| SUBJECT: | Replacement Ignition Switch Recall |
INTRODUCTION:
Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain vehicles in the ranges listed below to inspect and potentially replace the ignition switch. A total of 511 U.S. vehicles will be affected by this recall.
AFFECTED VEHICLES:
Coverage for this recall must be confirmed by using the Vehicle Coverage Inquiry function on Subarunet.com.
This information is now available.
| Model Years | Carline | Vehicle Count |
|---|---|---|
| 2009-2013 | Forester | 266 |
| 2009-2011 | Impreza | 58 |
| 2008-2014 | WRX | 22 |
| 2005-2014 | Legacy | 47 |
| 2005-2014 | Outback | 108 |
| 2006-2008 | Tribeca | 10 |
DESCRIPTION OF THE DEFECT AND SAFETY RISK:
In some of the potentially affected vehicles, a previously-installed Genuine Subaru replacement ignition switch may contain a ball spring susceptible to long-term wear and possible fatigue breakage.
If the ball spring inside the ignition switch breaks, the retention force of the ignition switch would be reduced. If this occurs and heavier items are attached to the ignition key while the vehicle is driven over rough surfaces, the weight may exceed the retention force of the broken ball spring and pull the ignition switch from the “ON” position to the “ACC” position.
If the ignition switch is pulled from the “ON” position to the “ACC” position the engine would stop running while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a crash. If a crash occurs under this condition, the airbag system may not react as designed, increasing the risk of injury.
DESCRIPTION OF THE REMEDY:
Subaru dealers will inspect the lot number of the ignition switch and if it is within the affected range, replace it with a remedied one.
RETAILER RESPONSIBILITY:
Any vehicles listed in any recall/campaign that are in retailer stock must be:
- Immediately identified.
- Tagged or otherwise marked to prevent their delivery or use prior to repair.
- Repaired in accordance with the repair procedures outlined in the Product Campaign Bulletin.
Retailers are to promptly perform the applicable service procedures to correct all potentially affected vehicles in their inventory (used, demo & SSLP). Additionally, whenever a vehicle subject to this recall is taken into retailer inventory necessary steps should be taken to ensure the recall correction has been made before selling or releasing the vehicle.
The vehicles included in this recall were identified based on retail sales records of specific Genuine Subaru replacement ignition switches sold between February 2017 and October 2018, containing specific manufacturing lot numbers. A very small quantity of the sales could not be traced to a specific VIN. As a result, the estimated number of unidentified potentially defective Genuine Subaru replacement ignition switches is less than 10.
If a customer who owns a similar vehicle not identified under this recall either (1) has knowledge that they had a Genuine Subaru replacement ignition switch installed in their vehicle after February 21, 2017, or (2) purchased the vehicle as used after February 21, 2017 and is unaware of the service history of the vehicle, they may qualify to have the ignition switch lot number checked upon request.
To qualify, the vehicle must have a mechanical key ignition and be included in the following: 20052014MY Legacy/Outback, 2006-2014MY Tribeca, 2008-2011MY Impreza, 2008-2014MY Impreza WRX/WRX, or 2009-2013MY Forester applicable to one of the two situations stated above. If a customer makes such a request, fully document the situation and contact the Subaru Claims Helpline at 1-866-782-2782 for further instruction.
RETAILER AFFECTED VIN LISTS:
Each Subaru retailer will receive an affected VIN list from their Zone Office. Vehicles will be assigned to retailers as follows:
- Original vehicle owners are assigned to the original selling retailer when their current address is within a 100-mile radius of that retailer.
- If the original selling retailer is inactive, the VIN has been assigned to the nearest active retailer.
- For any new owners or when original owners live more than 100 miles from the original selling retailer, the VIN has been assigned to the nearest active retailer.
IMPORTANT: Retailer affected VIN lists include information for vehicles affected by this recall. This information will enable retailers to follow up with owners of affected vehicles. The lists contain owners’ names and phone numbers obtained from State Motor Vehicle Registration Records. The use of such motor vehicle registration data for any other purpose is unlawful. Accordingly, retailers are required to limit the use of these lists for the sole purpose of completing this recall.
OWNER NOTIFICATION:
Subaru is in the process of acquiring current registration data and will notify affected vehicle owners by first class mail in May. Owners with a valid email address on file will also be notified by email.
Retailers will be advised when the notification is scheduled.

| 2005-2006MY Legacy / Outback and Tribeca: P.N. 83131AG000 | 2007-2014MY Legacy / Outback, Forester Impreza / WRX / STI P.N. 83131KG000 |
REMINDER: Always order the most up-to-date replacement parts based on the specific VIN being repaired.
SERVICE PROCEDURE / INFORMATION:
This procedure involves inspection of the lot number located on the face of the ignition switch. On some of the affected vehicles, a mechanical key ignition switch installed as a service spare part may contain a ball spring which could be susceptible to long-term wear and possible fatigue breakage. If the ball spring breaks, the retention force of the ignition switch is reduced. If heavier items are attached to the ignition key and the vehicle is driven over rough surfaces, the weight of the items may exceed the retention force of the broken ball spring and pull the ignition switch from the “ON” position to the “ACC” position. If this occurs the engine may unexpectedly stop running.
REMINDER: Customer satisfaction and retention starts with performing quality repairs.
The service procedures for Ignition Switch replacement remain unchanged. Always refer to the applicable Service Manual and review the full requirements of the repair being performed. The Service Manual procedures contain information critical to performing an effective repair the first time and every time.

OWNER NOTIFICATION LETTER
| URGENT IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL This notice applies to the VIN below |
Subaru Safety Recall WUF-91
NHTSA Recall ID 19V-297
May 2019
Dear Subaru Owner:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC. has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2009-2013 model year Forester vehicles, 2008-2011 model year Impreza vehicles, 2008-2014 model year WRX vehicles, 2005-2014 model year Legacy vehicles, 2005-2014 model year Outback vehicles, and 2006-2008 model year Tribeca vehicles.
You received this notice because our records indicate that you currently own one of these vehicles.
REASON FOR THIS SAFETY RECALL
On certain vehicles included in this safety recall, the ignition switch was previously replaced with one that may contain a defective ball spring susceptible to long-term wear and possible fatigue breakage. If that ball spring breaks, the retention force of the ignition switch would be reduced. If this occurs, the weight on the key ring and certain road conditions could cause the ignition switch to move out of the “ON” position to the accessory “ACC” position.
If the ignition switch is pulled from the “ON” position to the “ACC” position while the vehicle is in motion, the engine may stop running unexpectedly, increasing the risk of a crash. If a crash occurs under this condition, the airbags may not deploy, increasing the risk of injury.
WHAT SUBARU WILL DO
Subaru will inspect and, if necessary, replace the ignition switch in your vehicle with a remedied one at no cost to you.
WHAT YOU SHOULD DO
You should immediately contact any authorized Subaru retailer (dealer) for an appointment to have the ignition switch in your vehicle inspected and, if necessary, replaced for free.
Until this recall repair has been performed, please remove all items from your key ring, leaving only the vehicle key.
To minimize your inconvenience while the repair is being performed, please ask your retailer for alternative transportation options.
HOW LONG WILL THE REPAIR TAKE?
The actual time to inspect and, if necessary, replace the ignition switch in your vehicle is approximately 36 minutes. However, your retailer can provide you with a better estimate of the overall time for this service visit, as it may be necessary to make your vehicle available for a longer period of time.
OWNER INFORMATION
Government regulations require that recall notifications be sent to the last known owner of record. That information is based primarily on state registration and title data. If you are a lessor of this vehicle, federal regulations require you to forward this notice to your lessee within ten days.
If you have moved or sold your vehicle, please update this information online at www.subaru.com, select ‘Customer Support,’ then select ‘Address Update’ or ‘Ownership Update’ from the drop-down menu.
IF YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY PAID FOR A REPAIR
If you have already paid for repairs associated with this condition, you may be eligible for reimbursement. Reimbursement consideration will be based on the amount an authorized Subaru retailer in your area would charge for the same repair.
Please send the original service repair order, which has the name of the repair facility, date of repair, mileage at the time of repair, complete 17-digit vehicle identification number (VIN), and your name, with correct mailing address and telephone number to the address listed below.

Coverage for this recall must be confirmed by using the Vehicle Coverage Inquiry function on subarunet.com. This information is currently available.
Description of the Defect and Safety Risk
In some of the potentially affected vehicles, a previously-installed replacement ignition switch may contain a ball spring susceptible to long-term wear and possible fatigue breakage.
If the ball spring inside the ignition switch breaks, the retention force of the ignition switch would be reduced. If this occurs and heavier items are attached to the ignition key while the vehicle is driven over rough surfaces, the weight may exceed the retention force of the broken ball spring and pull the ignition switch from the “ON” position to the “ACC” position.
If the ignition switch is pulled from the “ON” position to the “ACC” position the engine would stop running while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a crash. If a crash occurs under this condition, the airbag system may not react as designed, increasing the risk of injury.
Description of the Remedy
Subaru dealers will inspect the lot number of the ignition switch and if it is within the affected range, replace it with a remedied one.
Retailer Responsibility
Any vehicles listed in any recall/campaign that are in retailer stock must be:
▪ Immediately identified.
▪ Tagged or otherwise marked to prevent their delivery or use prior to repair.
▪ Repaired in accordance with the repair procedures outlined in the Product Campaign Bulletin.
Retailers are to promptly perform the applicable service procedures to correct all affected vehicles in their inventory (used, demo & SSLP). Additionally, whenever a vehicle subject to this recall is taken into retailer inventory necessary steps should be taken to ensure the recall correction has been made before selling or releasing the vehicle.
Each Subaru retailer will receive an affected VIN list from their Zone Office prior to owner notification. Affected vehicles will be assigned to retailers as follows:
• Original vehicle owners will be assigned to the original selling retailer when their current address is within a 100-mile radius of that retailer.
• If the original selling retailer is inactive, the VIN will be assigned to the nearest active retailer.
• For any new owners or when original owners live more than 100 miles from the original selling retailer, the VIN will be assigned to the nearest active retailer.
IMPORTANT: Retailer affected VIN lists include information for vehicles affected by this recall. This information will enable retailers to follow up with owners of affected vehicles. The lists contain owners’ names and phone numbers obtained from State Motor Vehicle Registration Records. The use of such motor vehicle registration data for any other purpose is unlawful. Accordingly, retailers are required to limit the use of these lists for the sole purpose of completing this recall.
