problem #2

Mar 202007

Impreza 4WD 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 115,000 miles
At 15,000km past warranty, I submitted my car for service and was told the engine was leaking fluids, required new head gaskets, new transmission mounts and sway bar bushings. Barrie Subaru did not show much interest in the amount of work required on a vehicle that had been on the road for less than 3 years.

problem #1

Oct 182003

Impreza 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 17,001 miles
Karen quinn of Subaru of America assured me that I can drive my 2003 Subaru Impreza with "check engine" light on for a period of two weeks without any concern. As a result, the vehicle stalled the "check engine" light was blinking and I was in danger. At a later time she falsified the records and had no recollection of such conversation.
