Subaru has recalled 20,366 Forester SUVs from model year 2025 because their wheels may be defective.
The company tells federal safety officials that the wheels may have an “incorrectly specified lug seat surface,” which “could affect vehicle stability, increasing the risk of a crash.”
Subaru says it is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the problem, which a technician discovered on the production line.
Dealers will fix it by inspecting the wheels and replacing any with the incorrect lug seat surface.
Automakers recall many cars to fix safety defects, sometimes more than once. While automakers try to reach every owner to ask them to bring the vehicle in for repair, they rarely reach them all. Millions of vehicles on American roads need free recall repairs. Check the easy VIN tool at our recall center to find out if your car is one of them.
