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

2 NHTSA recalls · 4 owner complaints on file

The 2023 Impreza has 2 recalls involving brake light switch adjustment and driveshaft bolts that may loosen and disconnect. These make brake light operation and documented driveshaft recall work the main pre-purchase verification points. NHTSA lists 4 owner complaints, which are unverified reports: tires appear in 2, while unknown or other, electrical system, and engine each appear in 1. The category counts overlap and should not be added together as separate complaints or treated as confirmed defects.

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 brake light switch recall completion and brake light operation.
3. Obtain documentation of driveshaft bolt recall work.
4. Inspect tires and ask about electrical or engine problems.
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.
