Tho, this doesn't apply to the likes of many here (mostly 2012 models).

The Subaru recall involves nearly 32,000 Legacy, Outback and Impreza models from the 2012 model year. A defective brake master cylinder could cause the brake pedal to travel farther than expected. Federal safety regulators say this could cause a driver to misjudge the amount of pressure needed to stop quickly.

First, the US Automakers... Then Toyota.... then Global Warming.... then Heavy D :-( , and now this. :smt009

Subaru & Honda get their Master Cylinders from the same place?

It's not exactly like every failure of a single part is the fault of the Car manufacturer.

If it was a known issue though...

Yeh, that's what I'm waiting to see. Trying to dig up some more info, but all I get is some posts on NastSock about a stop ship/sale order. :smt102

Are they sure it's not operator error like it was with the Toyota's?! The big three made such a stink, Toyota's are now certified by NASA! HAHA
