2020 SUBARU OUTBACK Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2020 Subaru Outback has 6 recalls, the most serious involving a transmission control unit programming error that can allow the drive chain to slip and break, cutting power to the wheels while driving. A separate recall covers the low-pressure fuel pump inside the fuel tank, which can fail and stall the engine while the vehicle is in motion. There is also a floor mat concern: an incorrect bracket may allow the driver's mat to shift and catch on the accelerator or brake pedal. Two recalls affect the rearview camera. A software update can cause the center display to go blank and reboot on a three-minute cycle, which interrupts the camera feed during each restart. A related issue stems from an over-the-air update that may not have completed properly, corrupting the system and causing the rearview display to cut out intermittently while reversing. Prior software attempts did not fully resolve the underlying display issue.
