So glad its not on the fa24dit

@SuckIT-2000 says:

Good to know, haven't had the pleasure of working on one yet but it is coming.

@shanwar9844 says:

Great job and ty!

@hussainmohd6298 says:

Would this effect the 2020 XV crosstrek 2.0 FB20?
that's the only engine we have here in the middle east

@Fishsticks187 says:

Replacing something simple that works well with something else that has more potential failure points and moving parts is bad engineering.

@cipowins42 says:

Nothing is dependable anymore. Everything is experimental, trying to keep up with new mandates.

@rabbitonthemoon says:

Guaranteed this is related to fuel economy regulations.. they'll be pushed until gas cars are either more expensive than electrics, or pieces of junk.

@ChengSAE says:

I was about to do this for a customer with a 19 Forrester. I told him to get the part from the dealer. Dealer ended up warranty the car and fixed it. Cv joints started failing. Guy ended trading in for a Kia. Their choice.

@comfortablyunknown700 says:

Why are you pushing customers aways, Subaru?
You pushed me back to a 20-21 Crosstrek, due to the terrible driver "aids".
Now you have pushed me back to nothing past a 2018.

@TheRichHodgson says:

Mine failed at 85k miles, 2020 Outback out of warranty, $2200. I wasn't happy to say the least, but with it replaced and forthcoming reimbursement i'm gonna be okay

@waynepuckett3150 says:

Thanks for this great video!! Perfect explanation and very well done! Much appreciated!!

@OregonAR15 says:

Toyota has been having a fairly similar issue on the new Camry and Rav4.

@johnbanket7000 says:

Designed to fail open! Why not design not to fail at all!?

@dreamrelaxation7239 says:

This was foreseeable. Plastic and electronics working with super hot coolant.

@americanpancakelive says:

Goddamn it Subaru!!!

@wespotter6985 says:

The 2019 outback and legacy are not included in the Extended Warranty

@wespotter6985 says:

How long before they fail on average. I would have to assume that the warranty would cover the problem. Since it's an engine issue would be five years or sixty thousand miles.

@sbukosky says:

After the catalytic converter, all after that was diminishing returns causing more grief than clean air.

@North.van_john says:

Do you know if Subaru Canada also extended their warranty? Also, I noticed this only applies to a few model years. For the forester, it's 2019 to 2021. What about 2022 to 2024? Won't they also be an issue?

@rzh3443 says:

More landfill crap. Nobody ever figures the carbon footprint to replace this junk. Maybe Toyota will be the last reliable brand- not perfect, but at least you have a shot !
