NHTSA Complaint #11043112 — 2006 SUBARU LEGACY

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.
