2007 Subaru Impreza Transmission and drivetrain Problems

“The Subaru of america dealership would not pay for a ecu replacement at the Subaru dealership I brought the 2007 Impreza outback sport to. The bill is $1,100.00 and I am really disappointed in this dealership. They said the mileage is too high to be covered by any warranty. The mileage to date is at 113,000 miles.

Needless to say the car was undrivable and I had to have it towed to my nearest Subaru dealership, brown pontiac, Subaru here in amarillo tx. They tore the transmission apart to find that the third gear was stripped out and not covered under warranty. …”

“I have a 2007 Subaru wrx tr, I purchased a year an half ago, I was driving my car home from work when all of sudden my transmission just started making funny noises, I was able to coast home to my house, put in the driveway, then had it trailed down to my local Subaru dealer, I have not heard if under warranty yet but my car only has 26,000 miles and my 3rd gear is gone along with the syncros, in 1st and 2nd gear, I don't think this should be happen to a brand new car, I thought suabaru's were suppose to last forever that's why I got one, if it is not warrantied I will never purchase a…”

“Transmission failure: brand new 2007 Subaru Impreza, has broken down twice now. Subaru denies warranty. The first transmission repair cost me $2700, now they want another $4500, for the 2nd repair. This car has 5959 miles on it.”
