I'm too wondering, with your GFs experience, which pedal (clutch or brake) "was pushed to the floor" when she was trying to stop .... ??
(that we may never know, she may not know - for sure)

It's an auto so there was only one pedal she could've pushed. But I did try the brakes afterwards and there was no resistance until the last couple of mm before the pedal touched the floor.
This experience has been so weird, if I didn't try the brakes myself I would've doubted her too. But the fact is that we both love cars and are physically and emotionally hurt when someone keys our cars or even leaves a door ding. She backed into a pole once and we used that as an opportunity to learn how to paint panels. I know that to everyone on this forum, I'm just a stranger and it's very very likely that I could just be making this whole thing up to try and pin this on Subraru, but the fact is that I bought this car for us is the same reason you bought your GT/FT86/BRZ. It's an amazing car, there's nothing like the feeling this car gives you when you drive it. We love this car, and the most ridiculous thing is that we have so much respect for this car and the brand but despite all of this, they decide to completely shaft us.
I just really hope you guys can try and see things from our point of view. We know we've been completely anally/rectally fisted and we just wanted some advice and to share this story with you.
