Description of the problem	Issue #1: transmission. Starting around 8000 miles, a loud squealing sound would occur periodically during automatic shifting. At first it was only while obtaining highway speeds and later it would happen at city street speeds. The squealing sound would be accompanied by a shuttering feeling as well. We live 3 hours from the dealer and were told by the dealer that the car was just 'getting to know us'. As this problem persisted and worsened, we were finally brought it to the dealer at 12,000 miles and the technician diagnosed a transmission problem and said we need a new transmission. That was on 9/27/19. We are awaiting the availability of a new transmission while driving a loaner. Issue #2: electrical issue. Twice all of the engine warning/dashboard lights came on while driving about 20 mph on a dirt road. The first time was around 9800 miles. I was able to drive the car and brought the car to a local repair shop (subaru dealer is 150 miles away) and his computer diagnosed a possible transmission problem and he rebooted the electrical system. All seemed ok with the electrical system for a while. This happened again around 11,000 miles while being driven at city street speeds and the next morning the electrical system was back to normal. In talking to the subaru dealer by phone, they said there was probably just a bug in the system and it can fix itself. At the 12,000 mile appt, no issues were discovered with the electrical system.
