2023 SUBARU ASCENT Recalls Canada & USA

2023 SUBARU ASCENT Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2023 Subaru Ascent has 3 recalls, the most serious being a front suspension defect where a loose ball joint nut can cause the joint to separate from the control arm, leaving the driver with sudden loss of steering and directional control. Vehicles with factory-installed all-season tires on 20-inch wheels also face a tire concern: the tire bead may have been damaged during the original wheel-mounting process at the factory, which can lead to a sudden loss of air pressure and loss of vehicle control. The damage is not visible from the outside, so there is no way to self-inspect for it.
