Driver's airbag light is constantly on the dashboard. this will cause airbags to not deploy during a collision. a brief internet search reveals the same issue is ongoing for many 2007 subaru outback models. it is believed to be due to faulty soldering of the overhead chip for the airbags. this should be considered as an extremely serious safety incident. *tr

I was on cruise control driving the speed limit and a full sized pregnant deer jumped right in front of me. i hit the deer full speed. it did over $8000. in damage to the car, but the air bag didn't deploy. it was like an explosion, and the front of the car was mashed up and head lights knocked out, etc. the deer was cut in 1/2 and flew around the car, but it did not hit the windshield. the air bags did not go off, i repeat, and i'm kind of concerned that it wouldn't work in a collision. *tr

2007 subaru outback 2.5i, 4 snow tires, 5mt. this has happened several times. when driving the vehicle straight (no turns) on slightly icy or blowing snow roads, the rear end begins to wobble approxiamtley 3inches side to side. i am giving the car little to no throttle and it will still sway. the swaying becomes much worse with more weight in the car (1 foot side to side). the swaying is so bad that i often have to drive 15-20mph slower than general traffic. i have had new tires put on (snow tires) and had the car aligned. it still occurs. *tr
