problem #1

Jun 172012

Forester LX V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 31,069 miles

The car does start then after many trials for no reasons it starts. The car will start without any problem for 1-2 weeks then for some reason it is impossible to start. No engine turning then suddenly it works. It is worse on hot days. I went to see the dealer and they did not fix the problem although it did cost me $216 for the verification they made on the car. The electrical system is fine.

Update from Jul 12, 2012: The problem was related with an anticar starter put in by the insurance company because the company did not consider the anti car starter put in by Subaru was sufficiently safe. The «second» anticar starter was removed and I have no problem starting the car for more than one month. Therefore the problem was not related with Subaru anti car starter.
