Subarunet Announcement To: All Subaru Dealers From: Subaru of America, Inc. Date: May 30, 2013 Update: Subaru Recall Campaign WQG43: Brake Line Corrosion On March 27, 2013, Subaru of America, Inc. announced that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists on the following affected vehicles. These vehicles may have been manufactured with brake lines that could, over time, corrode in the area of the four‐way joint connector if exposed to salt. Affected Vehicles Certain 2005‐2009 model year Subaru Legacy/Outback vehicles currently or formerly registered in at least one of the following “salt‐belt” states or Washington D.C. Connecticut Delaware District of Columbia Illinois Indiana Iowa Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota Missouri New Hampshire New Jersey New York Ohio Pennsylvania Rhode Island Vermont West Virginia Wisconsin Campaign Bulletin The WQG‐43 campaign bulletin is posted on the Techinfo.Subaru.com website under “What’s New”. Please refer to the bulletin for repair instructions and additional information including claim submission instructions. Repair Parts During the week of June 3rd, dealers located in salt‐belt states will automatically be sent a quantity of two 11‐ounce aerosol cans of rust‐proofing material. Deliveries should be completed by the end of the week. Each can contains enough material to treat 33 vehicles. It will be necessary for dealers located outside of affected “salt‐belt” states to order rust‐proofing material as needed. Additional quantities of the rust‐proofing material are available through the “Genuine Subaru Automotive Chemical” program. In order to maintain an adequate part supply, SOA requests that Dealers only order quantities necessary to satisfy anticipated demand. Part Number Description SOA868V9360 Nox‐Rust® 712AM Aerosol Can Owner Notification Owner notification letters will begin mailing today, May 30, 2013. In addition to notification by mail, vehicle owners with a valid email address and MySubaru subscribers will be notified electronically on May 31, 2013. Continued… Since owner notification will occur just prior to dealers receiving the needed rust‐proofing material, some customers may contact dealers to schedule appointments before it arrives. In these cases, dealers are requested to schedule customer service appointments for dates after the material is available. A copy of the owner notification letters is included at the end of the WQG‐43 campaign bulletin.
