Find out if your vehicle is affected

Vehicle Recall

At Subaru, we put safety first – particularly in the way we build our cars. We ensure at all touchpoints that each model is safe for every person that gets behind the wheel. Our mission is to create Confidence in Motion for every Subaru driver, and this means making some serious safety decisions, and especially when it comes to Subaru recalls.
