Letter:
I'm the owner of an '02 WRX with almost 12,000 miles. Since it was new, I noticed a vibration when letting the clutch out in first gear. The Subaru tech line told me there is no fix for this problem, which they call clutch chatter, and which happens to many WRX's. They said the vibration is due to how the car was put together and Subaru is aware of it, but does not intend to put out a recall because it is not a safety related.

Response:
Our WRX does the same thing, but it doesn't concern us much because it in no way affects performance and only barely affects drivability.
Thats pretty crappy. If I bought a car as expensive as a WRX, I would expect this not to happen. Or at least have the problem fixed damn it.
