Before you buy
- 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.
- Request stalling, power loss and ignition coil recall completion records.
- Verify rear belt, suspension bolt and steering assist recall work.
- Confirm rear glass recall work and ask about visibility/wiper or electrical faults.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Subaru dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
