Description of the problem	My clutch pedal has been creaking horribly the past 12 months. I've read numerous people talking about a faulty weld on the clutch assembly mounting to the firewall, but didn't think it could happen to my car. I took it to the dealership and they wanted to charge me $1500 just to pull out the transmission and look at the clutch when it's obvious the welds are faulty and have gone bad! I told him the thousands of people who have complained about the exact same issue and that subaru of america was aware of the "known issue" but no dice. They insisted on a $1500 diagnostic check which didn't even include the price for an actual fix! Soa wasn't much help, the sent a tech down to the dealership and the mechanic had him convinced they should pull out the transmission before doing anything else. My break pedal and clutch pedal both move significantly more than before, almost 2-3 inches. I'm afraid one day i'll be driving and i'll find the whole assembly lying on the floor in my car and will not be able to brake. This is really poor design and i'm surprised a recall has not been given. There is a serious risk of safety here and subaru should be taking initiative to fix the problem before it's too late and folks start totaling cars and bringing risk to people around them.
