REAR RIGHT WHEEL HIT WASHBOARD PAYMENT WITH GRAVEL. THIS PRODUCED AN AXLE-HOP LIKE MOTION TO THE OUTSIDE, RIGHT. THE FRONT AND LEFT WHEELS RECEIVED NO POWER UNTIL THE HOP ENDED, APPROX 5-6 SECONDS. DRIVER FELT THAT IF AN UNKNOWING PERSON JERKED THE STEERING TO LEFT A ROLLOVER MAY WELL HAVE OCCURRED. 2) BEFORE THOUGHTLESSLY DISMISSING THIS AS EXCESSIVE SPEED, REMEMBER THE LONG DELAY BEFORE THE OTHER WHEELS REACTED. SUBARU SAID THE REACTION WAS A MILLE A ISECON BUT, IN TRUTH, IT WAS SO LONG THAT IT BECAME DANGEROUS AND COULD PRODUCE A WRECK. *AK **THE ABOVE REMARKS PERTAIN TO THE ESC SYSTEM. 3) NO CORRECTIVE REPAIR.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
TL*- THE CONTACT HAS A 2006 SUBARU B9 TRIBECA WITH AN ODOMETER READING OF 7300 MILES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN EVENING COMES AND THE DAY TIME RUNNING LIGHTS ARE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IS ILLUMINATED. WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED THE CONTACT FORGETS TO PUT IN THE HEAD LIGHTS WHICH CAUSES OTHER DRIVERS NOT TO SEE THE VEHICLE PROPERLY. THE CONTACT EXPLAINED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED HE HAD ALMOST GOTTEN HIT IN THE REAR BECAUSE THE TAIL LIGHTS WERE NOT ON BECAUSE THE CONTACT WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT ALL LIGHTS WERE ON BECAUSE OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL DISPLAY.
