My wife's GT had a harness hanging out of the d-side door panel I noticed yesterday. The Crappyship must have not attached the harness when it was in for one of the many issues its had on that side door. Its a blue/red red/blue harness so I thought it was a speaker, however, both the tweeter and main speaker work just fine. Can't seem to figure out what wouldn't be working but I don't remember the Odo or the Temp being on when the car was off and no key in there before. Any ideas from 03 owners.

 

Yes I could take it back to the Crappyship (which BTW is Cumberland Valley Motors Mechanicsburg, PA) but its an hour drive- the closer dealer is MUCH worse and the car isn't under the B2B warranty anymore. Just searching for what it might be before I'd even bother to yank the door panel off.

Not sure what the harness could be off-hand; heated mirror, mirror motor control thing?

 

I have an '02 OB and the ODO and Clock stay on when the key is out, Temp does not though... maybe they changed the behavior?

If they left the harness off after working on it, it doesnt matter if its under warrenty. They screwed up. Take it back and stay with the car as they fix it.

As I already said, if you read I really don't want to deal with another Subaru dealer issue. EVERY dealer sucks within an hour and a half drive of me. It would cost me $30 in gas to get there then an hour of my time wasted waiting for them to fix it. I'd simply rather send a complaint to Subaru about it so they can ignore it just as they ignore their head gasket failure issues.

 

Mirror functions just fine as best I can tell, not sure on the heater issue though as that's a tough one to figure out.

I can read, but since they screwed up i would take it back. Now if you can do math, 2 hours of driving costing you 30.00 in gas means there is something majorly wrong with the car. Thats almost a tank of gas in 2 hours.

It would also cost them 100 bucks of shop time to fix a return, and the mechanic that screwed it up would have to fix it (normally). the time comes off his books.

See i can read and do math.

Do whatever you want, have fun and good luck.

I'm sorry, WHAT 03 do you own that makes you feel you have an answer. If you can't answer my question then shut your piehole.

 

I love know it all MORONS!!!

Hey Ben, if you do manage to come up here to CVM (that place sucks, I know it well), take a look out back. You'll find almost every generation of Subaru sitting in the back lot. All the mechanics own Subarus . There was even an Ebony Pearl sitting back there when I was there a few months ago.
