First time car stalled when brakes were applied. Car (subaru legacy 2012) had 140k miles on it. Went to a subaru dealer and they replaced the torque converter. There is a service bulletin out there for this model which caps the mileage for free repair at 100k miles. After 30 miles with a new torque converter, car started shuddering at 45mph. Multiple sensor lights came on with steering becoming difficult. Turned into a small street where the car stalled at low speeds. Took a couple of tries to start the car and sent it back to the dealership for repairs.

Keep having to replace low beam light bulb every few weeks. Unsafe for my teenage driver to not have the correct lighting to see the road.

Car is sometimes experiencing sudden unintended acceleration at slow speeds. Even with driver's foot firmly pushing down on the brake, car will not stop until engine is turned off. There have been 2 recent, similar circumstances: #1: car turned right to a stop sign on a semi-rural road, engine began to "rev" and car jerked forward, barely missing a car ahead. Engine continued to operate at high speed until the car was turned off. After turning back on, car operated normally. #2: driver turned right from a city street into a parking lot and continued to drive at slow speed to turn right into a parking space. Engine began to "rev", car jerked forward, driver braked hard, put car in park but car kept moving. Car jumped onto the parking barrier at the front of the space, driver turned the car off. Car appeared to operate normally after.

Got my subaru at a certified dealer and they did all the airbag recalls good 😁 and thank you but i been driving it to and from work no big deal 35 mile round trip but noticed it was hard starting like no fuel or spark so when it was due for inspection i told them to change the plugs at 59k miles they did and drove it for a month or two and notice a winding noise and shimmy and when stoped at a red light it almost stalled out light when very dim and came back on and i've notice over a week it's been loosing power like the tahoe i had that the torque converter was going so i called the nearest dealer and asked about the transmission and they looked at it and said it passed all of subaru testing and just drive it and asked what about the shimmy when driving and shifting gears they said engine lope and just drive it till it shows a light or fails it's under warranty till 100k miles but i don't want to drive it if i'm in traffic and it stalls and cause a reck or engine blows up due to engine lope and asked about the engine lope what is causing it they can't tell me it now has 61k miles on it and a yard ornament because i don't want to cause an accident on the road

Engine stalls after abrupt stop. For example, i was on post road in westport connecticut and slowed down from 25mph+ very quickly with a hard brake. The engine immediately stalled and all lights on the dashboard were activated. Restarting the car allowed me to proceed. This issue also occurred on a highway (the meritt parkway) several weeks ago. This problem is consistently reproducible and has happened 10+ times. Subaru has acknowledged the issue (https://www.Forbes.Com/sites/jensen/2017/07/07/facing-complaints-subaru-offers-extended-warranties-on-1-5-million-vehicles/#6e78473e79dc) and "extended" my warranty up to 100k, but my car currently has 106k miles. I brought the car to hank may's in norwalk, but they were unable to find a cause for the issue. I have reached out to subaru concurrently with this report. They will be examining my car to determine what the issue is and whether it will be covered.
