| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: During the cold period last week, my 2002 subaru impreza wrx had a very strong smell of raw gas. subaru has issued a tsb # 09-36-03 dated 4/01/03 acknowledging the problem and has a repair kit specifically designed to fix the problem. this problem should result in a recall by subaru and be repaired at subaru's expense. it is a potential explosive/fire event and is a fault in the original design. the dealers will not fix this problem without charging the customers. the repair kit is about $60 but labor is $700-800. its a safety issue and i'm afraid to drive it like it is. *jb |
