• Recall 2020001 [Canada]: Airbag
  Issue: this recall is for certain vehicles that had an airbag inflator replaced as a part of an earlier recall campaign. This recall provides a final repair. Long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger-front airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function. Safety risk: if the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury. Corrective actions: owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the passenger-front airbag inflator. The passenger-front airbag module or inflator will be replaced as necessary. Note: the canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected.

• Recall 2019191 [Canada]: Electrical
  Issue: a problem with certain replacement ignition switches may allow the key turn out of the “on” position while driving. This could cause the engine to turn off suddenly. It could also cause the airbag system not to work properly in a crash. Note: this is a voluntary service campaign that is not being conducted under the requirements of the motor vehicle safety act. This problem only affects certain parts used for replacement of original parts. Safety risk: a sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash. An airbag system that does not work properly in a crash could cause an increased risk of injuries. Corrective actions: the company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the ignition switch, and replace it as necessary.

This may also cause problems with the following: anti-lock brake system (abs), vehicle dynamics control (vdc), and/or eyesight system. Safety risk: if the brake lights do not work, a following driver may not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking, increasing the risk of crash. Corrective actions: the company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to have the brake lamp switch replaced.

  FCC ID: CWTWB1U819

The problem: like over 50% of adult americans, i am female. I am 5' 3.5" tall (average for n. America, folks!) and weigh 109 lbs. I am also 66 years old and it's likely that despite my very active lifestyle (i'm a backpacker etc.), my bones are more brittle than a 25-y.O. Man's. Your agency has failed in its duty to ensure the safety of all americans. Not just men and fat women. In order to reach the accelerator and see over the dashboard, i.E. In order to drive these vehicles which have passed your safety requirements, i sit in the death zone of the driver airbags and steering wheel column in all three vehicles i own: this 2009 impreza, my 2000 outback station wagon, and my 2012 ford f350 winnebago rv. Please don't tell me that i should buy one of the very few vehicles that might fit me better. I live on a mountainside in alaska and need winter traction and handling. Why should my vehicle choices be narrowed because you have failed to recognizew that i exist? As a retired federal scientist and policy wonk with a law degree, i am appalled at your agency's callousness towards me and other average height drivers. How long will it take my government, staffed by people whose salaries i pay, to recognize that the male body is not the default for all humans? I am letting my senator, lisa murkowshi, know that it's well past time for the nhtsa to protect me as well as it protects my husband.

Several hours after having work performed on my car, i was turning left from one road to another, both with speed limits around 40 mph. While turning left and simultaneously shifting from 4th to 2nd gear. While traveling about 15 mph in the middle of the turn, the steering wheel locked and i became aware that the car had stalled. I had to pull the emergency brake to stop the car and skidded off the road, which caused the car behind me to brake suddenly in the middle of an intersection. I was able to restart the car immediately. Immediately after the incident, i had the car thoroughly inspected and no mechanical issues were found. The reason suspected for this was due to a design flaw in the throttle position sensor, which in certain subarus can reset after the car's battery has been disconnected (to perform service on the car, in this case). When the sensor is reset, the car will tend to stall when the rpms drop, either when coming to a stop light or downshifting in manual transmission cars. This is a known issue reported by many owners and mechanics. I was advised by a subaru dealer that the subaru relearn idle procedure needs to be performed to restore proper idle performance after the battery has been disconnected. I have experienced my car stalling several times over the years due to this issue, but never before while the car was in motion. It has been inspected multiple times and no mechanical issues related to this issue have been found. I believe this is extremely dangerous, in particular in cases where the car can stall while in motion and especially while turning, as it can easily cause a serious accident. Further, this is not a highly predictable issue and it's not always clear to me as the owner of the car when the relearn idle procedure needs to be performed.

09 wrx hatch, when the clutch is depressed it will make a creaking noise. Upon further inspection, the firewall flexes a lot while the clutch is pressed in. It is getting louder and is starting to affect the brake pedal by moving it everytime the clutch is depressed.

09 wrx hatch, the traction control and hill assist lights will illuminate sporadically. After the vehicle is turned off and then back on , everything works fine. I haven't found any variables that are consistent. It doesn't matter if it's rain or shine, hot or cold, both lights will just randomly come on.
