Contact corporate, look for service reps on Subaru forums and find a higher-up contact. The issue is 100% not normal. The grind is from the 4th gear syncro failing and not being able to properly match trans speed when shifting during higher RPM.

Not sure how bad yours is, but mine made a very audible grinding sound when shifting to 4th.
