Subaru Wrx 2009 Power Train Review #10503870

SUBARU WRX 2009 car safety problem was reported on Apr 18, 2012.SUBARU WRX 2009, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . some time last summer my clutch pedal began making a light squeak upon disengagement. i played it off for a good bit of time as a hinge or spring on the pedal assembly, but after lubing it some, i noticed it was the bulkhead flexing. the noise is also becoming more of a constant as time goes on. after some research i noticed the quantity of people having this issue and was shocked with the typical subaru dealership response that was reported. the noise is still quite intermittent, but has been more common as of late. i intend to go to the dealership soon to see if this can be remedied. no tsbs have been released detailing this issue short of one tech tip back in 2009 that did not even point to the bulkhead mount as the source of a pedal noise. i do have to say it is rather disappointing that no measures have been taken to even attempt to get owners to bring cars in for an under the table recall, since this can result in serious issues such as a clutch that cannot be disengaged. the implications of that can go from bad (not being able to leave the drive way) to pretty catastrophic (cruising on the highway and not being able to shift to neutral or other gears). *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 32000 miles.

Subaru Wrx 2009 Power Train Review #10523984

SUBARU WRX 2009 car safety problem was reported on July 08, 2013.SUBARU WRX 2009, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . the clutch pedal on my 2009 wrx makes a loud creaking noise every time it's depressed. when i investigated the noise, i noticed that the entire clutch pedal bracket assembly (attached to the forward firewall) shifts approx 1/4 inch every time the clutch pedal is depressed. i found that the three spot welds securing the clutch pedal bracket to the forward firewall were broken. from the outside of the firewall, just under the windshield wipers, i saw the spot welds pulling away from the firewall every time the clutch pedal was depressed. this allows the entire clutch pedal bracket assembly to move, causing the creaking noise. if the bracket completely separates from the firewall, the clutch may become completely inoperative - especially dangerous while driving. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Subaru Wrx 2009 problem was reported in BEREA, OH. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

SUBARU WRX 2009 car safety problem was reported on June 01, 2013.SUBARU WRX 2009, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . i was driving slowly through my neighborhood, put in the clutch and heard a loud crack. i couldn't figure out what it was so after taking a quick look i kept driving. every time i put the clutch in i heard a loud creak or squeak. it got worse over the next months. yesterday, i realized that the firewall had cracked where the clutch and brake pedal mount. the metal flexes when clutching or braking. if i use the clutch i can see the brake pedal move about half an inch back. i do not believe this allows the clutch to fully depress and i think that if i have to make an emergency stop the crack could get worse and tear not allowing the car to stop at all. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 47000 miles.

Subaru Wrx 2009 Power Train Review #10547738

SUBARU WRX 2009 car safety problem was reported on Mar 01, 2012.SUBARU WRX 2009, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . 2009 stock wrx with 66k miles on it, but problem (squeak) started at about 38k miles. i only drive surface streets and have never tracked/raced/etc my wrx. my clutch assembly squeaks and shifts whenever i depress/release the clutch pedal, regardless of vehicle speed or pedal speed. i've lubricated the various hinges with standard lithium grease which removed a very small portion of the noise, but the squeak is still prominent. brake pedal moves to the left as i depress the clutch pedal more. clutch master cylinder flexes in and out on the firewall whenever i depress/release the clutch pedal- this might also lead to early failure of the master cylinder due to misalignment of the piston from the supporting structure flexing (not to mention the supporting structure flexing way too much for standard operation). i'm concerned that my pedal assembly's supporting structure will fail, leaving the clutch pedal and possibly the brake pedal (if it's also supported by it which it seems it is) useless while driving: an extremely hazardous and life-threatening situation. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 38000 miles.

SUBARU WRX 2009 car safety problem was reported on Aug 01, 2013.SUBARU WRX 2009, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with ENGINE . i bought my subaru in february of 2013 with approx 75000 miles on the odo. i believe the defect had already been there when i bought it and i hadn't noticed it until it got slightly worse. the brake pedal and the clutch flexes when i press either of them. pressing the clutch will move the brake pedal in the down position approx. 1/3 of an inch same with the brake pedal. the welds connecting the pedal bracket to the firewall are not welded correctly. it needs to be reinforced by something else to assure me that the clutch and the brake pedal will not move whilst driving. it scares me to drive my vehicle to and from work because of the possibility that these welds will break. which will make me unable to press either pedal and i could lose my ability to clutch and brake. which could result in me going 70mph possibly (interstate speeds) into another car or obstacle. or simply rear ending someone in traffic or rolling back into them being unable to brake. if this bracket breaks off of the bulkhead/firewall i will have no brakes or clutch then my car becomes a public safety issue. someone or people could get hurt if this happens and it could. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 76000 miles.

SUBARU WRX 2009 car safety problem was reported on Jan 10, 2014.SUBARU WRX 2009, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . on my 2009 subaru impreza wrx, i've dealt with a squeaky clutch pedal for quite some time, close to 30k miles now. within the past 5k miles, a clicking sound has occurred at the same time and within the past 1k miles the sound has grown significantly worse with a grinding sound in addition to all previous sounds. upon further inspection the entire pedal bracket assembly moves upon clutch or brake pedal engagement. in addition, clutch cylinder moves when it should be static. this is all due to the firewall being too thin, flexing, and ultimately the metal endured enough fatigue to break around the pedal bracket spot welds. this issue is a safety issue because the pedal assembly should never move, nor should it separate from the firewall. no recall as of yet, despite this being a known issue to the manufacturer for several years. current mileage is 56,740 miles. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 56740 miles.

SUBARU WRX 2009 car safety problem was reported on Oct 01, 2013.SUBARU WRX 2009, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . my clutch pedal has been creaking horribly the past 12 months. i've read numerous people talking about a faulty weld on the clutch assembly mounting to the firewall, but didn't think it could happen to my car. i took it to the dealership and they wanted to charge me $1500 just to pull out the transmission and look at the clutch when it's obvious the welds are faulty and have gone bad! i told him the thousands of people who have complained about the exact same issue and that subaru of america was aware of the "known issue" but no dice. they insisted on a $1500 diagnostic check which didn't even include the price for an actual fix! soa wasn't much help, the sent a tech down to the dealership and the mechanic had him convinced they should pull out the transmission before doing anything else. my break pedal and clutch pedal both move significantly more than before, almost 2-3 inches. i'm afraid one day i'll be driving and i'll find the whole assembly lying on the floor in my car and will not be able to brake. this is really poor design and i'm surprised a recall has not been given. there is a serious risk of safety here and subaru should be taking initiative to fix the problem before it's too late and folks start totaling cars and bringing risk to people around them. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 57000 miles.

SUBARU WRX 2009 car safety problem was reported on Sept 02, 2013.SUBARU WRX 2009, manufactured by Subaru of America, Inc. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . the clutch pedal on my 2009 wrx makes a loud creaking noise every time it's depressed. when i investigated the noise, i noticed that the entire clutch pedal bracket assembly (attached to the forward firewall) shifts approx 1/4 inch every time the clutch pedal is depressed. i found that the spot welds securing the clutch pedal bracket to the forward firewall seem to be broken. this allows the entire clutch pedal bracket assembly to move, causing the creaking noise. i am afraid that if the problem gets worse the clutch will fail to disengage completely. if the bracket completely separates from the firewall, the clutch may become completely inoperative - especially dangerous while driving. it is especially disconcerting to watch the brake pedal move back and forth when the clutch pedal is depressed. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 58000 miles.

Subaru Wrx 2009 Reports


I test drove a 2011 Subaru Outback yesterday at night in a very dark area with the headlights on. I could only see out of the bottom third of the windshield. The top two thirds of the windshield looked as if a black curtain had dropped down over i
