Subaru Forester: Brake system warning light (red) / Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD) system warning
If the warning light remains on even though
the parking brake is released, the brake
fluid level may be low or there could be a
problem with the EBD system. Park the
vehicle in a safe place immediately and
contact a SUBARU dealer.
The brake system warning light
will
illuminate when the vacuum pressure
sensor is malfunctioning or brake booster
pressure is decreasing.
If the brake warning light continues to
illuminate for several minutes after starting
the engine, there may be a malfunction in
the vacuum system...
Other information:
Remove loose dirt, dust or debris with a
vacuum cleaner. If the dirt is caked on the
fabric or hard to remove with a vacuum
cleaner, use a soft brush then vacuum it.
Wipe the fabric surface with a tightly wrung
cloth and dry the seat fabric thoroughly...
If you believe that your vehicle has a
defect which could cause a crash or
could cause injury or death, you
should immediately inform the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(NHTSA) in addition to
notifying Subaru of America, Inc.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints,
it may open an investigation,
and if it finds that a safety
defect exists in a group of vehicles,
it may order a recall and remedy
campaign...
