| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My subaru outback unlimited 2001 needs a transmission replaced after only 74,000. all the repairs and service were performed at the dealership including the 60,00 mile major tune-up. all the service was done timely and as recommended. the dealer first said the noise was the alternator and replaced the alternator, but the noise continued. i took the car to another subaru dealer who said the problem was the transmission and suspected it was not serviced appropriately. i returned the car to the original dealer at their request. they then removed the replaced alternator and returned my original alternator, but refused any responsibility for my transmission failure. *jb |
