2006 SUBARU TRIBECA Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2006 Subaru Tribeca has 3 recalls, the most serious being a fire risk tied to dealer-installed accessory puddle lights that can short circuit, melt, and produce smoke. The other two recalls both address the same hood latch problem: both the primary and secondary latches can fail at the same time, allowing the hood to fly open while driving. When that happens, the hood can block the driver's view of the road and potentially damage the windshield, raising the risk of a crash.
