Is a flashing check engine light worse than a solid check engine light?
A technician needs to diagnose the concern at the absolute earliest convenience to prevent damage to your car. A flashing Check Engine Light is serious business.

When was the first time my Tribeca had a problem?
I have a 2006 Tribeca – bought new – and have had this issue a few times. The first time it happened was about 3 years ago (past warranty time), I luckily had a good mechanic who had worked at a Subaru dealer, so when I told him the problem, he said it’s often one of Subaru’s glitches and to unhook the battery for about 20-30 min so it could reset.
