Even after taking my vehicle in for the brake line recall, months later after a Subaru dealership tested them, my breaks still gave away. It was said that it was severely corroded and it was blown. This happens 3-4 months after I had taken it in to get the recall checked. I ended up having to pay half the cost to fix it. I shouldn't had to. They should've been able to identified it before it had happened. It does not take 3-4 months to be come so severely corroded that my breaks gave away while driving to walmart. Luckily I was right by the dealership so once the warning light came on, I quickly drove it off the city street and into Subaru dealership. As I was parking it, I no longer had breaks. I had immediately pulled my e-brakes in order to stop my vehicle in a parking spot.
Hello, I had bought a 2006 Subaru Legacy 2. 5 gt limited and I live in the hills of western MA, so my car saw 2 winters. Coming back from boston, MA 14 miles from home (out of 135 miles) as I was entering charlmã´nt I slowed down to 30 mph. As I approached a corner with a car coming in my lane. I thought if I went into his lane best case scenario I could make it. But we clipped back bumpers and when I put my brakes on the car started going faster at that time I just said there was puddle with ice underneath. But now with the recall about the brake lines in certain states being recalled, that makes since because when I slammed onto my brakes the car started to go faster not slowing down. I contacted about the accident [xxx] vp of Subaru of America or soa. All he kept on doing was denying about this and offering $500. 00 if I bought a new Subaru and now with the recall of the brakes it makes sense and even the recall he won't replace my vehicle in closing I would like to say that my Subaru was a lemon and at the time of accident they were looking for a car like mine to swap it out with. [xxx] I bet that never will I fill information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).
