Headlamps burn out and cause shorting on other electrical components like blower fan, windows and etc. I change headlamps every 1-2 months sometimes sooner, and now i'm forced to change the electrical components that are effected by this shorting issue!!!!!! I'm told that subaru had an defect with this issue from other countries!!!

Problem 1. While driving on the interstate highway car lost power, stalled and shut off. The gas guage was on a 1/4 of tan of gasoline, miles guage read 100 miles. I was able to coast to the side of the road. Thanks god, i near the next exit. I was able to restart my car after about ten minute and went to the nearest gas station. This have happen to me twice on the interstate highway so i try not let the gas guage fall below 1/4 tank because the sensor are not register correct. I have take my car to subaru dealer in jackson, ms 3 times they can find the problem. I travel the interstate highway daily to work, usually drive in the outer left or right lane so if my car cut off i will be able to coast off to the side of the road not at ran over. I took video picture of the guage reading to show to the subaru dealer on my cell phone. Problem 2. Temperature gauge read the car is running hot while driving and sitting at stop light. The gauge randomly moves up and down while driving. I had take my car to subaru of jackson twice about this problem. They keep may car for about a week could not get it to replicate the problem. I have replace my radiator and thermostat but that did not correct the issues. Since subaru can not find what is wrong with my vehicle i don't know what else to do. Problem 3: low tire pressure sensor light randomly flash on and off while driving then stays on. I have had the tire pressure check several times. Pressure is fine on all tires. .

Upon entering highway and accelerating to achieve the prescribed 65mph, the car continued accelerating, uncommanded, even when i applied the brakes, and continued to accelerate above 85mph for miles, (i was pumping brakes and frantically trying to figure out what to do and what was going on). I was able to find an exit ramp and had the thought i could put the car in neutral and thereby successfully slow the car to a stop. The engine continued to rev in neutral, and after the car stopped and i put it in park, the car continued to rev and began to shudder until i turned off the engine power.

I am in the military currently stationed overseas, in italy, and we noticed that the car i bought in 2015 has been releasing gas fumes on cold morning, that will last no more than 3 minutes, noticeably when the engine is warmed up. We never noticed this happening on warm season. Strong gas smell comes in through the ac vents when the circulation is open and/or in defogger mode. No gas smell in engine bay but rather the gas smell is strong on the exhaust pipes.

There is a large shudder at slow acceleration. The problem was slight to begin with however, the problem continues to get worse. Dealer has confirmed that the torque converter is no good, however they will not replace for free since the vehicle is out of warranty. Through my investigation, i found that subaru did a design change in early 2009 to correct this problem. Unfortunately, subaru has not issued a recall for all defective torque converters it has installed. *tr

Windshield cracking for no reason. Approx 4 clean, through and through, cracks now. All roughly 8' long. No chips and/or rock dings. Woke up two mornings ago, car garaged, and there was a new crack after it sat idle in a garage all night. *tr

When accelerating moderately, the drivetrain/transmission shudders. The vehicle hesitates for a brief period of time and then begins to accelerate. This usually occurs between 20-40 mph, especially when moving in stop and go traffic. Dealer has not been able to duplicate the condition and no "error codes" are showing in the computer. My wife does not feel confident driving the vehicle any longer as it makes it dangerous to pull into oncoming traffic. Apparently we are not the only people to experience this, but subaru does not appear to be willing to rectify this condition. Owners of 2008 and 2009 tribeca's frequently complain about this issue, but "nothing is wrong" when the vehicles are looked at by subaru technicians. I wonder is subaru is having their dealers cover up this issue. *tr
