Buying a used 2025 Subaru Solterra? Check these 2 recalls first
The 2025 Solterra has 2 recalls, addressing a defroster that may fail and a rearview camera image that may freeze. Both concern visibility equipment, so repair documentation and actual operation are central checks. NHTSA lists 4 unverified owner complaints, with 1 each in visibility/wiper, power train, electrical systems, and unknown or other. The supplied complaint record lists 0 crashes, 0 fires, and 0 injuries; it does not establish how frequently any defect occurs.
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.
- Verify completion of the defroster recall for this VIN.
- Confirm camera recall completion and check for a frozen image.
- Ask about defrosting failures, electrical faults, or powertrain repairs.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Subaru dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
