The Subaru driveshaft recall is a safety recall issued by Subaru of America, Inc. for certain 2023 Outback, Legacy, Ascent, and Impreza vehicles. The recall is due to a potential issue with the center support bolts for the driveshaft. These bolts may loosen, which could result in the disconnection of the front end of the driveshaft. This could increase the risk of a crash.
The recall affects vehicles manufactured within specific date ranges. For example, the affected Outback models were manufactured between March 21, 2023, and March 31, 2023. Legacy models were made from March 21, 2023, to March 30, 2023. Ascent models were built between March 20, 2023, and March 29, 2023. Impreza hatchback models were made from March 22, 2023, to March 31, 2023. The recall also impacts a specific number of Impreza sedan units built from March 22, 2023, to March 27, 2023.
Subaru has stated that owners of affected vehicles may notice irregular sounds and/or vibrations from the driveshaft area while driving. Subaru has not received any reports of accidents or injuries related to this issue. However, to address the problem, Subaru dealers will clean the bolt mounting surfaces and install new bolts as necessary.
If you own one of the affected vehicles, it is recommended to contact Subaru’s customer service at 844-373-6614 for further assistance.
