2007 Subaru FORESTER Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	908794
Internal NHTSA #	10449433
Manufacurer	SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC.
Brand	SUBARU
Model	FORESTER
Model Year	2007
File date	25/02/12
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The check engine light illuminated and the cruise control light was flashing upon starting the engine. No other engine symptoms presented themselves. Took vehicle to independent repair shop and was informed the front converter is damaged in addition to the front sensor being bad. Ended up having them all replaced at substantial cost of approx. $2,000. 00. Additional research done in a subaru foresters owners forum shows that many owners are experiencing costly and unnecessary repairs due to faulty o2 sensors, not bad catalytic converters. Any expenses current owners have had to incur should be reimbursed by subaru to those owners, and a recall should be issued to other owners to prevent unnecessary and costly repairs.
