Above is the link, it's an Chinese forester forum. the owner bought the FXT 2014, it's 2013 in China, 140 days ago, got 7746 km mileage, and during the national holidays in Oct, he was in the beginning of a week-long road trip, the engine just blew, time belt broken, had a hole of 2 cm diameter in the engine, everything inside the engine spread all over.
You can check those pictures, if you have difficulty reading Chinese.
After about 2 weeks, the dealer promised they will replace the engine for free.
The thing is I am on the edge to buy FXT 2014, but this news absolutely knocked me back. Any thoughts on how much percentage this kind of incident would happen? would subaru factory have different manufacture standards for cars selling to different areas?
