Recall: ignition coil short circuit, risk of stalling
Manufacturer recallIn the United States, NHTSA campaign 21V264 concerns 2017-2019 Impreza models: the engine control unit may keep supplying the ignition coil after the engine has been switched off, creating a short circuit that can cause stalling and increase the risk of an accident. The remedy (engine control unit update and replacement of the coils) is free at the dealership. This is a US campaign: its application to cars sold in France is not confirmed by our sources.
Fixed free of charge by a dealer and not counted in the reliability score: ask for proof the work was done (invoice, or a VIN check at a dealer).
