Subaru transmission hydraulic sensor may inaccurately measure the hydraulic fluid pressure.
The short version
Subaru of America, Inc. reported a problem with the automatic transmission control module (tcm/pcm/tecm). Here is what owners need to know.
The transmission hydraulic sensor may inaccurately measure the hydraulic fluid pressure.
If the fluid pressure is measured higher than its actual value, the hydraulic pressure will be reduced. If this occurs, the transmission drive chain may not have the proper tension, resulting in a loss of drive power and an increased risk of a crash.
Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will reprogram the transmission control unit, free of charge.
