Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Subaru of America is recalling certain 2005-2006 Baja, 2006-2008 Impreza (including WRX and STI models), Tribeca, and 2006 Saab 9-2X vehicles that were originally sold or ever registered in Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The passenger frontal air bag inflator modules in these vehicles may rupture during a crash due to propellant degradation caused by long-term exposure to humidity and temperature changes. If an inflator ruptures, metal fragments could strike vehicle occupants and cause serious injury or death.
Subaru will notify owners, and General Motors will notify Saab owners about the recall, which began on March 8, 2017. Dealers will replace the front passenger air bag inflator at no cost. Subaru owners can contact Subaru customer service at 1-800-782-2783 (recall number TKC-17), and Saab owners can contact the Saab Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-955-9007 to schedule a replacement appointment.
