| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Faulty desing of the fuel lines on a 2002 subaru wrx are causing a fuel leak (enough to puddle on the manifold). dealer (as well as subaru of america) will not cover the problem under warranty, even though there is a nationwide service bulletin about the issue. my car has several non-related modifications, so my warranty will not cover the issue. this is a very serious health/safety issue, and for subaru to not be forced to recall or at least offer free repairs of it is completely unsatisfactory. this poses a dager to myself, my family, and possibly any one who walks by my car in a praking lot with a cigarette. subaru should be taking the responsibility for faulty design, and if for no other reason than respect for their customers her in america, offer to fix this issue no matter the mileage on the car, or the modifications that may be done to it.*ak |
