| Description of the problem | At 57,000 miles, the car developed a popping and rubbing noise coming from the powertrain and front end. The dealer diagnostic revealed that the entire transmission had to be either replaced or remanufactured. This has resulted in the loss of the car for over 2 weeks and counting. Subaru is apparently aware of the transmission issue which resulted in an extended warranty for all affected vehicles, however the total failure of the transmission while driving would put people at great risk. |
