| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 2001 subaru outback. after hearing a whining noise in the front of the car, i took my car into my mechanic. he informed me that i probably needed to have the front differential replaced and referred me to the dealership. the dealership told me i needed the entire transmission replaced. because the milage on my car was at 62,000 miles, the dealership would not honor my warranty because it only extended to 60k. astounded that any car with only 62k miles on it would need its entire transmission replaced, i appealed to subaru customer services and asked them to own up to the defect. they declined my request. |
