Recall 97V210000: Hazard Warning Switch Binding

Vehicle Description: Passenger vehicles. Insufficient clearance within the hazard warning light switch housing can cause a binding between the actuating button and the housing. The switch could stick in an intermediate position when deactivating, resulting in the turn signals becoming inoperable.

Dealers will install a modified hazard warning switch.

Owner notification is expected to begin January 5, 1998. Owners who take
their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Subaru at 1-800-782-2783. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
