| Description of the problem | I received a recall notice for brake lights subaru safety recall wue-90; nhsta recall id 19v-149; april 2019. I called our local dealer to arrange repair and was told that it wouldn't occur until 8 july. What are we supposed to do in the meantime? The car is used for business and the only one we own. We can't just "not drive it" and are apparently at increased risk despite driving approximately 30,000 miles per year. In the two months before this can be remedied it will have been driven approximately 5000 miles, all the while running the risk of getting rear ended. |
