| Description of the problem | While driving the transmission light starts flashing along with the brake lights many warning lights and i drove it right to the dealer just a couple miles away they tested it said the transmission is no longer functioning properly the car was making a low pitched rumbling sound for a few weeks before that and for a long time there was a delay while putting the shifter in to park before that for over year and a half while i was driving when i would slow down to a stop the engine would slow down where it seem like it was going to stall out dealer checked it and said the transmission was ok that was over a year ago now one month out of the extended warrantee it conks out completely and subaru does not want to do anything about it i wondered if you are still talking about doing a recall on the transmission because subaru got around it before by doing this extended warranty? There should be a recall on this faulty transmission that they used in this 2013 subaru vehicle thanks |
