| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: have a 1999 forester l w/auto tramsmission. i can drive in reverse all day with no problem. going forward is hit and miss. sometimes i can sit for 15 to 30 minutes before the forward gears engage. once forward engages, i have no problem until i turn off the ignition. servicing the trans is a temporary fix for a few thousand miles and then the problem slowly returns. i really like my car, but i'm sure the trans will eventually cease working all together.evidently other are having same problem according to chat rooms.*ak |
