| Description of the problem | The cv axle joint went bad at 90k. Clicking noise. I thought that was an issue for down the road. Subaru corp gave me a $500 coupon for the right front axle going bad. Approximately 5 months later, that axle had to be replaced. Also both back wheel bearings had to be replaced. Currently, the driver side cv joint sounds like it is going bad again. About 60k later. Weak parts. This is a progressive issue and not a sudden one. |
