What is being recalled

Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain 2019-2022 Crosstrek Hybrid vehicles. The harness terminal that supplies low-voltage power from the converter to the 12-Volt battery may corrode and break, preventing the 12-Volt battery from charging.

Why it is dangerous

A 12-Volt battery that is unable to recharge can cause a loss of drive power, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix (free at any franchised dealer)

Dealers will replace the converter terminal mounting bracket. If corrosion is found on the terminals, the 12-Volt output harness and terminals will also be replaced. Repairs will be performed free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed May 12, 2023. Owners may contact Subaru's customer service at 1-844-373-6614. Subaru's number for this recall is WRD-23.

Recall repairs are always free, regardless of vehicle age or where you bought the car. Quote the campaign number 23V-080 when calling a dealer.
