Approximately three weeks prior to the failure, I noticed an unusual sound while driving, but no other symptoms were apparent at that time, so I continued monitoring it. On the day of the failure, the rear tires began hopping and I lost acceleration while driving. Fortunately, this occurred while I was on my driveway, so I did not need to continue driving further. I parked the vehicle there and had it towed to my mechanic, and later to Rairdon Subaru of Auburn (WA), where the failure was diagnosed by their service department. The vehicle is available for inspection there.  This loss of power and erratic rear-end behavior created a safety risk, as the same failure occurring while driving on a road could have affected the vehicle's ability to accelerate and respond predictably in traffic.  This is a known issue: Subaru's own Technical Service Bulletin 16-107-17R acknowledges CVT transmission problems in 2010–2015 model year Outbacks and other models, and extended the powertrain warranty coverage for this issue to 10 years or 100,000 miles. My vehicle has only about 93,000 miles, but Subaru is denying full warranty coverage because the vehicle is outside the 10-year time limit, despite being well under the mileage limit.    The vehicle has not been inspected by police or insurance representatives — this was a mechanical failure, not a collision.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2013","productMake":"SUBARU","productModel":"OUTBACK","manufacturer":"Subaru of America, Inc."}]}]}
