| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Have been experiencing continued brake problems with my 2001 subaru outback ltd. this causes shuddering and pull to both left & right upon application of brakes. dealer has turned rotors etc. ( 1st @ 18000 miles) but problem still exists (current milage 28500) i have been hearing of other indiv. with the same problems in this model year...rumor : rotors are too thin /undersized? for car heat build up etc. i feel this to be a safety issue as well . car is hard to stop in a straight line...i am also concerned as to subaru backing up their warranty on this problem, as i've been hearing some "horror stories" . can you explore the safety/warranty issues on this problem? |
