    Good Day. My wife recently acquired a Subaru Forester 2015 base model. We recently experienced recurrent lighting up of the ABS, Hill Start Assist and Traction Control orange-colored indicator lights all at the same time on the dashboard. All 3 indicators will light up at the same time intermittently while driving. Upon stopping the car, turning the ignition off and starting the car again the 3 lights will go off. We bought the car to Subaru for check-up. They connected their diagnostic OBD computer which indicates no malfunctions. The week after discharge from dealer the 3 indicators would again light up intermittently. Based on your experiences what is the cause of this?

    Thank you very much.

    is the condition triggered by road shock or after negotiating a turn?
    have the subaru tech check on the yaw rate sensor.

    This is a common software issue amongst foresters. Casa can fix for 1.5k.

    I do notice that my Fozzie easily notices road instances where it will lose a bit of traction and then traction control takes over. This is quite common when I am a bit aggressive trying to speed up while traversing a speed bump.
