Description of the problem	This used vehicle was purchased from a dealer as a "great buy", with 74589 miles on may 23, 2018. Less than one week later, bells and dings began sounding while driving, light indicators indicated that the srs system needed to be checked; that the passenger airbag was not on sometimes, other times it was.. Intermittent. Car in motion both on city streets and on highway. No recalls were reported at that time, and i never knew while driving whether either side seatbelts were engaged when i knew they were, nor whether airbags were viable. Dangerous for driver and for passenger. Independent dealer and service departments were perplexed, dealerships had no available parts..... Here it is, oct. 2, 2018, over 4 months later, and no parts available to dealers or authorized repair companies to comply with safety regulations. This vehicle is unsafe; subaru needs to provide parts at no expense to this customer to assure safety. And, they need to issue a recall or face potential lawsuits.... ## vin passed ## subaru forester 2016 ##
