Subaru Recalls Over 500,000 Vehicles - Here’s What to Do

Subaru has issued a recall covering more than half a million vehicles across multiple models due to a potential engine control issue. The recall affects certain 2020-2022 model year Outback, Legacy, Ascent, and Impreza vehicles, as well as the 2020-2021 Forester. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), a software glitch in the engine control module could cause the engine to stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash.

The recall campaign number is 24V-934.

Owners can check if their vehicle is included by visiting the NHTSA website or Subaru’s recall portal with their VIN. The fix is straightforward: authorized dealers will update the engine control module software at no cost. Subaru began notifying owners in late November, and the repair takes less than an hour.
