A Message to Our Valued Owners:
We would like to thank you for your selection of a Subaru vehicle. We take
pride in our products and are committed to your continued satisfaction.
Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is initiating a new safety recall for certain 2023 model year Solterra vehicles.
The hub bolts that attach the wheels to your vehicle may have been under-torqued prior to delivery to the Subaru dealership where you purchased or leased your vehicle. Under-torqued hub bolts could loosen to the point where the wheels could detach.
If a wheel detaches from a vehicle while driving, it could result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Please contact your Subaru retailer (dealer) for an appointment to have this repair performed at no cost to you.
