I don't think of Subarus as being low-maintenance. It's more a case of easy- (or at least easier-) maintenance than other makes. Just because other makes don't recommend a lot of maintenance, that doesn't mean that parts won't fail. Yes Subarus can live for a long time, but they do require maintenance, but this is made easier for the do-it-yourselfers.

You were correct in trying that switch on the steering column; that's what it is meant to do (turn off the parking lights). The switch could be faulty. Try prying the switch up and out; then disconnect the switch from its wiring to see if that solves the problem. Otherwise, there could be a problem with the wiring deeper down in a wiring harness.

Long shot: In case the valves are sticking, try an oil+filter change.
