problem #1

Jul 232001

Forester 4WD

  • miles
The failure probably occurred thousands of miles earlier since I heard a noise that I though was tire noise but no longer hear since the wheel bearing was replaced. The noise kept getting worse so I finally realized that it must be something else. The dealer took my car immediately and fixed the problem the same day. I would not be reporting this except that on the internet this seems to be a frequent problem that often reoccurs including multiple times on the same car. This is also a problem that does not normally happen on low-mileage cars.
