| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Left wheel bearing went out may 2004. paid approx. $1300 to repair it at a subaru dealership. right wheel bearing went out sept 2005. paid approx $450 to replace it at a subaru certified repair shop. now may 2006, left wheel bearing has gone out again, less than 2 years after it was replaced. the subaru dealer now wants $500-800 to replace it again as they say repairs are only under warranty for 12 mos. i have spent close to $2,000 on repairs for something that is defective and obviously cannot be fixed. it does not make sense to spend another $800 to repair it again when it will only happen again and again. my vehicle has 94k on it. i drive less than 10k per year. this should not be happening. subaru won't help me. dealer won't help me. *nm |
