problem #1

Jul 122004

Outback 4-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 34,000 miles
Driving normal shifted the car and the clutch felt soft and the return to normal position was slow. I called the dealer repair and explained the situation. I was told that there was a service bulletin on this type of incident, however there was no recall. I took to dealer for repair. It cost me $216 to repair something that the manufacturer knew was defective and it wasn't covered by my extended warranty.
