Manufacture Dates:

04/10/2015 - 06/05/2015

Potential Units Affected:

18187

Defect Description:

Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain model year 2015-2016 WRX vehicles manufactured April 10, 2015, to October 21, 2015, and Forester 2.0XT vehicles manufactured April 10, 2015, to October 20, 2015. The turbocharger air intake duct may crack and possibly result in an engine stall.

Action to take:

Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the turbocharger air intake duct, and replace it as necessary, free of charge, depending on the lot number found on the duct. The recall began April 2016. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-800-782-2783. Subaru's number for this recall is WTA-62.

2015 SUBARU FORESTER

NHTSA Campaign ID:

19V149000

Component:

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BRAKE LIGHTS:SWITCH

Manufacturer:

Subaru of America, Inc.

Manufacture Dates:

12/18/2012 - 04/28/2016

Potential Units Affected:

Brake lights that do not illuminate properly will not alert other drivers that the vehicle is slowing or stopping, increasing the risk of crash.

Action to take:

Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will replace the brake light switch, free of charge. The recall began April 15, 2019. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-844-373-6614. Subaru's number for this recall is WUE-90.
