Subaru Impreza 2018 : problèmes, plaintes et rappels
Bien moinsTrop peu de plaintes récentes pour juger
La NHTSA a reçu 151 plaintes de propriétaires concernant la Subaru Impreza 2018, soit 17,2 par année de circulation — bien moins de plaintes que la normale (indice de plaintes 0,43, 1,00 étant la moyenne de tous les véhicules suivis). Parmi les 76 véhicules du millésime 2018 que nous suivons, elle se classe 31e sur 76 selon les plaintes par an (1re = le moins de plaintes). Par rapport aux autres modèles Subaru, son taux est inférieur de 53 % ; par rapport aux autres Compactes, il est inférieur de 22 %.
Les chiffres sont normalisés par le temps passé sur la route, pas par les ventes : un modèle populaire génère plus de signalements qu'un modèle rare, et les plaintes ne sont pas vérifiées une par une. Notre méthode

I bought a new Subaru Impreza and there is a cam carrier leak that was reported last time I took it for service at the dealership two weeks ago. There are only 41k miles on the car, and there were no warning lights/messages.

Résumé: Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain 2017-2019 Impreza vehicles. The left and right side reflex reflector and left side low beam reflector may inadequately reflect light. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 108, "Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment."
Risque: Reflectors that do not provide adequate illumination reduce the driver's ability to see and increase the risk of a crash.
Remède: Dealers will replace the front headlamp assemblies, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed November 15, 2023. Owners may contact Subaru's customer service at 1-844-373-6614. Subaru's number for this recall is WRG-22.
