Subaru Outback 2019: CVT issues

I have a 2019 Subaru Outback, I have read a number of concerns regarding Subaru and its CVT issues. Now I am concerned with a number of vehicles that use CVT. I know they offer 5 years warranty however it seems the issues arise when it hits 100,000 km.

The CVT is a relatively new thing having been developed in the 1970s, so there are still teething problems that can crop up with them. But they are now quite reliable and getting more so all the time. I wouldn't be overly concerned about the reports you read.
