nipper Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I am thinking of writing Subaru very sternly worded letter. STERNLY! 215,000 miles and I blew a flex brake line. What crap. They just dont make things last anymore 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikec03 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Can we assume that you are posting about your 2005 subaru? And did metal connection rust off or did the hose pop out of its ferrule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipper Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Yes and I don't know. Tomorrow it goes to the mechanic to find out. I'm having all the lines replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonathan909 Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 I had the long hard line running to the back wheels rot and leak out abruptly in my '95 a couple of years ago. I was in the city at night in very unpleasant winter weather. That experience is a sound argument for manual transmissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had been subject to brake recall and was fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
