Description of the problem	On three occasions within a two week period i was driving on city streets and the car would not accelerate when the gas pedal was depressed. On these occasions i was starting from a red light or just after i had braked for something, depressed the gas pedal and the speed did not change. The check engine light came on, the cruise control light flashed and the car went into limp mode. I limped to the side of the road and turned the engine off. On the first try to restart the car it would not turn over. After waiting and trying again the car turned over and the gas pedal would work. The check engine light and the flashing cruise control light remained on and went off after starting the car a couple/few times. I went to my mechanic to check the car and he found p2138 three times in the history. This happened once when entering a traffic circle and twice while crossing intersections, very dangerous! Info on this site and a subaru outback forum shows this to be a problem many have experienced. I called the manufacturer.
