UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
I am not writing because of a vehicle failure. I'm contacting you because my daughter purchased this vehicle for my grandson, and we find the vehicle did not come with a spare tire. I called Subaru and told them I would like to purchase a spare and a wheel. I was informed by the dealership, and directly from Subaru, that they don't make a spare tire for the vehicle. They advised that Subaru found that the fuel economy was being sacrificed due to the weight of the tire, so they decide not to make one to fit this model. I know this is not the normal issue you deal with, but not having a spare tire or an option to purchase one, I believe is a huge safety issue. I have no other documentation. Thank you for your time. I would appreciate your help.
