. The steering wheel is operated frequently and turned sharply while the vehicle is maneuvered at extremely low speeds , such as while frequently turning the steering wheel during parallel parking .
. The steering wheel remains in the fully turned position for a long period of time .
At this time , there will be more resistance when steering . However , this is not a malfunction . Normal steering force will be restored after the steering wheel is not operated for a while and the power steering control system has an opportunity to cool down . However , if the power steering is operated in a non-standard way which causes power assist limitation to occur too frequently , that may result in a malfunction of the power steering control system .

! Vehicle Dynamics Control warning light s03ae1401
CAUTION
The Vehicle Dynamics Control system provides its ABS control through the electrical circuit of the ABS . Accordingly , if the ABS is inoperative , the Vehicle Dynamics Control system becomes unable to provide ABS control . As a result , the Vehicle Dynamics Control system becomes inoperative , causing the warning light to illuminate . Although both the Vehicle Dynamics Control and ABS are inoperative in this case , the ordinary functions of the brake system are still available . You will be safe while driving in this condition , but drive carefully and have your vehicle checked at a SUBARU dealer as soon as possible .

NOTE
. If the electrical circuit of the Vehicle Dynamics Control system itself malfunctions , the warning light only illuminates . At this time , the ABS ( Anti-lock Brake System ) remains fully operational .
. The warning light illuminates when the electronic control system of the ABS / Vehicle Dynamics Control system malfunctions .
. The Vehicle Dynamics Control warning light , ABS warning light , and brake system warning light illuminate simultaneously if the EBD system malfunctions . For further details of the EBD system malfunction warning , refer to “ Electronic Brake Force Distribution ( EBD ) system warning ” FP166 .
The Vehicle Dynamics Control system is probably inoperative under any of the following conditions . Have your vehicle checked at a SUBARU dealer immediately .
