Vehicles Affected: Approximately 32,000 model-year 2012 Subaru Impreza sedans and wagons manufactured April 21, 2011, to Feb. 16, 2012; WRX and STI models are not affected.
The Problem: The airbag's Occupant Detection System may deactivate if a front passenger operates a device that is plugged into the power outlet or touches a metal part of the vehicle, such as the seat adjuster lever. If this happens, the front airbag will not deploy, increasing the risk of an injury.
The Fix: Dealers will replace the Occupant Control Unit for free.
What Owners Should Do: Subaru has not yet provided an owner notification schedule. Owners can call Subaru at 800-782-2783 or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration at 888-327-4236 for more information.
