Subaru XV crossovers are to be recalled in Russia

The company "Subaru Motor" announced the recall of 32 Subaru XV cars, sold from 2019 to the present time. The reason for the recall is that the spring latch used in the seat belt assembly can be installed at the wrong angle, the press service of Rosstandart reports.

This condition can lead to the bending of the spring latch, which may impede the rotation of the flywheel. If the flywheel is not working properly, the working sensitivity of the belt sensor is impaired. This may adversely affect the function of the seat belt lock. On cars, the rear seat belts will be replaced with new parts to fix the problem.

All work will be free of charge for owners. As AUTOSTAT previously reported, in 2019, Russian Subaru dealers sold 1,044 crossovers XV, which is 40% lower than a year ago.
