Please help...while driving I noted 3 of the lights came on my 2007 Subaru Tribeca: 1. CEL, VDC OFF and flashing cruise control ON.
I did not experience difference in driving, but have to drive home about 80 miles, so I am concerned. Lights did not go off after stopping, turning off the engine and re-starting the car.
anyone???
I was in a lot of snow for a week and came back to have three lights randomly turn on the next day - Flashing cruise control, traction control and check engine. Just left it with the mechanic to do a computer check and am bringing it to the dealer this weekend (just bought it a month ago). I heard this happens if there's a driver side door leak?
SOURCE: Same Problem
this is accurate,because all computers communicate with eachother,all inputs to engine computer share with abs,trans computer signaling a malfunction
SOURCE: check engine light, cruis control light flashes,
I HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM BACK IN AUGUST. GO GET YOU TIMING CHECKED I DID NOT AND I BLEW MY ENGINE. SUBARU TOLD ME I "OIL STARVED" THE ENGINE AND DID NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY FROM WHAT I HAVE SEEN ON THE WEB THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THEN ONE OCCASION. LONG STORY SHORT I GOT THE CHICKEN AND EGG STORY WHAT HAPPENED FIRST TIMING WHEEL BREAKING AND CLOGGING THE OIL OR OIL NOT RUNNING PROPER AND THE TIMING WHEEL BREAKING. NOW I HAVE A CAR SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY WAITING FOR A TEN THOUSAND YES TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR ENGINE. AND THREE MORE YEARS OF PAYMENTS
SOURCE: what to do when My 2006 b9 Tribeca has 3 lights
Go get you timing checked I had the same problem in August and my timing wheel broke oil starved the engine and it blew. These are the only lights that came on nothing else. I am now stuck paying $10,000 for a new engine Subaru refused to honor the warranty I only had 34,000 miles on it at the time.

2008 wrx near 5000 miles, got all the same lights while doing 65-70 on the freeway; engine performance seemed to decrease slightly, but that might have just been in my head since once the dash lit up like a christmas tree i drove it quite softly.
