BRAND NEW 2010 SUBARU OUTBACK HAS A SHIMMY PROBLEM . THE STEERING WHEEL SHIMMIES AND WHEN MAKING A WIDE TURN, OFTEN THE STEERING FEELS LIKE YOU HIT AN ICE PATCH, EVEN THO THE ROAD IS DRY. SUBARU IS AND WAS AWARE OF THESE PROBLEMS BEFORE PRODUCTION, AND SOLD THEM ANYWAY. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THIS CAR IS A SUBARU OUTBACK 2.5I MANUAL 6SPD TRANSMISSION. WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT WITH CAR IDLING, THE RPM'S GET VERY LOW AND CAR DIES. STARTS BACK UP RIGHT AWAY, BUT THEN AFTER IDLING FOR 15-20 SECONDS, THE CAR WILL DIE AGAIN. CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING AS I HAVE READ REPORTS OF MANY OTHER MODELS OF THE SAME CAR DOING THE SAME THING WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND THEY WILL CHARGE A TON OF MONEY TO COME BACK AND TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. IT IS A CLEAR SAFETY ISSUE IF THE CAR CANNOT HOLD AN IDLE AND/OR DIES WHILE DRIVING. *TR
