Sudden unintended acceleration: while driving up the inclining driveway to my dr. Office for my covid vaccine, all of a sudden, my car accelerated as if someone stomped on my gas pedal! had I not turned right into the parking lot, I would have crashed, head-on into a stone retaining wall. I pushed on the brakes to slow down and stop as I was steering my car into a parking space. This was a terrifying experience for which I had zero control. My car continued to propel forward and surge with such power that it plowed into a “safely parking boulder” which rolled down the hill. This caused my car to go airborne off a steep embankment, sideswiped a tree (airborne), landed on another part of the driveway and continued to propel forward and part way back up the hill! all this occurred while my foot was on the brake pedal! it is a miracle that I am alive and that I didn’t injure or kill someone in the process. I was wearing my seatbelt and my dog were in the car. They appear to me ok. However, neither of the airbags deployed! I am again grateful to be alive. My car was totaled, but I would not feel safe even if it were repaired. I survived this time, but maybe not the next time. I definitely want this documented for safety purposes! thank you!.

The latch on the front hood is broken it will not close and when I drive on the interstate going to work I feel like the hood is going to fly open. Also the gas door latch is broken as well it will not open when you pull the gas door latch. I was told by credit karma that the driver and passenger air bag are both defective in motion on city and highway street.

I have received numerous notices to have my front passenger airbag replaced. On two occasions I have made appointments with the local corpus christi Subaru dealer to have this remedied. On both occasions they tell me that the parts are unavailable. The latest notice dated 8/17 tells me that. "parts are available", however the dealer tells me they are not. I keep getting the runaround and in the meantime I cannot have a passenger sit in my front seat and I don't feel save driving it.

To whom it may concern, I can't emphasize right now how disappointed I am in Subaru's customer service in both the USA and in the republic of panama. I currently reside in the republic of panama. I have yet to contact corporate in japan, and I shouldn't have to. Unfortunately, both parties on the sides of Subaru in panama (Subaru del canal s. A. ) and Subaru in the USA (1-800-782-2783) have been more worried about costs than promoting Subaru's standard of safety which is why I invested in the Subaru in the first place, being an expectant father at the time. Around July of 2010 my wife and I bought a second hand 2006 b9 Tribeca from a dealer in phoenix, az. We enjoyed the vehicle so much, that we decided to bring it with us on our move back to panama. I guess this is where Subaru's commitment to safety draws the line. Everyone I have so far spoken to has basically told me well since you didn't buy the car here we can't help you, or, since you are no longer here, we can't pay for it. I am sitting here trying to figure out how your design flaws, are my fault just because I moved the car from one Subaru market, to another. The recalls in question are: wqe41, wqy60, and tka16. My wife and 2 children were in the car about to leave my residence when it caught on fire. The driver's side front and rear puddle lights both failed. The front one was smoking heavily and the rear one was on fire. My wife immediately grabbed the hose and started spraying the rear one while I grabbed a 10mm wrench and disconnected the lead to the car battery. Unfortunately, the trim on the underside has plastic melted with a big gaping hole and there are burn marks on the paint and plastic on both puddle lights.

Takata recall my car was exported to russia. Subaru motor russia does not recognise this recall for Tribeca model (impreza is heared to be recalled). Their reply is that there is no airbag recall for my VIN 4s4wx85c164407572.

Takata airbag issue -- Subaru has had years to deal with the problem but now tells me that we can't use the front passenger seat until they fix the airbag and that they do not have the parts to fix it with. This is ridiculous considering how much time they have had to plan repairs and how much danger they put us in. Nor have they offered to compensate us for lack of use and convenience of not having use of part of the vehicle.

Takata recall I called the dealer and they put on a list and they said they didn't have any airbags in stock and didn't know when they would get them in they put me on a waiting list and said not to let a front passenger ride and said it would probably be around December.

Takata recall. When can I expect parts. This recall is impacting my ability to use my passenger seat. It is now almost 5 months since we were notified of this issue.

"takata recall" I purchased this car because of the options. One being the passenger seat can be adjusted for my handicap passenger. Since July 2016 I have not been using this feature due to the possibility of it being hazardous if it was to inflate. But my handicap passenger finds it difficult to access the car's backseat. . May can be done to have this be put on a priority list. This car also needed to be repair for the other recall involving the hood lock and catch. Luckily the accident was not fatal. But I was without a car for 2 months. So, this is my complaint .
