Two problems related to transmission solenoid have been reported for the 2013 Subaru Crosstrek. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Transmission valve body failed, solenoid 2 fail, affects traction control, stability control, abs, and hill start control. Causes transmission tempts to overheat.
Solenoid valve in cvt cracked after 6. 5 years of use (roughly 140k - 160k miles). Got it fixed, then 1 year later (another 40k - 20k miles), it went out again. This time the whole transmission needed to be replaced. Both times I was accelerating. The first time from a stop, and second time I was on the freeway going about 70 mph.
