general problems of the 2015 Subaru Impreza

Power steering failed, extremely hard to turn steering wheel, eps light on dash illuminated. Luckily happened in driveway. Thinking back steering seemed odd last week was less effort to turn left as opposed to turning right.

2015 Subaru Impreza key stuck in the steering key housing. Vehicle was in p position and safety parking brake was lift. Unable to remove the key. It is happened everytime I park the car.

After turning the steering significantly to the right (full lock is not necessary), the car then *often* pulls significantly to the left. The same thing *sometimes* happens after a left turn. And, the 'floaty' steering is a loss of on-center feel and the steering generally feels like I'm driving a 1970s era big-old-Buick. . . Absolutely no road feel or feedback. My mechanic diagnosed this problem as a defective steering rack -- a $2000 repair. They also said that this was the second time they had seen this problem in a 2015 Subaru Impreza within a month! indicating that this is a larger, systemic problem with the design or production of the 2015 Impreza! the dealer has confirmed that the steering rack is defective and discounted the repair by $1500. This is an excellent good-will gesture, and I accepted it. However, I remain concerned about the safety of other Impreza's. In particular, most drivers may not notice the problem and it may result in them drifting from their lane or otherwise losing control of their vehicle.

2015 Subaru Impreza. Key gets stuck in ignition following turning the car off, juggling the key does not dislodge it from the ignition. Requires the car to be turned on again, moved, wheel direction changed, and turned off again. Very frequent issue (every other time driving). Sometimes key will not dislodge and requires multiple efforts. This appears to be a common issue for the vehicle based on internet searches and should be corrected by the manufacturer. Local dealership mentioned to keep turning the car on and off until it no longer works, then repair will cost 500+ dollars.
