2009 SUBARU FORESTER with 65000.0 miles
The secondary air pump in Forester/wrx and other Subaru, turbo models accumulates moisture, as a result of which, in many vehicles the emissions system becomes inoperative with engine malfunction codes P2444, P2444b, P0410, P2440 and other such codes. This appears to be a recurring and an engineering defect in the design of Subaru turbo models which requires expensive fix (upto $1500) and without which, the aforementioned Subaru vehicles will not pass emission controls. Most owners are forced to resort to work arounds such as getting rid of the secondary air injection system altogether, but this increases emissions above epa norms. Please investigate into this issue.

2008 CHEVROLET IMPALA with 45000.0 miles
I own a 2008 with less than 50,000 miles on it and the check engine light came on. I had it diagnosed and was told it is the secondary air injection system (diagnostic trouble code P2444) which caused the vehicle to fail the emissions test. The dealership refuses to repair it and states the warranty is only valid for 3 years or 30,000 miles. I cannot get the vehicle inspected until the problem is fixed and the check engine light goes off. I am very disappointed that a car only 2 years old can have such a major problem in such a short amount of time. The repairs will cost $1600 to $2000 because it is an internal problem with the engine. I tried to get the code reset only to have the check engine light come back on.

2006 SUBARU WRX with 66870.0 miles
Code P1410 secondary air injection system switching valve stuck open. This is a common error many 2006 and up Subaru impreza Wrx owners are having. The emissions system is prone to fail due to carbon buildup or moisture and rust contaminating valves, leading to repairs costing $700 to $1500. This failure is common even with low mileage. Note these codes are also associated with this failure: 06/07 Wrx: P0410 P0411 P0413 P0414 P0416 P0417 P0418 P2431 P2432 P2433 P2440 P2441 P2442 P2443 P2444 07 sti: P0410 P0411 P0413 P0414 P0418 P2431 P2432 P2433 P2441 P2444
