Engine Failure problems of the 2015 Subaru Forester

Vehicle consumes oil at irregular pace. 1 quart needs to be added every 1,500-2,000 miles. This means using 3 additional quarts of oil in between oil changes. I am concerned about the environmental impact and for catastrophic engine failure.

My 2015 Subaru Forester engine failed 3 times during highway driving. Aug 26, 2018. I was in the express lanes when the gas pedal stopped responding and the car quickly decelerated. I merged to the shoulder. The car rolled to a stop. I tried to start it and immediately it turned on. I was not low on gas. Then oct 9, 2018, I was driving downhill on the freeway, with 20 miles to empty when the engine did the same thing. I quickly merged through traffic to the shoulder. Police suggested I ran out of gas. The third time, Feb 11, 2019, I was in middle of 5 lanes of highway traffic, driving 75 mph with 70 miles to empty when the engine shut off. It was night, the lights to the vehicle remained on. I quickly merged right, but there was no shoulder as they were doing construction. I called 911. Everyone around me was going 70-80mph. I was terrified we would be killed by a car who didn't see us at night. The police arrived in 15 minutes and bumped us off the freeway. Aaa arrived in 45 min. . Right before aaa arrived I tried to start the engine again, as I had been doing all along, and the engine started right up. I was told it wasn't a fuel problem because it started again without needing to add gas. Two Subaru dealerships have tried to re-create the problem. Neither could. They told me they can't repair anything since they can't determine what is wrong - deeming my warranty useless for this issue. I tried to get buy back from Subaru of America. They will not do a buyback because there haven't been repair orders. I have not driven the car since Feb 11, 2019. It is a dangerous car. It will fail again on the freeway and whoever is around is in danger of injury or death. The dealership wants me to pick up the car. The Forester has 58000 miles when it last failed.

The contact owns a 2015 Subaru Forester. While driving approximately 70 mph, the instrument panel illuminated and the engine failed. The vehicle was able to restart; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 27,000. The VIN was not available.
