1 Engine Failure problem

Failure Date: 09/03/2018

Vehicle is currently sitting at a local dealership with a bad motor that needs to be replaced. The engine failure correlates with the issues that Subaru has with this year model. I have tried unsuccessfully to come to terms with Subaru, I am moving forward with a lawsuit and all options afforded to me to ensure that Subaru is held responsible for their product.

2 Engine Failure problem

Failure Date: 01/20/2018

I'm sorry, but I'm sending in another incident report as I just want to amend my prior incident report # 11064585. If you are able to access that you will see that my engine failed on my 2013 Subaru forrester. In the description I sent to you, I completely forgot to mention that the Subaru dealership told me that it would cost between $8,000 to $12,000 to fix this problem! I have three kia's in my driveway, all with mileage over 125,000 and none of them have had this problem. I bought the Subaru for their reliability and dependability. Please add this to my prior case number file. Thanks so much.
