I am not sure what happen. I passed out and when I came to I was sitting in someones yard. There was a lady that seen it all. I went off the left hand side of the road through some high grass and telephone poles. Then some how I end on the right hand side of the road my car was total. I have 6 or 8 air bags and none of them deployed. My selt belts was good. If I didn't have it on, I am not sure how it would have turned out. The doctor said I had a concutsion where my head was moving around so much.
To whom it may concern, I can't emphasize right now how disappointed I am in subaru's customer service in both the USA and in the republic of panama. I currently reside in the republic of panama. I have yet to contact corporate in japan, and I shouldn't have to. Around july of 2010 my wife and I bought a second hand 2006 b9 tribeca from a dealer in phoenix, az. We enjoyed the vehicle so much, that we decided to bring it with us on our move back to panama.
