I took my 90 Subaru Legacey in to get the water pump, timeing belt, tensioners, belt's and thermostate replaced in mid august. Cost me almost $1000.00 to get fixed, was no problem with that amount.
In the begining of december my car got hot, the night before had gotten down to -10. I tested the anti-freeze that was left in it after it had gotten hot, and it wasn't even good enough down to 5 above... When I called them they offered to tow it, however if it was not there fault i would be paying for this. I being a truck mechanic got the car unfroze and took it back to Sioux Fall's Subaru. They said that they had flushed the radiator and put new fluid in, I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS AT ALL!
Now my car overheats and does not blow heat at an stop light... Tried to get them to fix there goof up, but would not return my call for a week. I took the car to a dealer in Omaha Ne, witch noted on my paper work the car had an air pocket in it that was causeing the problem. When I approached Sioux Falls Subaru they called Omaha supposidly, and Omaha supposidly said the problem was deeper.
I believe the car was fine till they put week anti freeze in it and it got hot. And then they just dumped antifreeze in it when we took it back. The car only has 90,000 miles on it, it is not useing anti freeze, It does not smoke white smoke, and the oil is clean, and no bubles in the radiator. I would not take my kids wagon to these guy's... The wheel's may fall off after they work on it!
