yeah...squeeling. I brought it in for an oil change. Told them the pump was squeeling and either going out or needing lube on the belts and described the turbo issues and asked them to look at it. They did...and found it was all bad and ordered new parts. SCS has done what I asked on all this. Figured I had like 3000 left on the warranty...better do it now...and was right.

it's SOA that's jerking me around.

 

If they deny warranty in the end buy a used stocker, and install the dang thing. Its like a 2 hour install, and requires very little skill. The PS pump if thats what it is, is easy. Once again buy a used one, and install it. Its hard to screw the stuff up. I think the whole thing could be no more than $500.

 

Sorry to hear the predicament THEY are in! I'm pulling for the folks to do the right thing for "us" smart customers. And +1 for Charlie being da man over there!

 

I just got 500 dollars out of them for starting my warranty early. just play hardball and dont back down. you can and will win

 

keeping receipts for oil wouldnt work. Even receipts from a jiffy lube wouldnt work unless they take down the VIN # (i dont know, i dont let street racers change my oil ive never been there)

i started keeping my oil receipts for when i sell my car, but thats dealing with people with hearts, not businesses with cold hearts and dont want to lose money.

 

dude im sorry.. SOA is bull****. i said the same exact thing as you did when my transmission went out on the 3rd day i owned it.. they said the 150 miles that were already on the clock had nothing to do with it that i had to of dropped my clutch to break it.. (hmm who drops their clutch in 2nd gear lol..)


best of luck man.. threaten legal action.. they will move on it better than just saying it bull****..

 

I've got a number and a call to make. I'll make that call. let them talk to sc subaru and try to do the right thing.

If that doesn't work I'll escalate. If that doesn't work Ive got a couple ideas.

 

good luck with everything

SCsubaru denied us a clutch replacement im my moms OBS

we live ~15 miles from there...long story short we showed up to SofSC with the ODO reading 36,027 or something and $1000 poorer

 

OH NOES !!!! RAY'S GONNA GO POSTAL!!!!

 

So I couldn't find the post, however I did find an article that might help.

wow.. that sucks. f*ck SOA

 

If the dealership believes that your vehicle has been properly maintained, why is it they can't state this fact to SOA to get your warranty work approved?

 

man... everytime I read something about how SOA screws with people it makes me question my loyalty...

 

Thats crazy

 

GMAC did the same with me when i had a blown engine. They aproved me then denied me. I came in with all receipts of oil changes and mileage when they were done and they finally approved me. It took me 3 weeks for them to see the light. In the end they said they would pay for the motor except the oil and fluids. I said no biggy. They did the work and then called me a few weeks later said its time for you to pick up your car. I pick it up pay the fee of a 100 bucks 50 for the oil change and fluids and 50 for my deductable. Part way home i get an oil light coming on. I stop the car and check it.. NO FLIPPIN OIL!! They forgot to put the oil in. I was just in awe over the whole thing.

Good luck with all of this.
