Rear wheel bearings need replaced at 104,000 miles at 80,000+- miles my wife noticed low pitched roaring at highway speed but did not inform me or dealer (her vehicle and has always been dealer serviced) I drove the vehicle after 104,000 dealer lof service and observed extremely loud roar at all speeds, we returned the vehicle to dealer and was told new wheel bearings are required, at our expense. Vehicle has never been off road or rough housed it is absurd at this day & age that factory wheel bearings last less than 100k
2014 Subaru XV Crosstrek transmission complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 13 of 13, newest first, as owners wrote them.
At 57,000 miles, the car developed a popping and rubbing noise coming from the powertrain and front end. The dealer diagnostic revealed that the entire transmission had to be either replaced or remanufactured. This has resulted in the loss of the car for over 2 weeks and counting. Subaru is apparently aware of the transmission issue which resulted in an extended warranty for all affected vehicles, however the total failure of the transmission while driving would put people at great risk.
Tl* the contact owned a 2014 subaru xv crosstrek. While driving 65 MPH, all four wheels locked up and the automatic transmission temperature warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle stopped in the middle of the highway. The police department was present. The vehicle was dragged off the road by a tow truck and towed to a tire shop nearby then to the dealer. It was diagnosed that the front differential oil leaked into the transmission and caused the vehicle to shut off. The transmission needed replacement. The vehicle was traded for a different one. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact also stated that, an hour and a half before the failure, the vehicle was at the dealer to inspect the atf warning indicator that was illuminated. The VIN was invalid. The approximate failure mileage was 34,000. Updated 03/29/17 lj
