Consequence: vibration would occur while driving and, over time, could eventually result in cracking the pipe which would allow oil to leak. if leaking oil contacts components operating at high temperatures, an engine compartment fire could occur.
Action: dealers will inspect for cracking or an oil leak at the oil supply pipe at the cylinder head-side. an additional bracket will be installed to increase rigidity of the pipe and the pipe assembly will be replaced with a modified part. the recall began on october 20, 2008. owners may contact subaru at 1-800-782-2783.

Consequence: if a door were to unlatch, it could open suddenly and without warning, creating a risk that an occupant could be ejected as well as a risk that the driver may become distracted, leading to a crash. this condition may also result in the failure of a door latch to operate, in which case occupants would be unable to open the door to exit the vehicle.
Action: subaru will notify owners and dealers and will repair the vehicles by repositioning and securing the latch cable in both front doors free of charge. the safety recall began on march 19, 2010. owners may contact subaru toll-free at 1-800-subaru3 (1-800-782-2783) monday through friday between 8:30 am and 7:00 pm est and friday between 10:30 am and 5:00 pm est.

Consequence: if the sensor was improperly installed, vehicle handling characteristics during hard braking, sudden turns or other quick maneuvers could cause the vehicle to react in an unexpected manner or result in unstable handling. under extreme conditions, the driver could lose control of the vehicle and a crash could occur.
Action: dealers will inspect the position of the vdc g-sensor. if the sensor is found to be installed correctly, no further action is needed. if the sensor is found to be installed incorrectly (backwards), the sensor will be removed and reinstalled in the correct position. the vdc system will also be reprogrammed to ensure proper operation. the recallbegan on december 19, 2008. owners may contact subaru at 1-800-782-2783.
