Hello - after only having my forester for 5 months and with 7000 miles on it, I got the 'Check engine - traction control- blinking cruse' light trifecta and my Suby is currently at the dealer.
 
The dealer just called and said that it is regestering that cylinders 3 and 4 had misfires but that was it….that can’t get it to happen again even though it’s in the history.
 
For anyone else that had this issue, how did your dealer fix it?

My 98 was much older tech, but replacing an ignition coil addressed a similar misfire.

It's a common issue apparently..there is no fix as of yet.
