An engine suddenly dying on you during deceleration is a serious safety issue. Braking is the first most important thing that is compromised. And one accident that would've been caused by this is one too many. Let us not wait for that accident to happen.
And therefore, there is NO WAY a company such as Toyota or Subaru will allow such a thing to be left to rott. This car is a very publicized vehicle between two large and fairly well known companies whose reputations stand very high.
This alone should give people confidence that such a problem with the car will be diagnosed and rectified ASAP.
I think some people think that a car like this gets developed and then released without vigorous testing. There are always supply issues with vehicles, hence why there are recalls (including those you don't ever hear about but get fixed when serviced!!), that aren't made aware until full scale production is underway. Pretty much every manufacturer has an issue like this, the only difference is, is that your not on that specific forum reading about it!!!

Take a chill pill people, the car is Fantastic and the faults will be recitified very soon. Toyoburu can not afford to let this car become a media nightmare.
