PhotoSubaru of America is recalling 99 model year 2017 Outbacks manufactured June 20, 2016, to June 23, 2016.

 

The vehicles may have improperly tightened attaching bolts for the front left and right brake calipers, wheel hubs and the right stabilizer clamp.

 

If any of those bolts loosen or detach, the related components would also become loose and may detach possibly making the vehicle unstable and reducing the braking capability. These conditions would increase the risk of a crash.

 

What to do

 

Subaru has notified owners, and dealers will inspect the bolts for proper torque, and replace any loose bolts, free of charge. The recall began on August 8, 2016.

 

Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-800-782-2783. Subaru's number for this recall is WTE-66.
