It is great that you are a suby fan, you drive one and work at a dealer. The problem is this is a pretty big issue that should have been recalled years ago and was not. If it happens to your car you will see the problem and understand why there are over 100 pages on this issue. My mechanic and I took apart a much of my engine and changed all the fuel clamps and lines. This did not fix the problem. The fact that you have to pay first then MAYBE get half or all of your $ back is unacceptable. They call it seapage but his is in many cases a leak.
I am a huge suby fan and have been for a longtime. Since I have seen how this issue has been handled by SOA I no longer recommend Subaru's to Family and Friends.
ICE_COLD this was not aimed at you but maybe you will find some cars with this issue then understand.
