National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) recall records show Subaru of America recalling a total of eight model year 2026 vehicles under a do-not-drive advisory: four 2026 Crosstrek vehi

Monday, November 9, 2026 · Society · GSM News

The castle nut on the left-front lower control arm ball joint may be improperly fastened, which can lead to the ball joint separating from the lower control arm, causing a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash. The affected part is the left-hand front lower arm assembly, part number 20202FN03A, supplied by TOA (USA), LLC of Mooresville, Indiana. The recall traces to a single field report, dated September 15, 2026, of a ball joint that had separated. Subaru decided to conduct the voluntary safety recall on October 10, and dealers were notified on October 15 to contact affected owners.

Owners are advised not to drive their vehicle until the remedy is completed, to have the vehicle towed to a dealership for inspection, and to park the vehicle outside. Dealers will inspect the left-front lower control arm ball joint assembly and replace it as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 16, 2026. Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1-844-373-6614 or check their vehicle identification number through NHTSA's recall lookup.
