Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Subaru and General Motors (for Saab vehicles) are recalling certain model year 2003–2008 Subaru Baja, Impreza, Legacy, and Outback vehicles, as well as 2005 Saab 9-2x vehicles, due to a defect in the passenger side frontal air bag inflator. The inflator may be susceptible to moisture intrusion, which over time could cause it to rupture during deployment in a crash, potentially sending metal fragments toward vehicle occupants and causing serious injury or death.
Affected Subaru owners should contact Subaru customer service at 1-800-782-2783, and affected Saab owners should call 1-800-955-9007. Dealers will replace the passenger air bag inflator free of charge. The Subaru recall began June 17, 2015, and the Saab recall began July 27, 2015.
