Fyi: Report is being submitted by co-owner in nc. Reported incident occurred in Florida. At around 20,000 miles the dashboard lit up like a christmas tree and the vehicle began having acceleration issues. At the end of the commute to work, approx 55 miles, the transmission stopped responding to the accelerator and no gear would engage. Driver was able to coast the remaining 500 meters to work. Car was towed to Subaru and after troubleshooting the computer system with Subaru of America the technicians and Subaru of America decided it was a transmission issue. Transmission was replaced with a new transmission free of charge under warranty. Vehicle is currently being repaired at time of report. Time may tell if this is a more widespread issue or simply a random occurrence.

Driving down the road the entire car started vibrating and felt wobbly when I got above 20mph. Pulled over to check tires and under the car, no obvious issues found. Turned off then back on the car, same issue above 20mph. The car was struggling to get up the tow ramp and smelled an acrid odor that both I and the tow truck driver noticed. Made terrible sound when shifting from P through R to D. this all happened on paved roads going back home. The car now has 150 miles on it, bought it 3 days prior new.

Jerky acceleration between 35-50 mph. Cvt "switching gears" up and down. Noticed at 600 miles. This happens sporadically, when it does happen the jolt snaps my head back. Brakes continue to squeal after 600 miles.
