Buying a used 2018 Subaru BRZ? Check these 2 recalls first

2 NHTSA recalls · 1 owner complaints on file

Two recalls on the 2018 BRZ: a fuel pump that can quit while driving, shared with the Toyota 86, and a backup camera that can go blank, shared with the Legacy and Outback. The owner-complaint record is essentially bare, with a single unverified NHTSA report filed under engine and engine cooling, and no crashes, fires or injuries logged. With so little complaint data to draw on, this specific car's recall completion and service history carry more weight than model-year patterns.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Run the VIN to confirm the fuel pump recall replacement was done, not just mailed out
3. Put the car in reverse and confirm the backup camera image appears reliably, cold and warm
4. Ask for full service records, since there is almost no complaint data to compare against
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Subaru dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
