general problems of the 2016 Subaru Outback

Almost after I took ownership of my vehicle in August 2024 from Lexus of pembroke pines, I noticed a light on the dashboard that would light intermittently. I purchased an extended warranty for almost four thousand dollars at the time of sale, thank god, as this car has needed a lot of work that I was never told about nor was anything in the carfax indicating so many issues. Subaru of pembroke pines service department took vehicle in to work on the air bag sensor as that is what seemed to be the issue. In the sixteen months that I have been paying off a loan, the car has been in service for at least a combined ten months plus. They have changed the sensor twice and have changed the harness twice to no avail and that has been covered by the warranty. Now Subaru wants to take apart the car to trace wires to try to find out why the light still won't go out. The warranty company is refusing to take responsibility for the payment for the work and I cannot and will not pay out of my pocket. Subaru wants me to take my car back and drive it. I do not want to die from a faulty airbag. There is something grossly wrong with the vehicle, the service department and especially the warranty company. Please help me get my vehicle fixed without having to be further raped financially. Subaru is trying to get me to purchase yet another vehicle and I was told by the service lane manager that I should never have been sold that car. It is dangerous. My files you are requesting are in my car which is at the dealership.

Takata recall.

Takata recall-wanted to purchase a 2016 Subaru Outback 3. 6l, and after multiple inquiries, finally was told that takata airbags still being used in the passenger front seat whereas other manufacturers' airbags are now being used in drivers and side curtain parts of the auto. So passenger front seats are still vulnerable. We would like to know if this mix of airbag manufacturers is known to all consumers so they know the risk they are purchasing. We declined to buy the Subaru Outback this year until we find a manufacturer who uses no takata airbags.

Takata recall (unknown whether my specific vehicle airbags are subject to recall) purchased as new car.
