Consumer Description

Vehicle just quit running going down the road called roadside assistance after approximately two plus hours no help policeman comes along and said need to move car so he called a tow service and within minutes tow truck comes and tows my vehicle to Subaru dealership in Des Moines Ia. This happened last Sunday come Monday morning I get a call about my car they look into the problem told me I had a bad thermal control valve and parts would not be here until December. I asked if I could have it towed to dealership in Bellevue Nebraska where I live they said call Subaru of America and I did I explained the situation to them and they gave me a case number then said they would call the next day it didn’t happen called them back and they say working on it we’ll it’s been a week and still no call back and I don’t know where the car is I feel I’m being blown off
