I BOUGHT MY SUBARU IN FEBRUARY OF 2013 WITH APPROX 75000 MILES ON THE ODO. I BELIEVE THE DEFECT HAD ALREADY BEEN THERE WHEN I BOUGHT IT AND I HADN'T NOTICED IT UNTIL IT GOT SLIGHTLY WORSE. THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE CLUTCH FLEXES WHEN I PRESS EITHER OF THEM. PRESSING THE CLUTCH WILL MOVE THE BRAKE PEDAL IN THE DOWN POSITION APPROX. 1/3 OF AN INCH SAME WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE WELDS CONNECTING THE PEDAL BRACKET TO THE FIREWALL ARE NOT WELDED CORRECTLY. IT NEEDS TO BE REINFORCED BY SOMETHING ELSE TO ASSURE ME THAT THE CLUTCH AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WILL NOT MOVE WHILST DRIVING. IT SCARES ME TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE TO AND FROM WORK BECAUSE OF THE POSSIBILITY THAT THESE WELDS WILL BREAK. WHICH WILL MAKE ME UNABLE TO PRESS EITHER PEDAL AND I COULD LOSE MY ABILITY TO CLUTCH AND BRAKE. WHICH COULD RESULT IN ME GOING 70MPH POSSIBLY (INTERSTATE SPEEDS) INTO ANOTHER CAR OR OBSTACLE. OR SIMPLY REAR ENDING SOMEONE IN TRAFFIC OR ROLLING BACK INTO THEM BEING UNABLE TO BRAKE. IF THIS BRACKET BREAKS OFF OF THE BULKHEAD/FIREWALL I WILL HAVE NO BRAKES OR CLUTCH THEN MY CAR BECOMES A PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE. SOMEONE OR PEOPLE COULD GET HURT IF THIS HAPPENS AND IT COULD. *TR

2009 STOCK WRX WITH 66K MILES ON IT, BUT PROBLEM (SQUEAK) STARTED AT ABOUT 38K MILES. I ONLY DRIVE SURFACE STREETS AND HAVE NEVER TRACKED/RACED/ETC MY WRX. MY CLUTCH ASSEMBLY SQUEAKS AND SHIFTS WHENEVER I DEPRESS/RELEASE THE CLUTCH PEDAL, REGARDLESS OF VEHICLE SPEED OR PEDAL SPEED. I'VE LUBRICATED THE VARIOUS HINGES WITH STANDARD LITHIUM GREASE WHICH REMOVED A VERY SMALL PORTION OF THE NOISE, BUT THE SQUEAK IS STILL PROMINENT. BRAKE PEDAL MOVES TO THE LEFT AS I DEPRESS THE CLUTCH PEDAL MORE. CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER FLEXES IN AND OUT ON THE FIREWALL WHENEVER I DEPRESS/RELEASE THE CLUTCH PEDAL- THIS MIGHT ALSO LEAD TO EARLY FAILURE OF THE MASTER CYLINDER DUE TO MISALIGNMENT OF THE PISTON FROM THE SUPPORTING STRUCTURE FLEXING (NOT TO MENTION THE SUPPORTING STRUCTURE FLEXING WAY TOO MUCH FOR STANDARD OPERATION). I'M CONCERNED THAT MY PEDAL ASSEMBLY'S SUPPORTING STRUCTURE WILL FAIL, LEAVING THE CLUTCH PEDAL AND POSSIBLY THE BRAKE PEDAL (IF IT'S ALSO SUPPORTED BY IT WHICH IT SEEMS IT IS) USELESS WHILE DRIVING: AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS AND LIFE-THREATENING SITUATION. *TR

EVERY TIME I PUT THE CLUTCH IN I HEARD A LOUD CREAK OR SQUEAK. IT GOT WORSE OVER THE NEXT MONTHS. YESTERDAY, I REALIZED THAT THE FIREWALL HAD CRACKED WHERE THE CLUTCH AND BRAKE PEDAL MOUNT. THE METAL FLEXES WHEN CLUTCHING OR BRAKING. IF I USE THE CLUTCH I CAN SEE THE BRAKE PEDAL MOVE ABOUT HALF AN INCH BACK. I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS ALLOWS THE CLUTCH TO FULLY DEPRESS AND I THINK THAT IF I HAVE TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP THE CRACK COULD GET WORSE AND TEAR NOT ALLOWING THE CAR TO STOP AT ALL. *TR

THE CLUTCH PEDAL ON MY 2009 WRX MAKES A LOUD CREAKING NOISE EVERY TIME IT'S DEPRESSED. WHEN I INVESTIGATED THE NOISE, I NOTICED THAT THE ENTIRE CLUTCH PEDAL BRACKET ASSEMBLY (ATTACHED TO THE FORWARD FIREWALL) SHIFTS APPROX 1/4 INCH EVERY TIME THE CLUTCH PEDAL IS DEPRESSED. I FOUND THAT THE THREE SPOT WELDS SECURING THE CLUTCH PEDAL BRACKET TO THE FORWARD FIREWALL WERE BROKEN. FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE FIREWALL, JUST UNDER THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS, I SAW THE SPOT WELDS PULLING AWAY FROM THE FIREWALL EVERY TIME THE CLUTCH PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THIS ALLOWS THE ENTIRE CLUTCH PEDAL BRACKET ASSEMBLY TO MOVE, CAUSING THE CREAKING NOISE. IF THE BRACKET COMPLETELY SEPARATES FROM THE FIREWALL, THE CLUTCH MAY BECOME COMPLETELY INOPERATIVE - ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING. *TR

These vehicles had their passenger frontal air bag inflators previously replaced under a prior recall using inflators of the same design. The inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, temperature and temperature cycling.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Remedy: Subaru will notify their owners. General Motors will notify Saab owners. Dealers will replace the passenger air bag inflators with alternate inflators, free of charge. The recall began January 7, 2020. Subaru Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-844-373-6614. Saab owners may contact the Saab Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-955-9007.

The ball spring inside the switch may break, reducing the strength of the ignition switch. If this occurs, the weight on the key ring and certain road conditions could cause the ignition switch to move out of the run position to the accessory position, turning off the engine.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: The engine turning off unexpectedly can increase the risk of a crash. If a crash occurs under this condition, the air bag may not deploy, increasing the risk of injury.
Remedy: Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the ignition switch, replacing the ignition switch, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began May 10, 2019. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-844-373-6614. Subaru's number for this recall is WUF-91.

Dec 31, 2014
Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain model year 2008-2011 Impreza, 2008-2014 WRX and STI, and 2009-2013 Forester vehicles, currently, or formerly, registered in Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia that were remedied under recall 14V-311 prior to December 23, 2014. The brake lines may experience brake line corrosion due to salt water splashing on the brake lines through a gap in the fuel tank protector.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Brake fluid may leak due to the brake line corrosion and may result in longer distances being required to slow or stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will apply an anti-corrosion wax to the four-way joint connector area of the brake line system, free of charge. The recall began on January 27, 2015. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-800-782-2783. Subaru's number for this recall is WQQ-52. Notes: This recall is specific to affected Forester, Impreza, WRX, and STI customers who had their car remedied under NHTSA recall no. 14V-311 prior to December 23, 2014. Subaru has determined that this remedy was inadequate due to incomplete repair instructions provided to dealers. Affected Forester, Impreza, WRX, and STI vehicles that were not repaired under NHTSA recall no. 14V-311 prior to December 23, 2014 will continue to be processed under NHTSA recall no. 14V-311. Affected vehicles not currently, or formerly, registered in the salt belt states identified in this recall are eligible for repair, at no cost to the customer, upon request.
Jun 10, 2014
Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain model year 2005-2009 Outback and Legacy, 2008-2011 Impreza and 2008-2014 Impreza WRX/STI, and 2009-2013 Forester vehicles, currently, or formerly, registered in Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin and the District of Columbia. Salt water could splash on the brake lines through a gap in the fuel tank protector, resulting in excessive corrosion of the brake lines. Note that affected vehicles not currently, or formerly registered, in the salt belt states identified above are eligible for repair, at no cost to the customer, upon request.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Brake line corrosion may result in brake fluid leakage. Fluid leakage may result in longer distances being required to slow or stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will test the brake system by depressing the brake pedal and inspecting for brake fluid leaks. If no brake fluid seepage is observed, the affected areas will be rustproofed with anti-corrosion wax. If brake fluid seepage is observed, the brake lines will be replaced followed by rustproofing with anti-corrosion wax. These services will be performed free of charge. The recall began July 2014 and second notifications will run through November 2014. Owners may contact Subaru at 1-800-782-2783. Subaru's recall campaign number is WQK-47. Note: This recall supersedes recall 13V-110 which applied to certain 2005-2009 Legacy/Outback vehicles. Vehicles that were remedied under the previous campaign still need additional areas rust-proofed.
