| Description of the problem | Car intermittently loses all power as you are driving and rpm gauge goes up as cruise control and check engine light go on. A very dangerous situation that subaru customers have complained about, but subaru ignores need for recalls. Money spent on troubleshooting is ridiculous! Car works fine after pulling over and restarting after a couple of minutes, only to happen suddenly weeks later. Gas pedal accelerator assembly and or throttlebody issues. Also subaru cars from 2006 and older all have head gasket leaks. They never recalled cars for that problem. That costs $1600. They used a different gasket material after 2007 |
