Buying a used 2019 Subaru Impreza? Check these 5 recalls first
The 2019 Impreza has 5 recalls addressing engine stalling, fuel pump failure, ignition coil short circuits, and insufficient reflector performance. Fuel pump failure appears in multiple listed campaigns, so VIN-specific records matter when checking completion. NHTSA records 194 owner complaints, which are unverified reports. Exterior lighting accounts for 63, visibility/wiper for 55, unknown or other for 26, and electrical system for 19. The complaint record makes lighting and visibility useful inspection areas alongside the propulsion-related recall documentation.
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.
- Check VIN-specific completion of every applicable fuel pump campaign.
- Obtain stalling and ignition coil recall repair records.
- Verify reflector recall completion and inspect lights and wipers.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Subaru dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
