***BELOW IS DIRECT FROM SUBARU*************
Subaru of America, Inc. has determined that a defect that relates to motor vehicle safety may exist in your vehicle. Your vehicle may have been produced with an improperly manufactured transmission parking rod.
When the transmission selector lever is placed in the "P" (Park) position, the transmission park mechanism that is intended to hold your vehicle may not engage.
Should the transmission park mechanism fail to immediately engage when the transmission selector lever is placed in the "P" (Park) position, your vehicle may move/roll without prior warning. This could result in personal injury or property damage.
To ensure your vehicle remains stationary while parked, always engage the parking brake. Properly applying the parking brake will ensure your vehicle remains stationary while parked, even if this condition does exist on your vehicle. This is always recommended and is particularly important at this time.
To correct this condition, Subaru will install a new transmission parking pawl rod and related parts at no cost to you. Please contact your Subaru dealer and schedule an appointment to have the parking rod and related parts replaced.
Your continued satisfaction with your Subaru is important to us. Please understand that we have taken this action in the interest of your safety
and your vehicle's proper operation. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this matter may cause and urge you to schedule an appointment with your Subaru dealer as soon as possible.
