| Description of the problem | When highway driving multiple warning lights are illuminated on dash, traction control, eyesight, cruise control off, hill assist. The eyesight systems are disabled shutting off cruise control. When this happens the rear brakes light are not working. When the car is the shut off then restarted and the brake is depressed the car will not come out of park after starting. This happens when it is reset after the car sits off overnight. The last time i could not get it out of the park i went behind the brake pedal and move the brake switch and pressed the connection on top in. This reset the system and i was able to get the car out of park and all the warning light on the dash disappeared. The stoplight switch/brake switch part #83311fj001 is defective. On 3/1/19 subaru announced a recall not sure if it's this part/issues but i am hoping it is. |
