Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have been experiencing a problem while accelerating from a stop or from coasting, such as when a red light has just turned green. i begin to depress the accelerator and the engine just about dies. this has nearly caused me to get "t-boned" at intersections numerous times. i have brought it to the attention of two different subaru dealers and they say that nothing is wrong with it. i have heard that other subaru owners are having this problem but subaru will not admit that this is a safety issue. *jb
