What This Recall Means

Component

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:BACK UP LIGHTS:SWITCH

What Happened
The backup light switch in your WRX controls the lights that show you when you're reversing, as well as the camera image on your rearview screen. Over time, this switch can corrode and stop working properly.
Risk if Unfixed
If the backup light switch fails, your backup lights won't turn on when you're reversing, and the camera image won't display. This can reduce your visibility and make it harder to stay aware of your surroundings, increasing the risk of a crash.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Subaru dealer will inspect the backup light switch and replace it if it's corroded or faulty, all at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get your recall notice.
