| Description of the problem | I have a severe water leak in my brand new subaru 2010 outback, that resulted in mold on the passenger and rear passenger floor mats. When i turned a corner a little flood poured onto my granddaughter ankle and foot. It was as if someone had poured a bucket into my car. My grandchildren had to shopvac the water out of the car. The dealer informed the consumer leaves had plugged the drain tube. Updated ivoq 09/27/10 |
