Description of the problem	I backed out of my driveway, into the road. When i drove away, no faster that 25 mph, i noticed that all the warning lights on my dash were illuminated. Alarmed, i promptly returned my car to the driveway and shut it off. I had traveled no further than 100 yards. Wondering if maybe it was a fluke, i tried to turn the car on again, but the car was completely unresponsive. I called aaa to have it towed to the dealership. Aaa's diagnostic codes were: p0851, p0705, p0700. Online research showed that these relate to the transmission. Further searches brought up a forbes article about subaru's choice to extend warrantees on known transmission problems instead issuing a recall--so as to save money. When i asked subaru service about the codes, they called them "phantom codes"--however i noted that the repair work was covered under warrantee--indicating it related to the transmission--hardly a "phantom". I am fortunate to have been so close to home when my transmission failed--to have not been on a remote road trip with my kids where there's no cell service, or driving through a sketchy neighborhood on my way home from work, or trying to get my husband to the er with anaphylaxis from a bee sting (all real scenarios i've been in, thankfully with a functioning car). When subaru chooses to let cars fail for a known problem and rely on extended warrantees instead of recalling them before they fail, there are a myriad life-threatening potentialities. Anything less than a recall is negligence on the part of subaru.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
