2009 Subaru WRX Structure Body Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1163518
Internal NHTSA #	10692170

Model	WRX
Model Year	2009
File date	17/03/14
Component	STRUCTURE:BODY
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	I got off work and was on my way home, pushed the clutch in to hear a wonderful snap and i had zero control of my clutch causing me to not be able to shift into or out of any gear. Chassis fatigue and cracking resulting in damage/potential compromise of driver controls. Welds on the firewall are poor and its a manufacturer fault that many have brought to surface with the nhtsa and the soa (subaru of america) but there is not enough of the cars produced for anyone to take action or for subaru to care for the safety of the owners of the vehicle. Losing complete operation of the clutch assembly due to the welds of the very poor spot welded firewall going out is a major concern and should be addressed as a high risk safety hazard for the operator and others on public roadways. I need subaru to fix the problem that they caused from the very beginning of the manufacture process of my vehicle.
