2010 Subaru FORESTER Air Bags Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1351037

Manufacurer	Subaru of America, Inc.
Brand	SUBARU
Model	FORESTER
Model Year	2010
File date	11/04/13

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The airbag tension pens broke at 31,583 miles, requiring a replacement of the airbag module at. After pressing on the horn, the horn remained engaged. I removed the fuse, took the car to don beyer subaru in alexandria, virginia and was informed the airbag tension pens had broken. Subaru of america will not classify this as a covered repair - even under their gold plus warranty plan. I find it troubling that 2 critical safety mechanisms (horn and driver's front air bag) can be so easily compromised with no concern from subaru of america.
