Description

Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain 2021 Impreza vehicles. The left-front lower control arm weld may fail, allowing the control arm to separate from the crossmember. A separated control arm may cause the tire to contact the wheel well, resulting in a loss of control and increasing the risk of a crash.
