There are just too many people that have suffered the same DI failure, who have talked to me about the issue, but have asked me not to identify them, so that they are able to sell their cars. I'm not aware of any other catalytic converter failures, which is the topic of this particular thread.

Many early adopters have already sold their cars and/or are selling their cars due to Scion (yes Scion) and Subaru not readily warrantying the failures. A smaller amount have taken matters into their own hands and have purchased Ecutek licenses solely to fix the issue.

We have purchased Ecutek to use with our car in the future, as Subaru won't even acknowledge that there is an updated ECU. Our Subaru dealer is unable to update us to the latest revision that has been going into cars on the assembly line as early as March of 2013, because Subaru of America has not given them the tools and/or ability and/or authorization to do so.

Going forward, we are proceeding with the assumption that we do not have a warranty, and we will carry that mentality to the 2014 we have on order; the 2014 will be tuned as soon as it is broken in.
