2005 Subaru LEGACY Vehicle Speed Control Cruise Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	632990
Internal NHTSA #	10193129
Manufacurer	SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC.
Brand	SUBARU
Model	LEGACY
Model Year	2005
File date	01/05/07
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CRUISE CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Cruise control on 2005 subaru legacy wagon is intermittent over a range of operating conditions (50-70 mph, straight/flat, slow/steady curve, uphill, hot weather, cold weather, etc.). Cannot pinpoint to one particular combination of operating conditions. Perhaps intermittent electrical connection, bad sensor or computer control failure. When problem occurs, "cruise" light always stays on, but "set" light turns off and engine loses acceleration. Resuming/resetting the cruise control does not solve the problem. Notified milford subaru (nh) during 22,500 mi service and they could not recreate problem. Notified milford subaru (nh) again during 30,000 mi service (they have the car now, will be picking up tonite). Have not been able to find nhtsa recalls or service bulletins on this topic, but have seen internet message boards where other subaru owners have experienced a similar problem with the 2005 legacy.
