Good news: Recall repairs cost you nothing. Book with any manufacturer dealer and quote the recall number — they are required to do the work free of charge, with no time limit and regardless of how many owners the car has had.
Note: This lookup is by make, model and year, so it lists every recall issued for that vehicle — not all of which will apply to your exact build. A dealer can confirm what is outstanding on your VIN in a minute.

Transport Canada recall 2026329 · manufacturer campaign WRH-26

7 July 2026

Transport Canada lists: Ascent 2019–2025 · Crosstrek 2026 · Forester 2025–2026

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the compliance label lists an incorrect gross axle weight rating (GAWR). This could lead you to overload the vehicle, which could cause poor handling or a tire failure. Note: For the Forester model, this recall affects both gas and hybrid models. For the Crosstrek model, only the Crosstrek Hybrid model is affected.

Why it matters

Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Subaru will mail a new compliance label to each owner. If you'd like help to install the label, you can contact a Subaru dealer to have it installed free of charge.

Transport Canada recall 2026077 · manufacturer campaign WRD-26

20 February 2026

Transport Canada lists: Crosstrek 2026 · Forester 2025–2026

What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the fuel filler cap gasket may not seal properly to the housing. As a result, fuel could leak from the fuel filler neck. Note: This recall only affects certain hybrid model vehicles.

Why it matters

A fuel leak can create the risk of a fire.

What the dealer will do

To reduce the safety risk, Subaru recommends keeping the fuel tank below 50% capacity until the recall repairs have been completed. Subaru will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the fuel filler cap gasket.
