Ascent Premium 2.4L V4

  • CVT transmission
  • 87,375 miles

Took it to the dealership for state and emissions inspection. The first day the dealership inspected fixed some minor issues and was ready to sticker the Subaru but ran out of time. The SUV sat in the service bay until the next morning and they cold started the Ascent and noticed it sounded louder that normal and then visuallly inspected it and found the cracks in the manifold. No help from Subaru for any of the repair cost even after I searched the internet and found this is an issue with the 2019-2022 Subaru Ascents. The dealership said there was not recall for this issue.
