Subaru Recalls Foresters due to Defective Airbags

Subaru is recalling over 350,000 Foresters due to defective airbags.

The recall affects Subaru Foresters from 2015-2018 with heated seats. The problem is due to an electrical connection in the front passenger seat. According to the documents, an electrical connection within the seats could loosen over time and cause a decrease in contact pressure. If this happens, the occupant detection system may not function properly and could deactivate the passenger airbag.

This poses a serious risk for occupants in the event of a crash.

Owners will begin being notified by Subaru starting November 29, 2019 when replacement parts are available.

The manufacturer will inspect owner’s systems and replace them free of charge.
