Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CRUISE CONTROL STARTED FLASHING, WITH NO RESPONSE FROM THE GAS PEDAL, ONLY A HIGH IDLE. HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CLEARED AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. OUT OF TOWN FOR THE SECOND OCCURRENCE SAME THING HAPPENED, NOW SUBARU HAS THE CAR AND I WAS TOLD THE ENGINE HARNESS HAS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $1883.36. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. *TR
