Is CAMVAP a government program administered under the authority of law, or some private legal service that helps consumers negotiate with car manufacturers? Their success rate seems quite low, indicating they are the latter. Here in the states, we have very robust "lemon laws" wherein the manufacturer is obligated, under force of law, to take a vehicle back and refund its full purchase price. There is no wiggle room, no negotiation after a certain point. I believe your vehicle would have reached that point in my state.

All of that said, if it is of no cost toy you, I would start with D. I would keep driving it while working my way through. I would be surprised if there were any obligation to stop driving it, and give up use of the vehicle, while this is in arbitration. Besides, it sounds like by driving it, you may be presented with opportunities to build your case.

Good luck. I've been a long-time Subaru customer, and have never had a bad one. I have seen, however, where even us long-time customers are looking elsewhere. They are apparently resting on their laurels at the current time. Lots of complaints quite similar to yours. We may look elsewhere next time...
