Description of the problem	Vehicle started acting as though it was going to stall at stop signs and red lights. All dashboard lights then became lit up. Took to my place of dealership and upon checking transmission fluid, they described it as smelling very foul and was told i need a new transmission. Car is a 2010 subaru outback with 120,000 miles. The cheapest i could find for new transmission was 6000. 00. Thought it was a joke at first, but was told the first call they made it was 7000. 00. The transmission specialist called the cvt subaru transmission "the throw away transmission' as no one ever replaces them at that cost. I have always owned chevy vehicles until i fell in love with the outback. Needless to say i am very disappointed in this vehicle. No more subarus for me!!!
