Recently reported ELECTRICAL SYSTEM problems on 2017 Subaru WRX

Driving and on a turn between 35-40 mph my wrx freaked out. the dash light up like a christmas tree, the lane tracking along with the adaptive cruise control indicators flashed, and the dash said eyesight unavailable. it felt like i couldn't control the car and almost felt as if it accelerated on its own. i hit the breaks and the lost control of the vehicle and ended up in a ditch. the front of the car ran through brush and ended in front of a tree. the airbags deployed on the side but were delayed on the passenger side until the car stopped. my fiance was in the passenger seat. front airbags did not go off even though it was a front collision. the car was on a country road with other traffic in front of it.

Subwoofer and amp overheated during normal use causing wires to burn and melt causing a significant fire safety issue. this is seemingly similar to the issues that lead to a 2017 recall of almost 10,000 2015 model year wrxs
