DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROX 30MPH, HEARD A NOISE, CAR STALLED AND WOULD NOT START BACK UP, BROUGHT TO SUBARU DEALER WHERE I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY DUE TO LACK OF OIL, GOT THE CAR BACK WITH THE ENGINE IN PIECES, FOUND THE PISTON OUT OF CYLINDER 2 AND PARTS OF THE RING LANDS WERE CRACKED OR MISSING.

WHEN PULLING THE FUEL DOOR RELEASE LEVER THE DOOR FAILS TO OPEN. HAPPENED ONCE A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO. THEN ABOUT 2 MONTHS AGO IT WAS EVERY OTHER TIME I NEEDED TO FILL UP. NOW IT'S EVERY SINGLE TIME. I FUEL UP EVERY 4-5 DAYS AND IT'S STARTING TO BECOME A HASSLE. I PICK UP MY WIFE FROM WORK SO THAT'S WHEN I DECIDE TO FUEL UP, SHE REACHES OVER AND PULLS THE LEVER MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE I SLIP MY ID/DEBIT CARD THROUGH THE GAP TO POP OPEN THE FUEL DOOR OPEN. SOMETIMES THE DOOR POPS OPEN A BIT WHERE I CAN PULL IT OPEN WITH MY NAILS. IT NEVER FULLY OPENS HOW IT USED TO BEFORE LIKE WHEN I BOUGHT IT. WHEN I'M BY MYSELF SELF I DRIVE OVER BUMPS WHILE PULLING THE RELEASE LEVER REALLY QUICKLY, NOT TO ME
