VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE TRAVELING DOWN A RESIDENTIAL ROAD, MY 2006 OUTBACK SEDAN LOST ACCELERATION CONTROL AND WENT INTO LIMP MODE IN WHICH IT WAS ONLY IDLING AND HAD NO CONTROL FROM ACCELERATOR. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT BEGAN BLINKING. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF FROM DRIVE, MOVED THE SHIFTER TO PARK AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AFTER A MINUTE OR SO. IT STARTED UP FINE BUT SEEMS TO BE IDLING LOW, SPUTTERING AND HESITATING A LITTLE. ESPECIALLY WHEN REVERSING SLOWLY OR PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR VERY LIGHTLY FROM IDLE. A MECHANIC NEARBY SAID THE PROBLEM CODE WAS READING "BAD THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR." I BELIEVE THE ERROR CODE WAS P2138. UPON RESEARCHING THE ISSUE AND AS OTHERS HAVE SUGGESTED, THIS IS SUPPOSEDLY A COMMON PROBLEM YET NO REAL REASON FOR THE FAILURE CAN BE IDENTIFIED. SOME HAVE SAID THAT REPLACING THE THROTTLE BODY WHICH INCLUDES THE AFOREMENTIONED SENSOR HELPED THE SITUATION. OTHER SAID THAT REPLACING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSEMBLY WHICH INCLUDES THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR HAS HELPED. IN A FEW CASES WITH BOTH REPAIRS, THE PROBLEM RECURRED. I AM BRINGING MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO READ THE HISTORY OF FAILURE CODES AND REPAIR THE PROBLEM. A NOTE TO FELLOW COMPLAINANTS OUT THERE, PLEASE UPDATE YOUR POST IF YOU HAD A REPAIR DONE WHICH SOLVED THE PROBLEM AND HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN SINCE AN RECURRENCE IF ANY SINCE THE REPAIRS WERE MADE, IT REALLY WOULD HELP THE REST OF US OUT THERE WHO DON'T WANT TO LET THE DEALERSHIPS SCRATCH THEIR HEADS AND CHARGE US FOR UNNECESSARY REPAIRS. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
SUDDEN DECELERATION OF VEHICLE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE CAR GOES LIMP. VEHICLE IS RESTARTABLE AFTER 5 MINUTES, HOWEVER THE THROTTLE DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY AFTERWARD AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE NORMALLY, THUS IT DRIVES MUCH SLOWER, AND WILL NOT GO ABOVE 60 MPH. PROBLEM COMES AND GOES. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE DRIVING HOME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT BEGAN FLASHING. THE CAR BEGAN TO DECELERATE AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECAME UNRESPONSIVE. VEHICLE CONTINUED TO IDLE NORMALLY, BUT DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR HAD NO AFFECT ON THE ENGINE. SEARCHING FORUMS RETURNS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON AND DANGEROUS ISSUE WITH THE DRIVE-BY-WIRE THROTTLE OF THESE VEHICLES. HAD IT HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY AS OPPOSED TO A 30MPH RESIDENTIAL STREET, IT WOULD PROBABLY HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

SUSPENSION
PURCHASED THIS CAR USED LAST JAN. NO INCIDENTS YET, BUT CAN NOT DRIVE (WITH PASSENGERS IN THE BACK OR WEIGHT IN THE CARGO AREA) OVER 35 MPH IN CERTAIN ROAD CONDITIONS, MAINLY WHEN THERE IS ICE AND DRY PAVEMENT TOGETHER. HAS DANGEROUS REAR STEER PROBLEM IN THOSE CONDITIONS. I HAVE DRIVEN EVERY TYPE OF VEHICLE FROM SEMI'S TO OLDER SUBARU OUTBACKS AND WAS BORN AND RAISED IN MICHIGAN. THIS CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH MY FAMILY OR OTHER PASSENGERS IN THE CAR! HAVE TRIED TIRES, STIFFER SPRINGS AND STRUTS AND ALIGNMENT. THE CAR IS 90% BETTER WHEN I AM THE ONLY ONE IN THE CAR. NOTE** I AM NOT AN AGGRESSIVE DRIVER AND NOT EXPECTING TOO MUCH BECAUSE IT'S AWD. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2006 SUBARU OUTBACK. SHE WAS DRIVING IN WINTER CONDITIONS. SHE WAS DRIVING THE 2 MILE BRIDGE TO OUR HOME WHEN THE ACCELERATION SUDDENLY FAILED AND THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY SLOWED FROM 55 MPH TO 35 MPH. THE ROADS HAD SNOW AND ICE ON THEM. THE VEHICLE BEHIND HER CLOSED IN ON THE REAR OF OUR SUBARU AND BEGAN HONKING AND FLASHING ITS LIGHTS. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IN OUR CAR CAME ON AND THE CRUISE CONTROL FLASHED. SHE WAS SCARED BY THE MISFUNCTION. THE CAR REVVED UP ABOVE 4000 RPMS WHEN SHE PUT IT INTO PARK. SHE SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND I CHECKED AND FOUND AN ERROR CODE. P2138. THE ACCELERATOR HAS 2 CIRCUITS THAT RELAY THE DESIRED SPEED TO THE CAR'S COMPUTER. WHEN THE CIRCUITS DON'T MATCH THE COMPUTER CUTS THE SPEED OUT OF THE VEHICLE. I THINK THAT THE ENGINEERING BEHIND THIS SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE RE THOUGHT SO THAT THIS DOESN'T OCCUR. I READ OTHER REPORTS ONLINE OF PEOPLE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WHO HAD NEAR ACCIDENTS. *TR

ENGINE
DRIVING ALONG - CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT FLASHES. I IMMEDIATELY LOSE ACCELERATION - NEED TO PULL OVER (THANK GOD I WAS NOT ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WHEN THIS ACCURS). HAVE TO TURN CAR OFF - WAIT A FEW MINUTES AND THEN RESTART. LIGHTS STILL STAY ON BUT ACCELERATION IS NORMAL. I HAVE SEEN MANY DIFFERENT REASON CODES FOR THIS PROBLEM - I AM NOW TAKING TO MY PERSONAL MECHANIC TO HAVE HIM GO OVER IT AND HOPEFULLY FIX THIS. VERY, VERY SCARY SITUATION WHEN IT HAPPENS. DO NOT THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO TAKE MY LIFE IN MY HANDS WHEN I DRIVE THIS VEHICLE!!! ONE WOULD THINK THAT A REPUTABLE COMPANY LIKE SUBARU WOULD STAND BEHIND THIS DANGEROUS FLAW WITH THEIR PRODUCT AND CORRECT THE ISSUE!!! *JS

SUSPENSION, STEERING
WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IN SNOW COVERED, SLUSH COVERED ROADS CONDITIONS VARIED DURING DAY. THE VEHICLE KEPT FEELING LIKE IT WAS WASHING OUT SIDE TO SIDE. I HAD 5 PASSENGERS IN VEHICLE AND THEY ALL COULD FEEL IT AND IT SCARED THEM AND I HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO A DANGEROUSLY SLOW SPEED ON INTERSTATE, THAT WAS CAUSING DISRUPTION TO TRAFFIC FLOW. ON WAY HOME TOOK SECONDARY ROADS SO AS TO NOT DISRUPT TRAFFIC. THIS WAS MY FIRST EXPERIENCE IN TAKING THIS VEHICLE FOR DRIVE IN SNOW CONDITIONS SINCE IT IS NEW TO ME. WE PURPOSELY TOOK SUBARU FOR LEGENDARY HANDLING IN SNOW, IT DOWNRIGHT SHOOK ME UP AND WISHED WE HAD OUR FRONT WHEEL DRIVE PONTIAC VIBE. I INSPECTED VEHICLE, MADE SOME CHANGES TO FRONT SUSPENSION, BALL JOINTS, SWAY BAR LINKS, CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS, ONLY TWO CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS WERE NOTABLY BAD ALL OTHER PARTS CHANGED BECAUSE I WAS THERE. BOTH TIE RODS WERE GOOD. I HAVE SINCE EXPERIENCED SAME ISSUE WHEN ENCOUNTERING PATCHES OF BLACK ICE, SNOW COVERED ROADS AS WELL AS DRIVING ON GRAVEL ROADS. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED A CAR HANDLING LIKE THIS IN MY 35 YEARS OF DRIVING! THIS VEHICLE IS DOWNRIGHT DANGEROUS!!! AND TOO THINK I BOUGHT THIS TO BE MY WINTER VEHICLE. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE COMING TO A STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH A FLASHING CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT. WHEN I STARTED UP THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM THE GAS PEDAL. MY CAR STARTED TO ROLL AND GOT UP TO 10 MPH ( THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 45 MPH). THE RPM GAUGE STAYED AT 2000 RPMS. I PULLED ON TO A SIDE STREET WITH MY FLASHERS ON AND PARKED. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND STARTED IT. STILL NO RESPONSE FROM THE GAS PEDAL. I TURNED THE CAR OFF A SECOND TIME. THIS TIME THE ENGINE DIDN'T START. I TRIED AGAIN AND IT TAKE A LONG TIME (10 SECONDS) BUT IT FINALLY STARTED. NOW THE GAS PEDAL RESPONDED. I DRIVE MY CAR HOME WITHOUT INCIDENT BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STAYED ON AND THE CRUISE STILL FLASHED. I WENT TO AUTO ZONE WHERE THEY SAID THE CODE WAS P2138. THANK GOODNESS THE TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND I WAS ABLE TO FIND A SIDE STREET. *TR UPDATED 12/21/15 *JS

POWER TRAIN, STEERING
BOOTS CRACK AND YOU MUST REPLACE ENTIRE DRIVE SHAFT. LEFT FRONT DRIVE SHAFT WAS JUST REPLACED @100,000 MILES AS THE BOOT CRACKED ON THE OTHER SIDE AS WELL. THINK THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AS DRIVE SHAFT SITS OVER THE TOP OF THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WITH NO SHIELD TO BLOCK THE HEAT. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ENGINE
SLOWING AT INTERSECTION TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN WHEN CHECK-ENGINE-LIGHT CAME ON. CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT STARTED FLASHING (VEHICLE WAS NOT IN CRUISE CONTROL AT THE TIME) ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECAME UNRESPONSIVE (COULD GET NO ACCELERATION OUT OF THE CAR WHEN PRESSING THE PEDAL) AND WAS BARELY ABLE TO GET THROUGH INTERSECTION TO TURN. AFTER A MINUTE OR SO WAS ABLE TO GET ENOUGH POWER TO RUN AT ABOUT 10MPH TOPS WITH HAZARDS ON TO GET A LOCATION WHERE I COULD PULL OVER OUT OF TRAFFIC. CAR WOULD NOT START IMMEDIATELY AFTER (THREE CRANKS WITH NO RESPONSE) AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THOUGH, IT RESTARTED AND SEEMED TO OPERATE NORMALLY, NO PROBLEMS WITH SPEED. DIAGNOSTIC CODE WAS P2138 (THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "A"/"B" VOLTAGE CORRELATION. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I IMMEDIATELY HAD NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. THANKFULLY IT WAS 10:30PM AND THERE WAS A LOWER VOLUME OF TRAFFIC. I COASTED OFF TO THE SHOULDER. TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF, RESTARTED, AND STILL NO THROTTLE RESPONSE. TURNED OFF AGAIN FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES. THIS TIME THERE WAS THROTTLE RESPONSE, BUT CEL WAS STILL ON. THE FOLLOWING DAY, THE CEL LIGHT WAS OFF AND VEHICLE RUNNING FINE. NOW, A WEEK LATER, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO ALL OF A SUDDEN HAVE NO POWER WHILE DRIVING. ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE IS TRAFFIC AROUND. THE FEAR IS BEING RUN INTO FROM BEHIND, OR BEING STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND BECOME PREY FOR THE UNSAVORY. THIS SITUATION NEEDS TO BE REMEDIED BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER, WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WHEN ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. WHEN CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND IGNITION TURNED, THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING AT A HIGH RPM. WHEN PLACED INTO DRIVE VEHICLE WOULD MOVE FORWARD AT 15 MPH, BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE FROM THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON, AS DID THE CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT. DEPRESSING THE CRUISE CONTROL ON/OFF BUTTON DID NOT CHANGE CRUISE CONTROL INDICATOR. TOOK INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CLEARED THE CODE AND RETURNED THE VEHICLE BACK TO ME. THE SAME THING OCCURRED SEVERAL DAYS LATER. WHEN I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TOLD ME THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSEMBLY WAS MALFUNCTIONING AND THEY CHARGED ME $403.88 AS A REPLACEMENT. I SEE NOW ON THE WEB THAT OTHERS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS FAIL AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS INCIDENT. IT IS ALSO VERY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE IT ALL OCCURRED WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF HAVING $2400 OF SERVICE ALREADY ON THE VEHICLE (ENGINE HEAD GASKETS REPLACED, TIMING BELT, TRANS FLUID FLUSH, TIRE ROTATE), AND I HAD TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES IN ORDER TO GET ISSUES DEALT WITH (TWICE WITH THE ACCELERATOR ISSUE, ONCE BECAUSE THEY HAD FAILED TO PROPERLY TIGHTEN THE POWER STEERING BELT). *TR

THEN ALL OF THE LIGHTS WILL GO OUT UNTIL YOU TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VEHICLE LOST POWER AND CONTROL ABRUPTLY WHILE DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. THIS HAPPENED TWICE OVER A TWO WEEK PERIOD. LUCKY TO HAVE AVOIDED REAR END COLLISIONS BOTH TIMES AS I WAS TRAVELING IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE. IF I HAD BEEN IN MIDDLE OR LEFT LANE THERE WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE BEEN SERIOUS MULTIPLE VEHICLE COLLISIONS ON A DENSELY CROWDED I5 WHERE PEOPLE DON'T LEAVE SAFE FOLLOWING DISTANCES. TOOK VEHICLE TO INDEPENDENT SUBARU SHOP AND FOUND ERROR CODE P2138= ACCEL. PEDAL SENSOR CIRCUIT. REPLACED ACCEL PEDAL SENSOR FOR $269. *TR

AIR BAGS
WITHIN WEEK OF PURCHASE OF USED VEHICLE, SUBARU OUTBACK 2006, HAD INTERMITTENT RED AIRBAG TROUBLE LIGHT INDICATOR ON AND INCONSISTENT PASSENGER AIRBAG ON/OFF LIGHT. VEHICLE CAME WITH 6 MONTH WARRANTY FROM INDEPENDENT COMPANY. TOLD BY SMALL INDEPENDENT SHOP (TEMPLE AUTO MART, TEMPLE, PA) OF PURCHASE VEHICLE HAS CODE 26 INDICATING PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE WITH PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATOR ON/OFF LIGHT MOUNTED ON INSIDE ROOF ABOVE THE REAR VIEW MIRROR IS BAD AND THAT THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM. CALLED WARRANTY COMPANY AND TOLD THIS ITEM IS NOT COVERED. WENT TO LOCAL SUBARU DEALER (STEVE MOYER SUBARU, LEESPORT, PA) WHO CONFIRMED CODE 26 PROBLEM AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAG MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND CHARGED $97.52 FOR EVALUATION. DEALER ORDERED PART AND ESTIMATES $299.97 FOR PART, LABOR, AND STATE SALES TAX. TOLD BY DEALER WHEN RED AIRBAG TROUBLE LIGHT INDICATOR IS ON THE ALL AIRBAGS WILL NOT ACTIVATE WHEN NEEDED. BELIEVE THIS SAFETY ITEM COST SHOULD BE SUBARU'S RESPONSIBILITY. I AM REQUESTING A MANUFACTURE RECALL TO COVER ALL COSTS AND INCLUDE ASSURANCE THIS IS PROBLEM DOES NOT OCCUR AGAIN ON THIS VEHICLE. *TR

I NOTICED A GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD ABOVE THE DASHBOARD MAKING IT DIFFICULT/ANNOYING TO SEE. THIS APPEARS TO BE DUE TO THE DASHBOARD MELTING AND LOSING THE "GRAINY" EFFECT WHICH REDUCED THE GLARE. THE DASH IS STICKY AND VERY REFLECTIVE IN THE WINDSHIELD. *TR
