 Description of the problemOn 07/08/2019 i took my subaru impreza to a local dealership to have recalls wue90 and wty84 competed. It now seems that whatever work was done to satisfy the recalls has been causing the car to malfunction. The recall service was completed on 07/09, and i picked it up that day. Beginning on 07/10, however, the check engine and vehicle dynamics control warning lights started coming on intermittently. So far, these warning lights have displayed for a portion, or for the entirety, of 22 of the past 32 days. Both lights (check engine and vdc) have displayed together every time, and are usually on or off when the vehicle is started. When the lights are on, the cruise control does not function and i have noticed a significant (-21. 6%) decrease from my average gas mileage. On four occasions that i am able to recall, the warning lights also came on under braking (i. E. They were off when i started the car and then turned on at some point during my trip when i pressed the brakes). Whether the warning lights are on or off, i have no way of knowing what isn't working (other than the cruise control as i mentioned). I have taken the vehicle back to subaru twice to try to resolve the issue: first on 07/10 and then on 08/07. They scanned the codes, did some work on it, and gave the car back to me, claiming that it was fixed. The one thing they are failing to consider is that the problem may actually be related to the service performed to complete the recalls because i've never had an issue with the vdc since i bought the car almost six years ago, and i don't believe the check engine light has come on during that period either. At this point, i don't even know if the car is safe to drive. Attachment: photo of warning lights after leaving the camelback subaru (phoenix, az) service shop on 08/07/2019.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
