@lolitstinks1 The stationary barrier provides the same results with less chance of test failure. If you want to test a 40mph vs 40mph head on collision. It's the same as crashing the car into a wall at 80mph. They build the "wall" to give the same resistance as a car would. Much cheaper, and makes for a much easier/cheaper study.
@CrashJSTest Are you watching a different video? lol, the side of the car wasn't touched. Maybe you are thinking of the fender that was damaged in the frontal impact?
This car fails this test. The side airbags should not have deployed in this type of crash. They should be unfired, so that in the case of a side impact that occurs after the initial frontal impact, they will still protect the occupants.
@TheJoePepper deploy to protect your head, whats so bad about that, maybe install 2 side airbags? and the deflation is a bad idea, got to think of possibly more hits to the car
@SLIvista Of course they deploy to protect your head, but they should not deploy unless there is a side impact. During a frontal impact, which this was, front airbags deploy to protect your head. During a side impact, which this wasn't, side airbags would deploy. This isn't a hard concept to grasp.
@marktech101 yes. there is a rod in the trunk that you place in a hole under the passenger side toward the rear tire. Inserting and rotating the rod releases the electronic brake and will allow you to release the CVT automatic transmission so that the vehicle can be moved.
@marktech101 isnt it weird that an emergency brake system is electrical? now once these things start failing they are going to have to start making emergency emergency brakes.
Wow! I like my Suburu Outback 2011 all the more better than before!

so why don't they test it against a moving object as opposed to to a stationary barrier?

they should make a law so every car has to have a 5 star safety rating

@RavetodaGrave I agree, if they did that, think of all the people that could of survived a car crash.

I thought they removed one star? So.. 4 stars?

64 km/h is too less speed and they didn't show the side impact protection. Also the knee airbag is not available if you see in anothers countrys...

@marktech101 yes actually. you have to do it manually with a special tool that comes with the outback, it's in the spare tire area.
