My daughter bought a new Forester last week and was told by a salesman not to use the "sport shift" for 1000 miles or she would damage the transmission. There is nothing in the manual that states that. I have two other make autos that have the same type of feature and used the manual type shifter right away. The same salesman said to turn off the tracking control when it was slippery or she could do a 360, which was totally wrong. I called the service dept and they referred me back to sales. TIA for any info anyone has.
