Only thing I looking to do right now... is swap out my airbag. The only option I have is to buy a 800 dollar, 86 airbag from Japan. Anyone have a better alternative?

MUCH better alternative to that: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29306

The airbag is the only emblem I have left to change.

Do you have it tuned at all, or no? I'm starting to find this interesting, honestly. This is the first time Subaru has had this many problems with a car like this.

I wouldn't worry too much to be honest. It seems that everyone has been getting taken care of, it does suck to be without the car.. I know that feel let me tell you..

i'm driving a yaris right now, I've been hyper miling it to see how far I can go on a tank of gas lol..

Car has Dynotronics stage 1 tune. But it's been running that a month or so straight and had no problems. I just find it annoying. Of all the times the car wants to break its when I'm taking out a hot female to lunch.

Well I've read in the warranty sub forum of some people having similiar things happen. Car got to the dealership and started right up. Too much technology in cars nowadays me thinks.

Oh and my personal favorite, crank bearing failures (picture from my 09 WRX)


That being said Subaru has taken care of me, and I am sure Scion will do the same

Sorry to hear about everyone's unfortunate happens. Here is mine. Took my car into Universal Toyota a couple weeks ago because my driver small side window seal had come up and water was getting in each time I washed. Seal replacement means having to have the entire window replaced due to the seal being physically attached to the window glass. Car had to be left over night and glass company had to be called out next day. So while doing this warranty repair the glass on my stock window is broken and glass goes everywhere. Thankfully Patrick in service out there let me know what was going on. Glass and seal were replaced and re-tinted and all glass vacuumed out. Went to pick her up today and all seemed fine until I noticed that I had more miles on my car than when I dropped it off. No real proof as of now but while driving home and comparing mileage I come out about 6 miles over what might have been my own trip mileage. Plus I had a big thumb grease smug on my passenger door handle....

I ran mine for 3 months before anything happened, but there is no indication that anything else failed on the car so it might be the tune.

Any more info on what happened with your car, any misfires?
