S. and other markets. The issue centers on a potential problem with the wheel hub bolts, which could loosen over time and cause the wheel to detach. While no accidents or injuries have been reported in connection with this defect, Subaru is urging owners to bring their vehicles in for inspection and repair as a precautionary measure.

The recall covers a specific production window of Solterra models, which is Subaru's first fully electric vehicle developed in partnership with Toyota. Owners will receive official notification by mail, but if you drive a Solterra and haven't heard from the dealer yet, it's worth checking your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on Subaru's recall website.
