I suck at reading cmprehension? I know for a fact there was significant mileage, that is not a guess, that is a fact told to me by someone with significantly more knowlegde about this situation than you or I. I stated that already so who sucks at reading comprehension now?

Oh man it's getting deep.. Alright, you are obviously on a mission here and you can have it, but you are still saying weird stuff that just doesn't make sense. He didn't say the tire was dragging - at least I didn't see that. There would be no burning rubber - evidently you do not understand what would need to happen to make a brake rotor and caliper look like the ones in the picture or much else about braking systems for that matter. There would not be a severe decrease in braking power before or after the incident simply with one brake line clamped. The average driver would not notice decreased or little braking power on a single rear brake in normal driving even if it were this way for a long while (as was implied by the OP stating that he noticed his rotor was rusty).
It would be very unlikely that you would smell something like that in that area. The ventilation system is letting air out in the rear of the vehicle - the only place for the smell to come in would have air rushing outward until the car stopped. I have had similar things happen before and the smells did not enter the car till the car stopped. I have no idea about the time and mileage between the work and the incident. Evidently you personally inspected the car when it left the dealership otherwise you wouldn't know what was and was not there when it left the shop. Saying that "A Subaru tech wouldn't do that" is just retarded. Your knowledge-free comments that keep simply restating what you are saying have lost their entertainment value.
I am not saying someone at the dealership screwed up and they should pay. In fact it seems that the OP went and had it fixed somewhere else on his own. I am saying the things you are pointing out that are so condemning of this person - simply do not make sense. Sounds like you are just trying to make this person look bad whether you are or not. Either way - it's all yours.
