A Message to Our Customers About Air Bag Recalls
Subaru is committed to addressing the concerns of our customers as we stand behind
the safety and quality of our products. We are currently conducting safety recalls related
to right front passenger air bags produced by Takata Corporation for some of the
following vehicles:
2003, 2004, and 2005 model year Legacy
2003, 2004, and 2005 model year Outback
2003, 2004, and 2005 model year Baja
2004 and 2005 model year Impreza (including WRX and STI)
Please note that no Subaru has ever been fitted with Takata­produced driver­side front
airbags, and therefore any recall only applies to passenger­side airbags.
If you believe you may own one of these vehicles, we encourage you to check by using
this VIN lookup function. If your vehicle is affected, we urge you to take immediate
action by scheduling an appointment with your Subaru retailer (dealer) to have the
recall performed. Please avoid seating occupants in the right front passenger seat until
you have the scheduled work performed on your vehicle. If you have any questions,
please contact your Subaru retailer, or our National Customer Contact Center at 1­800­
SUBARU3 (1­800­782­2783).
