| The check engine light illuminated and the cruise control light was flashing upon starting the engine. no other engine symptoms presented themselves. took vehicle to independent repair shop and was informed the front converter is damaged in addition to the front sensor being bad. ended up having them all replaced at substantial cost of approx. $2,000.00. additional research done in a subaru foresters owners forum shows that many owners are experiencing costly and unnecessary repairs due to faulty o2 sensors, not bad catalytic converters. any expenses current owners have had to incur should be reimbursed by subaru to those owners, and a recall should be issued to other owners to prevent unnecessary and costly repairs. | |||

| We purchased our 2007 suburu in march 2007 as a new car from a suburu dealer in california. my daughter has been getting car sick and has had chronic health issues since 9/11/2007. we notice the air inside the car is rancid. please test the inside air quality of this vehicle for fumes, particularly unsafe levels of benzene. i believe this car is making my family sick and don't want to drive it (but have to) or sell it and expose other potential victims to the toxins. i am not sure what component this is, but can describe it as the inside air quality of which occupants are breathing. | |||
