NHTSA Complaint #737635 — 1995 SUBARU LEGACY

SINCE CAR WAS PURCHASED IT HAS BEEN INTO VARIOUS DEALERSHIPS REGARDING A WATER LEAK INTO THE MAIN CABIN. EACH DEALERSHIP HAS CLAIMED THE CAR WAS REPAIRED ONLY TO HAVE IT LEAK AGAIN SHORTLY THEREAFTER. THE CAR ONLY LEAKS DURING A HEAVY RAIN AND WHILE SITTING IN A PARKED POSITION. I HAVE BECOME QUITE CONCERNED WITH THIS PROBLEM. A CONCERN IS IF THE WATER IS GOING INTO THE CABIN WHERE ELSE IS IT POSSIBLY GOING AND AFFECTING. IS WIRING BEING AFFECTED? THE LAST DEALERSHIP TO TRY AND TACKLE THIS ISSUE HAS CLAIMED THAT THE CAR'S DRAIN HOLES WERE PLUGGED AND WATER WAS BACKING UP INTO THE CABIN. DEALERSHIP SUPPOSEDLY BLEW OUT THE DRAIN HOLES YET THE CAR CONTINUED TO LEAK AFTER THE NEXT BIG RAIN. ANOTHER CONCERN OF MINE REGARDS THE DRAIN HOLES. IF THESE HOLES LIKE THEY SAY BECOME PLUGGED, ISN'T THAT A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT IN ITSELF? WASN'T THE CAR DESIGNED WITH THAT IN MIND? I HAVE GONE AROUND AND AROUND WITH SUBARU ON THIS PROBLEM ONLY TO END UP FRUSTRATED. THEY, TO THEIR CREDIT, HAVE NOT CHARGED ME YET FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT YET THE PROBLEM REMAINS. PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN. THANK YOU. *AK
