BTW - do you hear of things like this with Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, Kia, Daewoo, Volkswagen, or any other comparative brands? Because I don't. In fact anything I have ever heard have been just the opposite. I have been a Subaru fool forever, and I always will be - I just doubt I will ever buy another new one, and I never will get a warrantee on one again.
Believe me, I understand these things and that there are many jerks who try to abuse the warranty. I am just not one of them, and I don't want to be treated like it anymore (at first was fine, since I understand). My car is bone stock (well now it has Eibachs) and very well taken care of. No gutted anything, no downpipe, nada.
If I were this fellow with his experience, I would be studying the magnussen-whatever-it-is ruling very closely.

Believe me, I love my car - I just want it to run right and not get talked in circles at the dealer when I bring it in with legitimate concerns.

uhhh im not saying just deal with it, im saying dont let situations like this make you not want to buy a subaru. A lot of people have problems with dealers and getting stuff covered and all that crap. Go look on other forums long enough and you'll see the same stuff. Don't think these other brands have perfect customer service and these problems only happen with subaru.
