NHTSA Complaint #11207362 — 2013 SUBARU IMPREZA

I INITIALLY CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER TO FIX THE RECALL (ENGINE VALVE MALFUNCTION) ON JANUARY 18, 2019. THEY SOONEST AVAILABLE DATE TO SCHEDULE THE REPAIR WAS TODAY, MAY 13, 2019 CITING A BACK ORDER ON PARTS. ALMOST 5 MONTHS LATER. ATTACHED IS THE SCREENSHOT OF THE DAY I MADE THE PHONE CALL. THEY ALSO INDICATED IN THE PHONE CALL WHEN I MADE THE APPOINTMENT THAT THE REPAIR WOULD NOT TAKE LONG AND I WOULD HAVE MY CAR BACK THE NEXT DAY. TODAY, THEY TELL ME THAT THEY WILL LIKELY HAVE MY CAR FOR ABOUT A MONTH BECAUSE THEY ARE BACKLOGGED AND THE AMOUNT OF WORK INVOLVED IS "MORE THAN ANYONE ANTICIPATED." I FEEL THAT NEARLY 6 MONTHS CANNOT BE CONSIDERED A "REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME."
