| 2002 | SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK | THE BRAKES THAT COME STANDARD ON THIS VEHICLE ARE NOWHERE NEAR SUFFICIENT FOR A VEHICLE WITH THIS LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE. MY BRAKES ARE SCORED, HAVE GROOVES, AND HAVE CHIPS AND BURRS. DURING MY HOUR COMMUTE TO WORK I EXPERIENCE BRAKE FADE AND BRAKE SHUDDER IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE DEALER TELLS ME THESE PROBLEMS ARE "NORMAL." WELL, IF YOU'RE GOING TO SELL ME A CAR THAT ACCELLERATES AND HANDLES LIKE A RACE CAR, IT SHOULD BE ABLE TO STOP LIKE ONE AS WELL. OR AT LEAST STOP AT ALL! THIS VEHICLE REQUIRES LARGER, MORE PERFORMANCE ORIENTED BRAKES RIGHT FROM THE FACTORY. I HOPE SUBARU HANDLES THIS QUICKLY.*AK |
| 2005 | STRUCTURE:BODY | I HAVE A 2005 WRX STI, AND THE PAINT HAS BEEN CHIPPING OFF!!! I STORE MY CAR PRIVATELY, IT ONLY HAS 18,000 MILES ON IT, AND THE PAINT GETS CHIPPED OFF BY ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. I WAX THE CAR MONTHLY AND GET IT DETAILED QUARTERLY. WHAT KIND OF PAINT CHIPS THAT FAST? I HAVE OTHER FRIENDS WITH SUBARUS AND THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THANKS FOR THE 32,000 DOLLAR LEMON. *JB |
