Legacy

  • 500 miles
2011 Subaru Legacy 2.5I cvt premium model : at highway cruising speeds of 60+ mph, the vehicle feels "wobbly". the car feels as though it is getting swayed from side to side, even on good road in good conditions. I think it has to do with the AWD system. I slow down at times when I sense this as it makes me feel very unsafe. It causes a feeling of loss of control of the vehicle. This happens during normal weather conditions (no excessive winds or cross wind loading). This is noticeable to the passengers as well. The swaying or pitching happens in right as well as left directions. No amount of steering wheel control seems to counter this. Tire pressures are accurate to specifications and the car is brand new to me Feb 5, 2011 and has about 700 miles.

Engine speed surges occasionally ( 4 episodes in 6 months) when moving very slowly (parking) and wheel is being turned. Hard braking stops car and engine speed returns to normal.
