Description of the problem	Within the last year, i have experienced on three separate occasions, instances where the warning lights for various safety systems on my 2015 subaru forester will come on, indicating that the system has been disabled due to a malfunction. These lights always come on while driving, within 15 minutes of the car being started. The first two instances related to my air bags being turned off. When brought to a dealership, they had no explanation, and desired $70 to do an electrical assessment. When i brought it in for that, i was told that the car would have to be displaying the light at the time i brought it in, which the indicator light had turned off in between visits. Today, my abs, traction control, and incline assustance lights came on , indicating that those systems were disabled due to a malfunction. I brought it to my dealer, who told me that the air pressure in the tires was responsible, which ranged from 28lbs to 35 lbs. I had my car serviced at said dealership 2 months ago and the pressure was 35 lbs each. It was suggested to me that the cause of this discrepancy was "parking my car in the sun." both computer-related problems apparently didn't leave a code to be read, according to the dealership. Any information was wiped when the car was turned off.
