SHORTLY AFTER GETTING VALVE SPRING REPLACEMENT WORK DONE AT HUNTER SUBARU IN HENDERSONVILLE NC THE AC CONDESNSER SEIZED UP. SHOP IS NOT STANDING BEHIND WORK DONE DURING RECALL INCLUDING A AC REFRIGERANT REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT AND CLEANING OF HOSES AND LINES. AC CONDENSERS DONT JUST SEIZE UP LESS THAN 3K MILES AFTER BEING SERVICED, THEY ARE KILLED BY LACK OF LUBRICATION OR IMPROPER PRESSURES. SUBARU OF AMERICA WILL NOT RESPOND EITHER. POOR JOB BY BOTH. DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE $1200 TO FIX THEIR MISTAKE. CRIMINALS. I WOULD NOT HAVE DONE MY WARRANTY WORK AT HUNTER IF I KNEW THEY WERE GOING TO MESS AROUND WITH OTHER SYSTEMS IN THE VEHICLE. AC IS CRITICAL TO KEEP VISION CLEAR DURING DRIVING. CAR STUTTERED AND NEARLY STALLED WHEN AC UNIT "SEIZED" AND THE CAR SMELLED LIKE BURNING PLASTIC. SCARY

SUBARU RECALL FROM OCTOBER 2018. THE CAR IS STARTING TO STALL WHILE DRIVING. SUBARU IS NOW TELLING ME THAT I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL LATE MAY TO HAVE MY CAR REPAIRED. THIS IS UNSAFE AND IS MY ONLY VEHICLE FOR WORK. DURING DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY BETWEEN 30 AND 60MPH OR ON CITY STREETS BETWEEN 20-30PMH, THE CAR JUST SLOWS WAY DOWN BY ITSELF AND THE HILL START/ASSIST WARNING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND PERIODICALLY THE VEHICLE DYNAMICS CONTROL LIGHT ALSO COMES ON. THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN ONGOING AND PERIODIC BUT MORE AND MORE FREQUENT SINCE DECEMBER 2018.

I'M HAVING THE ISSUE OF MY IGNITION NOT RELEASING MY KEYS I HAVE TO SPEN 5 TO 30 MINUTES TO FINALLY GET MY KEYS OUT I HAVE TO REVERSE AND PARK AND TURN THE STEERING WHEELS BACK IN FORTH AND PUSH MY BRAKES REALLY HARD AND SUBARU WANTS TO CHARGE ME 120 TO DIGINOSE IT WHEN TWO OUT FOUR SAID IT'S MY GEAR CONTROL SHIFTER AND OF JUST OREDINGME THE PART AND FIX IT

IGNITION MECHANISM WILL NOT FULLY ROTATE COMPLETELY TO ALLOW KEY TO BE REMOVED FROM IGNITION HOUSING. CAR TURNS OFF BUT KEY WILL NOT RELEASE. UNKNOWN WHAT EVENTUALLY RELEASES THE MECHANISM FOR THE KEY TO TURN AND COME OUT BUT USUALLY TAKES SOME MINUTES, DOORS OR ELECTRIC LOCKS OPEN/CLOSE, STARTING THE CAR AGAIN AND DRIVING MORE... DON'T KNOW. ALL HAS WORKED AND NOT WORKED.

DRIVING AT LOW SPEED AND HIT A SMALL BUMP IN VERY COLD WEATHER (5F). WINDSHIELD MADE A POPPING SOUND . THE CAR WAS PARKED A WEEK LATER WHEN THE WINDSHIELD DEVELOPED A SPONTANEOUS CRACK ALONG THE DRIVERS SIDE FRAME. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO IMPACT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY AND MANUFACTURING ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. OTHER FOLKS ARE REPORTING A SIMILAR ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES.
