| When coming to a rolling stop and then stepping on the accelerator as our 2011 outback was turning, the new vehicle, with 9 miles on the odometer, experienced a brief hesitation followed by a hard transmission clunk and the vehicle lurched forward a few feet before driving normally. this occurred several times during rolling stops both when going forward and when turning a corner. we feel this is extremely unsafe and could lead to loss of control of the vehicle. we returned the vehicle to the dealership | |||
