NHTSA recall 24V227000
Air Bags · Subaru of America, Inc.
Details
What's wrong: Subaru of america, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain 2020-2022 Outback and Legacy vehicles. A capacitor in the sensors for the occupant detection system (ods) may crack and short circuit, which can prevent the front passenger air bag from deploying in a crash.
Why it matters: An air bag that does not deploy during a crash can increase the risk of injury.
The fix: Dealers will replace the ods sensors on the front passenger seat, free of charge. Owner notifications were mailed February 3, 2025.
