Outback 4-cyl

  • 213,500 miles
Noticed a leak of fluid from passenger side by the rear wheel. Determined it was gasoline. Upon inspection found fuel leaking from the filler tube to the gas tank. Got the car to a Subaru repair shop and was told this is a common problem. There is no undercoating applied to the tube.
