2017 Subaru IMPREZA problems and owner complaints

EYESIGHT SYSTEM KEEPS TURNING ITSELF OFF. REAR CAMERA HAS FAR MORE PROBLEMS AFTER FEDERAL REAR CAMERA RECALL. CAMERA OFTEN DOESN'T APPEAR AND LEAVES ME WITH A BLANK SCREEN. EYESIGHT SYSTEM SHUTS OFF RANDOMLY AND RESETS AFTER A RESTART. NOTHING ELSE CHANGES BUY A RESTART, AND PROBLEM IS SOLVED. SOUND ALSO CEASES TO COME OUT OF THE RADIO, TOTAL SILENCE, REGARDLESS OF INPUT AND VOLUME SETTING. ALL OF THE ABOVE IS RANDOM. CAR'S BATTERY RUNS DOWN AT TIMES, AS THE SCREEN STAYS ON ON THE RADIO, EVEN WHEN TURNED OFF. TWICE THE CAR WOULD NOT START. WE N…

RADIO CONTROLS "FROZE" BEFORE I EVEN DROVE IT OFF THE DEALER'S LOT. COULD NOT SELECT AF OR FM. SATELLITE RADIO, HOWEVER, WORKED. FIX WAS EITHER TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY OR REMOVE AND REINSERT A FUZE. DEALER MECHANIC SHOWED ME HOW TO USE THE FUZE METHOD. CAR WAS STATIONARY AND HAD BEEN RUNNING FOR 5-10 MINUTES. I DID NOT TEST TO SEE IF OTHER ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONS WERE IMPACTED AS WELL.

UPON ENTERING THE VEHICLE WHICH WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND PREPARING TO START I PLACED MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL IT PROCEEDED TO TRAVEL TO THE FIREWALL WITH NO RESISTANCE.

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.

WITH STEERING WHEEL HELD STRAIGHT OR TURNING, IN TOWN OR HIGHWAY SPEEDS, WHEELS WILL PULL LEFT OR RIGHT AS ROAD SURFACE VARIES CAUSING CAR TO MOVE IN LANE, PUTTING PRESSURE ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO BE CORRECTED. IT IS AS IF THE CAR WANTS TO STEER ITSELF. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE SINCE LEASING THE VEHICLE.

I bought a "Subaru Impreza" 2017, and in the span of 4 years, had numerous issues, including: -dead battery -car suddenly stopping on highway: no electroninc warning whatsoever -over 6 possibly lethal recalls (mainly pertaining to car electronics andbrakes), which might cause car to stop moving/responsing to steering/braking at any moment, which I send in for repair ASAP. Afterwards, I was assured all the electronics and brake components had been checked, and I would be safe to drive everyday for work. -This week, after all these "repaired" re…
