problem #1

Jun 092011

Outback 4-cyl

  • 27,000 miles
The engine stalls while at a stop or coming to a stop. The rpms suddenly drop and the engine stops. Car will restart and operate normally for a while but the problem has been persistent and is occurring more frequently. The dealer could not replicate the problem and returned the vehicle to us. The next day, it did the same thing. This is a dangerous situation especially when making a turn and experiencing a stall, loss of power steering, and acceleration.
