I was denied the fuel line recall due to i live in ohio and ohio is not on the list of "cold states." i am forced to breath gasoline fumes and my engine smokes burning off those gasoline fumes. just waiting for the car to blow up. thank you, subaru *tr
Tl* the contact owns a 2002 subaru impreza. when the contact started the vehicle, there was a burning oil odor. when the accelerator pedal was depressed, the rear of the vehicle began to emit a loud vibrating noise. the contact took the vehicle to a certified mechanic who diagnosed that the exhaust from the convector rear muffler, gasket bolt, and dry belt needed to be replaced. in addition, the front subframe was rotted and the head gaskets were fractured, which caused an oil leak. all the parts needed to be replaced. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failures. the approximate failure mileage was 75,000.
Fuel lines above the engine on both sides leak fuel while the engine is running. the leak occurs when the gas pedal is depressed if the temp is lower than 32 degrees. at the point where the rubber fuel line meets the metal fuel lines you can see gas spray across the engine block and will pool up. tightening the clamps does not help. this has happened every winter since 2007.
