Buying a used 2023 Subaru Impreza? Check these 2 recalls first

2 NHTSA recalls · 4 owner complaints on file

Two recalls, both mechanical: a brake light switch that can allow a rollaway, and driveshaft bolts that can loosen. The complaint record is nearly empty — four unverified owner reports filed with NHTSA, with no crashes, fires or injuries, touching tires, electrical and engine. A record that thin reflects a recent model year with few cars and few miles, so recall paperwork on the specific car tells you more than the complaint history does.

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. Verify the brake light switch recall was performed and brake lights work
3. Confirm the driveshaft bolt recall inspection by VIN
4. Inspect tire condition and date codes, the only repeated complaint area
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.
