Which driving on the interstate at rush hour at 65 mph. . . With absolutely no warning or warning light my car stalled. When this happened the steeling went out along with the breaks and all power. I sat in the fast lane of traffic unable to safely exit my car for almost and hour until help arrived. I took the car to the dealership neil huffman in louisville ky where I purchased the car new 4 years ago. I was told the mass airflow sensor had failed. I was also told that they had no idea why this happened at 65 mph with no warning. I paid the 403. 00 repair and contact Subaru USA due to my concerns. Although I called several times and was on hold each time for up to 10 min and also emailed. . Still not response. This seems to be a major safety concern. I no longer feel safe in the car. . And plan to purchase a new car soon. . But am concerned someone else will be my car and be in danger.
