problem #1

Outback 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100 miles
Interior lights typically do not go off when shutting doors or lift gate. To get lights to turn off, doors need to be slammed so hard I'm afraid the glass will shatter. Subaru dealer has refused to repair under 3/36 warranty. They said to just turn lights off with the interior switches so that they do not turn on when doors are opened. This has been a problem since the car was new.
