The capacitors in the control unit of the electronic parking brake (EPB) may have insufficient strength. They could fail while the vehicle is in use, causing the EPB to malfunction, leading to an unexpected trigger or release of the brakes and increasing the risk of accident.
The Subaru Legacy models affected by this recall were manufactured between 2010 – 2014.
