Tail light definitely kinda eh..
I havent had the pleasure of having tail light condensation as some have on the forums but a sharp leaf actually flew into mine.. lol
Just wanted to share (btw if this happens to you get a vacuum and suck it out rather than take out your headlights).

I noticed my tails both had small dead insects (gnats) laying inside them on my last wash (yesterday) and I know they were not there before... Will be asking the dealer about that one for sure!

No, of course not.
That's the point most of us made when the clowns make that comment. In the first few months the twins were out, the phrase: "but it's a cheap $25k car" was used much too often to dismiss the issues they were/are having. Their comments wouldn't apply to a $15000 car either. In the case we are talking about, it's the company making the lights that sucks, not necessarily Subaru just because they chose to use them. And it has nothing to do with the cost of the vehicle. |
