Tl* the contact owns a 2015 subaru impreza. the contact stated that the vehicle failed to start while depressing the brake pedal and pushing the start button. the brake pedal traveled to the floorboard numerous times before the vehicle was able to start. also, while driving, the check engine and other unknown warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was taken to bill kolb jr. subaru (located at 252 ny-303, orangeburg, ny 10962, (845) 359-7777) where it was diagnosed that the battery needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the contact replaced the battery, but the failure recurred. the vehicle was not taken back to the dealer and was not repaired. on another occasion, while the vehicle was parked, it rolled backwards independently. the manufacturer was not notified of the failures. the approximate failure mileage was 71,000.
Car will have a slow or non responsive start from a stop.. there will be a couple second lag from the time i press on the accelerator.
Vehicle stationary, engine at idle, awaiting left hand turn. turn steering wheel left, attempt to accererate, engine temporarily stalls. this vehicle has been recalled for other defective relays. is this a defective fuel pump relay?
Soon after delivery, there was a noticeable lag ( 2-20 seconds) between the time the accelerator was depressed and when the vehicle accelerated. at times this lead to dangerous situations. dealer said there was no problem. the accelerator module was replaced ( not at dealer) and there were no problems for a time, now the same lag has begun to occur at random times, especially after slowing to less than 20 miles per hour. note:-- this is a problem for one of two drivers of the car. apparently the position of the driver's foot on the accelerator makes the difference. never has this driver had a similar problem in more than 50 years of driving all types of vehicles ( this is an ongoing problem, not a single or isolated event.)
