THE REAR RIGHT WHEEL BEARINGS HAVE FAILED 4 TIMES, THE LEFT REAR WHEEL BEARING HAS FAILED ONCE. NLM
#760429

REAR BEARINGS FAILING; WHEELS MAKE DULL ROAR ABOVE 30 MPH. FROM NUMBER OF SIMILAR REPORTS IN THIS DATABASE, THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT WITH THE 1999 FORESTER, YET SUBARU WILL NOT PAY FOR THE REPAIR BECAUSE (1) VEHICLE HAS OVER 36,000 MILES ON IT, AND (2) WE DIDN'T HAVE THE 30,000 MILE SERVICE PERFORMED. A DEFECT IS A DEFECT, AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED -- WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE IF I HAD THE 30K MAINTENANCE PERFORMED OR NOT???? I DIDN'T EXPECT THIS KIND OF REACTION FROM A "QUALITY" CAR COMPANY.*AK
