I’m so sorry that your cruise control isn’t working and the light is flashing. While unfortunate, this sort of thing isn’t uncommon in Subarus
. The reason why the cruise control light is flashing in your Subaru Forester
is probably that the cruise control has been automatically disabled. This will most often happen when one of the electrical systems connected to the cruise control fails. Basically, if there is a failure anywhere in one of your Subaru Forester’s systems that could adversely affect the safe operation of the cruise control feature, the cruise control will be disabled. You’ll notice that the check engine and the dynamic stability control lights have also come on.
Unfortunately, the only way to know for certain is to perform a diagnostic test. If you don’t have an OBDII (and you don’t want to buy one), you can always have a mechanic check the code. You’ll need to visit one anyway to have whatever the underlying issue is resolved.
Once you’ve got your Subaru back in tip-top shape, it’s time to review your car insurance
. Periodically reviewing your car insurance coverage is the best way to ensure that your Subaru is properly protected–and that you’re not overpaying for your coverage. The good news is that reviewing your car insurance coverage is fast and easy! All you have to do is download the Jerry
