Documented Subaru Impreza conditions
Higher safety relevance appears first. The order does not measure reliability.
2021 Subaru Impreza · Steering & suspension
Suspension component may fail
The left-front lower control arm weld may fail, allowing the control arm to separate from the crossmember.
2024 Subaru Impreza · Transmission & drivetrain
Driveshaft may break and cause power loss
The front driveshaft assemblies' outer race may develop cracks and break.
2017 to 2019 Subaru Impreza · Electrical & software

The Engine Control Module (ECM) may continue to power the ignition coil after the engine is shut off, which could result in a short circuit and blown fuse.
2015 to 2016 Subaru Impreza · Electrical & software

Fuel pump or delivery fault may cause a stall
The low-pressure fuel pump inside the fuel tank may fail.
Before diagnosing the Subaru Impreza
Use the right check before buying a part
A symptom can have several causes. These guides help separate a useful clue from a diagnosis that still needs testing.
Check recalls by VIN
A VIN search checks the displayed NHTSA records for an unrepaired safety recall associated with one vehicle. A model search shows only the wider campaign population.
Read guide ↗When a car is unsafe
A warning light does not always mean the same thing, but weak brakes or smoke leave little room for experimentation. Damaged tires and certain recall instructions can do the same.
Read guide ↗Why symptoms overlap
“It makes a weird noise” is useful human language. Diagnosis begins when that language is tied to the exact vehicle and its operating conditions.

Choose the description that sounds closest, then read the complete symptom pattern.
