I have an almost new Subaru Outback. It had 5000 miles on it, and a local Subaru dealer here in SC changed the oil before my son drove it to Colorado for to ski over the Christmas hollidays. On the way back near Albuquerque, the oil plug came out, and as you can guess, ruined the engine. The dealer is supposed to repay for a rental car they drove back, and the dealer has had the car towed back to SC. They are supposed to put in a short block. Should I be OK with this, or could I push it and get an entire new engine? So far, they have been fairly nice. Just wanted to know how far I should push. The car now has only a little over 7000 miles on it.
Thanks, JoeO |
