SUBARU LEGACY 2009 car safety problem was reported on Aug 15, 2009.SUBARU LEGACY 2009, manufactured by SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC. had a problem with STRUCTURE . opened driver side door one night and as i was pulling door open i was talking to someone who was outside of the car and hit my neck on the window since it has no frame. it was dark, couldn't see the clear glass and never gave it a thought. the window caught my neck at an angle exactly where i had surgery in '07. it hurt and scared me a lot and i thought it did something to my throat. thank goodness it didn't. if it happened just after my surgery, it could have ripped my neck open. i have never had a car with no window frames before. if i had any idea that something like this could happen, i would not have purchased it. i have gone to two subaru dealerships with my concerns and have tried to trade it, but of course, the trade in value makes it impossible. so for the moment i'm stuck with it, but it makes me nervous. i don't know if this has ever happened to anyone else, but i sure hope it doesnt happen to me again. thank you. *tr.Mileage was 14000 miles.

Subaru Legacy 2009 Air Bags Review #10399418

SUBARU LEGACY 2009 car safety problem was reported on Mar 20, 2011.SUBARU LEGACY 2009, manufactured by SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC. had a problem with AIR BAGS . i drive a 2009 subaru legacy sedan. the air bag light began to turn on since about 52,000 miles. when i shut off the car, the airbag light goes away but then periodically comes on every now and then. subaru is unable to answer as to why this is happening as a generic code is produced. i searched online forums regarding this issue and believe that there is a trend with the air bag system in the 2005-2009 subaru legacy's. multiple people have complained about this problem and says it has something to do with the air bag within the seat that connections could possibly come loose or the air bag module has gone bad. most report this happening around 45,000-60,000 miles. some report with this, sometimes the passenger air bag automatically turns off despite a passenger occupying the seat. a vehicle's safety system should not be compromised this early or at all. i strongly believe that this should be investigated before a casualty or injury results and a recall is issued regarding the air bag system. if subaru cannot answer to why their air bag light comes on, this raises some concern and needs to be looked into. only forums have been helpful and some say the seat needs to be replaced, which is estimated at $1900-$2100 because the air bags are built/sewn in the seat. this should not be the customer's responsibility if its the seats or safety system of the vehicle. this is the manufacturer's responsibility to keep its consumers safe and thoroughly resolve the matter before it regrets it did not do so in result of someone being injured or a casualty results. *tr.Mileage was 52000 miles.

Subaru Legacy 2009 Reports


I test drove a 2011 Subaru Outback yesterday at night in a very dark area with the headlights on. I could only see out of the bottom third of the windshield. The top two thirds of the windshield looked as if a black curtain had dropped down over i

I notice if I quickly accelerate/go into overdrive - front of car will hum. Do I need to have something checked out?
Thank you!

2004 forester xt, strong gas smell in the cold weather when the heat is on. They won't fix it because they "can't find it" at my dealership. Do I need a new fuel line or is there an easier fix?

Thank you for these, can find a decent review now.

My 1998 subaru forester stutters/hiccups/bucks (whatever you call it) when going uphill, and when accelerating on a straight path, can it be the transmission?

I HAVE A SUBARU FORESTER 2000 TAIL LIGHT/PLATE LIGHT/'FRONT SIGNAL LIGHT STAYS ON.ONCE FUSE IS REMOVED LIGHT GOES OUT.WHAT COULD THE PROBLEM BE?
