NOTE: The Airbag systems used on previous and current WRX, STI and Tribeca models are NOT equipped with EDR functionality. This Bulletin provides information regarding Event Data Recorder (EDR) functionality which has been incorporated into the airbag system. The function of the EDR is best explained using the following statements found in the vehicle Owner?s Manual: ?This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations such as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in the understanding how a vehicle?s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as: ? How various systems in your vehicle were operating; ? Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened; ? How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; ? How fast the vehicle was traveling. This data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.

This bulletin provides new part information and an identification procedure to address a small number of vehicles identified with a sticking secondary hood latch mechanism. The hood latch mechanism is exposed to foreign materials during normal use which can accumulate and cause the secondary portion to not operate properly. The spring-loaded secondary latch is manually released (after pulling the inside hood release lever to operate the primary latch mechanism) by the operator to open the hood. If faulty, the spring may not have enough force to return the lever back to its original position while the hood is open. Once the hood is closed, the secondary latch is forced into the closed position by design.

Subject: New Service Programs: WTG?67 and WTH?68 ? Relay replacement In the interest of customer satisfaction, Subaru of America, Inc. is initiating two service programs for certain 2015 and 2016 model year Legacy and Outback vehicles, for the repair procedure previously published in TSB number 07?89?15R. Description: Subaru has redesigned several ignition relays in order to provide improved cold weather re?starting performance. Under certain extreme cold weather conditions, after the engine is shut off, ice crystals may form inside the relay which may temporarily prevent the driver from re?starting the vehicle.

This repair procedure was previously published in TSB number 07-89-15R. In the interest of customer satisfaction, Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is now initiating a service program for certain 2015 and 2016 model year Legacy and Outback vehicles as described in this Service Program bulletin. INTRODUCTION: During ocean transportation of the EGI Main relays, moisture may be absorbed into them from exposure to very high ambient humidity conditions. During normal operation, this moisture is heated by the relay?s electric coils and evaporated while the engine is running however, it may not all be eliminated. If the vehicle is used in extreme cold temperatures (-20C / -4F), ice crystals may form on the relay?s contacts due to rapid heat radiation after the engine is turned off. As a result, these ice crystals can insulate and prevent electricity from flowing and lead to a contact failure. Should this occur, the engine may fail to start immediately. For example: if the engine is started under extreme cold temperatures, shut-off and left to ?soak? for approximately 20 minutes and then restarted, the described relay freezing/no-start condition may occur requiring several attempts to start the engine.

Through the weekend we have shipped 17,346 steering columns, which represents 67% of the total sold vehicles. In fact, 1,355 steering columns were delivered to retailers this Saturday, another 1,712 will be delivered today, and another 3,000 will be delivered tomorrow. Given projected failure rate of 66%, this means we should now be starting to repair units in retailer inventory. However, we realize that this may not be the case for every retailer. We will continue to ship parts at an average of 1,500 per day this week, and we will utilize VIN counts collected over the weekend to prioritize and allocate parts going forward. It is very important that each retailer continue to follow up with customers that have not arranged for inspection or to have their vehicles towed to the retailer. We need every vehicle inspected or repaired, and we need this done as soon as it is practical. It is also important that claims are entered on a timely basis, every day, so we can keep a good accounting of the completed cars.

Also, we are experiencing a reimbursement issue for the 3.6L vehicles. We are working to correct the system and will advise when the correction is completed.
