Subaru Legacy 2003 Vehicle Speed Control Review #10148154

SUBARU LEGACY 2003 car safety problem was reported on Oct 14, 2004.SUBARU LEGACY 2003, manufactured by SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . the speedometer/odometer is not accurate. i have checked it with radar, gps and multiple measured miles with a stop watch and have consistently calculated an 8-10% inaccuracy. for example when the car is traveling at what the speedometer reads as 60 mph, the radar,gps and the measured mile all indicate a speed of 54-55 mph. the dealer has never tested my vehicle other than driving it next to another vehicle and comparing the speeds. this is obviously not accurate . i have voiced my complaint numerous time to the dealer and to the factory. the factory authorized the speed sensors to be changed. no cure. the problem remains and worsens as the tires wear and their diameter becomes smaller. if the speedometer is inaccurate the odometer could also be wrong and this would mean that my mileage would not be as great as is indicated and my warranty would expire that much sooner. also my gas mileage would be less and my maintenance intervals would be sooner and i never really know what my true speed is. the factory indicated to me that they would only accept dynonmometer test and that i would have to do the test at my expense. they do not have such a machine and would not help me any further. i hope that you will be able to help with this problem. i have talked to other 2003 subaru legacy outback owners and most of them indicated the same problem after they were made aware of this. i was told by a mechanic that 2003 was the first year the speedometers/odometers were electronic. i don't know if this is true or not, but i'm very sure that myself and other subaru outback owners have inaccurate speedometers. hope you will investigate this. *jb .Mileage was 1 miles.

SUBARU LEGACY 2003 car safety problem was reported on Aug 01, 2005.SUBARU LEGACY 2003, manufactured by SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM . noticed the smell of coolant when exiting the car after driving. i investigated this and found a small coolant leak coming from the back of the left cylinder head. the car is a 2003 subaru legacy gt w/ the 2.5l engine. i have owned the car since new,and had the first few services performed @ the dealer purchased,and even had a trans recall repair performed there as well.the car had around 65000 mi. on it when the leak was first noticed by me not the dealership,even though it is a known issue as told by a service rep when i questioned them on it. it took several visits to get info from them on this because they "didnt want to reveal too much info" to me,the consumer.apparently if subarus coolant additive was added before 100,000 mi. and documented @ a certified service center,subaru would cover the bill for a new cylinder head gasket, if not then it would not be covered. my question is if the additive was so important for the head gasket to survive being run then why wasnt it added at the factory or dealer before sale,and whose job was it to tell the consumers that it needed to be added.the bill is around 1200$ and from my research and observations of vehicles w the same motor (i work in the auto body repair business) this happens to most fairly early in the engines life.i think that this needs to be addressed by subaru the manufacturer,and result in a total recall and repair of this problem.they have already lost me as a customer, and actually the last time i tried contact w them theyre response was "we will remove you from our contact list". *tr.Mileage was 65000 miles.

Subaru Legacy 2003 Reports


I test drove a 2011 Subaru Outback yesterday at night in a very dark area with the headlights on. I could only see out of the bottom third of the windshield. The top two thirds of the windshield looked as if a black curtain had dropped down over i

I notice if I quickly accelerate/go into overdrive - front of car will hum. Do I need to have something checked out?
Thank you!

2004 forester xt, strong gas smell in the cold weather when the heat is on. They won't fix it because they "can't find it" at my dealership. Do I need a new fuel line or is there an easier fix?

Thank you for these, can find a decent review now.

My 1998 subaru forester stutters/hiccups/bucks (whatever you call it) when going uphill, and when accelerating on a straight path, can it be the transmission?

I HAVE A SUBARU FORESTER 2000 TAIL LIGHT/PLATE LIGHT/'FRONT SIGNAL LIGHT STAYS ON.ONCE FUSE IS REMOVED LIGHT GOES OUT.WHAT COULD THE PROBLEM BE?

I own a 2008 Subaru impreza, till last week i was fine, but now it is having some problem i.e it is making whining sound from  steering pump, will i have to replace the steering pump and hoe much will it cost.

Standard on all Impreza models are anti lock disc brakes, stability control, front seat side airbags, side curtain airbags and active front head restraints to help mitigate crash-induced whiplash

2006 Subaru outback died. Will not tke a boost. With battery cable connected there is an error code in the odometer. Does anybody know what this can be?

2007 Forester bangs into gear-been doing this mainly in cold weather but now all the time. Dealer always says not problem-it has to "warm up" and doesnt want ot deal with it.

My 2002 Impreza Outback Sport's check engine light comes on when I'm going downhill, not all the time.  Also (not all the time), if I don't downshift when coming to a stop, the car dies, not stalls, dies.  It starts right back up.  The engine l

i just wrecked my 04 wrx front impact and no air bag and seat belt locked after the impact...how do i contact some one to have this investigated?
