Hi there- I have a 2002 Forester and noticed a few months after buying it and moving to New England that the clutch was definitely "off" esp. in the morning when the car was cold. I took it to a local dealer and they told me nothing was wrong with it (it was under warranty at that point) now at 58,000 miles it is getting worse and I've recently learned from Car Talk that this is a familiar problem and Subaru should replace it. Does anyone have any advice at how to approach the local dealer again (esp. when they have been patronizing bastards to me since I'm a young woman?) Car Talk said to go straight to the Zone rep. Has anyone had experience with asking for a replacement? Thanks!
