What This Recall Means

Component

PARKING BRAKE

What Happened
The electronic parking brake in your Legacy or Outback is a safety feature that helps hold your vehicle in place when you park. In certain 2010-2014 models with a manual transmission, this system might not work as it should, allowing your vehicle to roll away.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, you could get into an accident because your vehicle might roll away and you could lose control. This is a serious safety concern that could put you and others at risk.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Subaru will replace the faulty electronic parking brake actuator assembly at no cost to you. You'll get a notification, and you should schedule the repair as soon as possible to ensure your safety on the road.
