Didn't they have a recall on the motors? Do a search on here to see! Because I remember reading about transmissions and motor problems.

As a preventative measure, there was a Stop Sale because of a potential engine problem. It's very, very different than a recall. I haven't read any wide spread transmission issues.

ya i read about the stop sale thing. are they done with that yet or wat?

supermarkus · 05-12-2008, 10:29 AM

Oh they're done with the stop sale, but now there is a back log of orders and no cars to fulfill them because the stop sale has the cars held up in testing. My car was slated to arrive on April 24th. I have no idea when it will get here and my salesman claims to be in the dark too.

According to the below site, there are no recalls for any '08 Subies...or I'm doing something wrong.

I think we should be looking for TSB's. If these are serious they usually turn into recall's.

With my VW, I bought a years sub. to bently's software based service manual and it had all the TSB's Does Subaru have something similar?
