THE CLUTCH ON THIS VEHICLE HAS FAILED THREE (3) TIMES. IT WAS REPLACED BY THE DEALER IN 1995, REPLACED AGAIN IN 1999 AND HAS FAILED A THIRD TIME IN DECEMBER 2001. THE FAILURE OF THE CLUTCH IS A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD AS THE DRIVER SUDDENLY FINDS THE VEHICLE CAN'T MOVE. ALL OF THE REPLACEMENTS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED BY THE ORIGINAL DEALER USING SUBARU ORIGINAL PARTS.*AK
