Legacy GT Wagon AWD F4-2.5L DOHC (1997)
VEHICLES INVOLVED
The potentially involved vehicles are 1997-1999 Model Year Legacy, Forester and Impreza models as indicated on Chart 1.
Affected vehicles are listed in Chart 1. However, only some of those vehicles within the affected range require inspection and repair. Some vehicles may
have already been repaired; check the vehicle for a campaign completion sticker in addition to the Dealer Communication System (DCS). All vehicles
must be confirmed as applicable using the Vehicle Coverage Inquiry in the DCS.
Dealers will be forwarded a listing of affected vehicles as indicated from the retail sale records. Customer letters will be sent only for vehicles shown as
sold on the date indicated on the listings. If you sold an affected vehicle since that date, you need to contact the owner and have the customer return for
the inspection/repair. Be certain to check the DCS system before contacting the owner to confirm it is an affected vehicle.
PARTS INFORMATION
