Windshield washer reservoir fell into wheel well, mounting bolt was missing. Either the bolt fell out or was never installed. I am reporting this because it seems to be a common problem.

2013 Subaru Impreza / Outback Sport 4dr Hatch

148-horsepower 2.0L H4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD

23000 mi Rear tires had begun making fairly loud, rhythmic noise. Asked mechanic to diagnose. Result was: original tires had plenty of tread left, but they showed signs of cupping & feathering. Since it wasn't a safety issue, rotated to front. 
14000 mi Drivers Seat back broke. Seat was rebuilt by dealership under warranty. Subaru fixed the seat but I thought the headrest was loose and not like it was before. The passenger side front seat headrest did not have the same looseness present. Subaru is ordering the parts that affect the headrest.
