Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Pulling into parking space at work, going no more than 5 MPH. Vehicles lunged forward and hit tree. The engine seemed to slow down and then revved suddenly. Although I hit the brakes, vehicle did not stop.”

NHTSA complaint #11074526, filed 2018-02, 42,000 miles

“I would like answer to why the CVT was given an extended warranty and if there is a future recall on this transmission due to stalling? I never received notice of the 10 year or 100,000 mile extended warranty whichever comes first. My car is above that (123,000 miles). I have been having issues with it and it was diagnosed with CVT problems and the estimated repair cost is over $8,000. The Subaru dealer told me they aren't even allowed service the transmission... Is this due to the problems? …”
