It looks as though the TurboTax system automatically formats the TIN for the disregarded entity's owner as a SS# instead of an EIN.  The numbers will still be correct although the hyphens will be in the wrong place.

 

Also, if a disregarded entity's only owner is a partnership then it is technically not a disregarded entity for tax purposes and should file its own partnership return.  

 

Here is some IRS guidance on that.
