Subaru has announced a recall for a number of 2014-2016 model year Forester, 2011-2014 WRX (four-door), 2008-2016 Impreza and 2012-2017 Subaru XV vehicle models over a potential issue concerning the brake light switch on these cars.
The automaker says that in certain cases, silicone gas from certain consumer products may seep through the housing of the brake light switch and impact operation of the circuit. As a result, functions related to the brake light switch (brake light, transmission interlock, ignition interlock, Vehicle Dynamics Control and EyeSights system) may stop operating.
If this were to occur, the company says that the failure of the brake lights will result in other road users being unaware of the driver’s intention to stop the vehicle, thereby increasing the risk of accidental collisions.
Motor Image says the recall exercise involves affected vehicles in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. Owners will be notified about this recall, and Motor Image will arrange to replace the brake light switch and related parts in the affected cars, free of charge.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
This is what you call a responsible company. Got problem, they address it. Some companies, been around over 30 years, only had just a handful of recalls.
This is a bit suspicious. Also, in the past, if your cars had power Windows defect, you must recall all cars and repair for FREE and guarantee it for at least 10 years.

Why so suspicious that Malaysian Subarus aren’t affect? Please get your Subaru bosses to answer me this.
YB Kunta Kinte is hypocrite.
Contradict himself in different article.
Suka hati hentam rupanya.
LOL
That he is, my friend. That he is.
Agree with u to bro!
Try harder bro. Try harder. Everybody knows about you answering your dupes
All Malaysians waiting for the new Subaru Forester. Hopefully it will be RM123k like the current Forester.
Then, no need to think which car to buy when you have RM123k to spend
Jepunis car that has won tons of rally championship and highly acclaimed Boxer engine for RM123k
or
China car that cannot be sold in all First World countries for RM123k
Tak payah pikir beb
Problem visible from outside, so must recall
What Jepunis quality? Lolz!
Subaru, look at UMW not recalling despite burnt out brake light bulbs a common sight even for a few months old Toyotas.
Last night I saw one previous gen Camry at North South Highway with only its headlamp still working, and all its rear lights not working at all. The Camry should be 3 to 4 years old base on its plate number. Seldom I can see car with all rear lights not working. Looks like the superior quality of Japanese cars are long gone, just like its electronic products.
Hope Motor Image do what is appropriate. Don’t be like Proton, always make don’t know
Yes. They don’t know what are you babbling about.
