| Description of the problem | The fuel door sticks requiring it to be pried open in order to fuel the vehicle. Took it to the dealer. They know about this problem because they have a special tool to open the stuck fuel door. I had to fight to get them to replace the fuel door cable. I ended up contacting subaru of america to resolve this issue. I notified them when my vehicle had 35,000 miles on it but they refused to address it until 43,000 miles. |
