Details

Issue: On certain vehicles, the engine control unit (ECU) may have been programmed incorrectly.

As a result, the internal temperature of the ignition coils may increase.

This could cause a short circuit and a blown fuse.

This may result in a sudden loss of engine power with an inability to restart.

Safety Risk: A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of a crash.

Corrective Actions: Subaru will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to reprogram the ECU and inspect the ignition coils.

If ignition coil damage is found, the ignition coil will be replaced.

On vehicles with ignition coil damage, if a certain trouble code (DTC) is stored, the front exhaust pipe will also be replaced.
