By Christopher JensenSubaru has begun offering an extended warranty for the automatic transmission on about 1.5 million vehicles covering a wide range of models going back to the 2010 model year. The action comes as more than 100 angry and frightened owners have complained to federal regulators about transmission problems causing stalling. However, there isn’t a sole reason for the continuously variable transmission (CVT) warranty being extended, said Subaru spokesman Dominick Infante. Infante said the automaker was responding to “general customer feedback” including complaints about repairs and performance. Some of that customer feedback has been shared with federal safety regulators.
