| Description of the problem | P0420 code o2 sensors. I had this problem back in 2017. Cruise, skid control, brake light and check engine light come on. Subaru said it was the catalytic converter, 02 sensors and associated piping. Subaru replaced it for free in 2017. Not even 2 years later 8/2019, i am dealing with the same issue again. Same diagnoses. I have seen a multitude of complaints about this issue. Saw a report of a recall for the front 02 sensor on repairpal but it is not listed on subaru's website. Subaru wants to charge 1900 to fix and make me pay 500. 00 for a repair that's should not need to happen in less than two years time! |
