUBARU SHOULD PLACE A WINDOW STICKER WARNING DRIVERS TO CARRY EXTRA OIL TO PREVENT GETTING STRANDED WITH A BLOWN ENGINE.

I WAS ABOUT TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT THE LIGHT WHEN CAR SUDDENLY STALLED. BROUGHT IT TO LIBERTY SUBARU DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY AND TECH RELEASE IT AS SAFE TO DRIVE AFTER THEY CLAIMED TO FIX THE MAIN RELAY. A MINUTE AFTER I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP CAR STALLED AGAIN NEAR THE TRAIN TRACKS. THE 2017 SUBARU IMPREZA IS HAZARDOUS, UNSAFE, AND LIFE THREATENING. THIS TIME LIBERTY SUBARU SAID THEY HAVE TO REWIRE THE ENGINE. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING THIS CAR WITH MY CHILDREN. IT IS NOT SAFE FOR ME, MY FAMILY, AND OTHER DRIVERS.

3 DIFFERENT TIMES,ON DIFFERENT DAYS, WHEN MAKING A TURN AFTER STOPPED AT A LIGHT THE CAR SHUT OFF COMPLETELY AND HAD TO BE RESTARTED. NO INDICATION LIGHTS CAME ON AND MY RADIO STAYED PLAYING. A VERY DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE!! PUT 4 WAYS ON AND PRAYED I WOULD NOT GET HIT.

OIL CONSUMPTION . 1 QUART LOW AT 4,051 MILES. WARNING LIGHT INDICATOR CAME ON. ENGINE OIL LEVEL LOW. AT 6, 603 MILES PHYSICALLY CHECKED OIL LEVEL AND ONCE AGAIN 1 QUART LOW. SUBARU FACILITY PERFORMED OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND IT FAILED. SMALL BLOCK HAS BEEN ORDERED
