Transmission Failure problems of the 2011 Subaru Outback

The randomly stalls when trying to accelerate after coming to a complete stop. This has happened on numerous occasions, and has left me and my son stalled in the middle of an intersection on a few occasions. On one occassion, we were almost hit by a car entering the intersection. In addition to this, the at oil lights up whenever traveling longer distances. The mechanic has said the car has a failing transmission. I contacted soa due to the the extended warranty they have on the vehicle. The car meets the 10 year time-frame of the extended warranty but they will not honor the extension because of the miles which were 132,000. I just bought the car put maybe $1000 miles on it before the transmission started giving us problems. There is a documented issue with the Subaru 2011 cvt that requires a recall, not an extended warranty. Look all of the internet on customers having their cvt transmission fail at just over 100,000 miles and being stuck with $7000 repair bills.

Transmission failed - loss of power while driving.

My vehicle was covered under the �extended warranty� Subaru offered after my oem transmission was failing and overheating with 154,000 miles on the odometer. 13 months, and 28,000 miles later, my second transmission is failing. I have an offer from Subaru of America for a $2000 credit to trade in my car on a new Subaru. The dealership that performed the warranty work also offered me %50 coverage since it was close to the 12 month warranty they offer on work. I do not want a new car, I want my car to be able to last. 18,000 miles on a transmission is not good enough and a consumer should be able to expect at least 75,000 miles or 3 years. These cvts are flawed, and Subaru customers need to be treated better than this, at least from corporate. Subaru deserves to recall this part and take care of the issue. At the very least the consecutive transmissions should be warrantied as a new part and not considered part of the current vehicle power train mileage warranty. I've been a loyal Subaru owner for 12 years, driving 3 different cars. I have no choice but to accept my local dealerships offer to replace the part, and I'm disgusted by Subaru of America's offer to buy another one of their shoddy vehicles for a small discount. I hope that this comment persuades the NHTSA to mandate a recall, and the company to change its practices, I also hope that readers will reconsider their Subaru�s, and get out of their unsafe cars as long as they can do so. This company is not worth it, don't be fooled by their marketing campaigns. Choose a Toyota SUV or truck.

Transmission failure after 135000 m replace with use one for $3800. 00 new one is $8000. 00 + labor = 10000. 00 is to expensive.

The issue started at around 25,000 miles. My 2011 Subaru Outback, upon shifting from reverse to drive or from park to drive from a cold start, the transmission would pause for a second or two then would exhibit a loud bang/clunk and the car would lurch forward. Warming the car for several minutes (~5-10 minutes) did not solve the issue. I read others who had the same issue so at 28,622 miles (~1. 5 months from the first incident) I brought the car to the Subaru service/dealer. Unfortunately they could not replicate the issue, likely due to the fact that they did a transmission relearn before trying to test the transmission. The car was fine for about 2 days after receipt from service, but then the bang/clunk/lurch began again, on and off, under the same conditions mentioned earlier (I. E. , cold start, shifting into drive, etc. ) until its failure on April 22 (mileage ~33,400, ~3 months after bringing the car to the Subaru service/dealer noted above). The transmission failed while I was driving 45 mph, after I heard a bang from under the vehicle. The vehicle was still controllable, but only first gear worked. The car today (April 23) is at the service station to determine if it is a transmission issue or a computer issue.
