Consumer Description

THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY FRONT BUMPER WAS FALLING OFF. THE DEALER SAID A BRACKET HAD BROKEN. SUBARU WOULD NOT REPLACE THE BUMPER UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THE DEALER DID REPLACE IT FREE OF CHARGE. NOW FOUR MONTHS LATER, THE PASSENGER'S SIDE OF THE FRONT BUMPER IS FALLING OFF. THIS SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE NOT BEEN HIT AND HAVE NOT HIT ANYTHING.
