ALMOST BEEN REAR ENDED ON THE FREE WAY DUE TO THIS HAPPENING DEALERSHIP DOES NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSES THIS DUE TO IT NOT ALWAYS HAPPENING AND THE LIGHTS GO OFF AFTER SHUTTING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN MULTIPLE PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH NO RESOLUTION. I AM A HUGE SUBARU FAN BUT WILL LOOK ELSE WHERE IF SUBARU DOESN'T START FIXING THEIR MISTAKES,

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 SUBARU LEGACY. WHILE DRIVING 40 TO 55 MPH, THE CONTACT'S WINDSHIELD CRACKED. THE CONTACT EXITED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE CRACK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RUGES SUBARU (6444 MONTGOMERY ST, RHINEBECK, NY 12572, (845) 397-1204) WHERE A NEW WINDSHIELD WAS INSTALLED, BUT THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED AGAIN THE SAME DAY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

DRIVING ON INTERSTATE AT 70MPH & CAR ACTED AS IF IT WENT INTO NEUTRAL. RPM'S WERE MAINTAINED AT APX 4000. LOW FUEL LIGHT HAD JUST GONE MOMENTS BEFORE INDICATING 80 MILES LEFT IN TANK. CAR ACTED LIKE IT HAD NO GAS HOWEVER RPM WAS WORKING AS I PULLED ON TO SHOULDER OF HIGHWAY, LUCKILY.ONCE PULLED OVER & BRAKING ENGINE STOPPED. TRIED RESTARTING & ENGINE ACTED LIKE IT HAD NO GAS. WAS IN THE PROCESS OF WAITING FOR AAA WHEN I TRIED RESTARTING IT. IT STARTED AFTER ABOUT A HALF HOUR FROM INCIDENT, ALTHOUGH I DID NOT TRY TO START IT AFTER THE 1ST 5 MINUTES OR SO. WHEN IT RESTARTED LOW FUEL GAUGE WAS STILL ON 70 MILES TO EMPTY & I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO GAS STATION & REFUELED TO APPROXIMATELY 15 GALLONS, 3 LESS THAN 18 GALLON TANK SO THERE WAS APPROX 3 GALLONS IN TANK WHEN THIS OCCURRED. CAR IS WORKING FINE NOW BUT WILL BE TAKING TO NC SUBARU TO SEE IF ANY CODES WERE SET, NOTHING WAS ALERTED ON CAR WARNING LIGHTS OTHER THAN LOW FUEL WARNING LIGHT. I LIVE IN NJ & I AM CONCERNED THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN DRIVING BACK & I MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO PULL OVER ON MORE CONGESTED HIGHWAYS. SEARCHED GOOGLE & THERE ARE SIMILAR INCIDENTS SUCH AS SUBARU FORRESTOR 2014 WITH SAME ENGINE & ISSUE WHERE DEALER COULD NOT FIND ISSUE. ALSO SUBARU ISSUED RECALL FOR 2017 IMPREZZA (SEE 33K CARS RECALLED) WITH STALLING ISSUES. CAR HAS 93K MILES & OTHER THAN REPLACING 2 BATTERIES, ONE A FEW WEEKS BACK , IT HAS NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH ANYTHING ELSE. I WAS APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES FROM GETTING OFF INTERSTATES WHEN THIS OCCURRED (EG 553 OF 550 MILES BEFORE 30 OR SO MILES REMAINING ON LOCAL ROADS). AFTER REFUELING IN NJ ONLY MADE TWO QUICK 5 MINUTE STOPS ALONG THE WAY BEFORE THIS OCCURRED.
