Details

Issue: On certain vehicles, a software problem in the transmission control unit (TCU) may cause the drive chain to slip or break.

If this happens while the vehicle is in motion, there could be a loss of power to the wheels.

Safety Risk: A loss of power to the wheels could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions: Subaru will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to inspect the transmission chain guide and update the TCU.

If necessary, the transmission assembly will be replaced.
