All I know is that which is posted in the article.
After November 5th things may become a bit clearer as to the extent.......

thats exactly my reason for asking. Not only that but would u even want a dealership mechanic doing it even if they replaced any parts with same spec as you've fitted ?

If you’ve imported a car and let’s say it needed a recall in Japan would Subaru catch up with you.

I think this applies to the newer cars not cars 10 to 15 years old

you’d need to ring up as I did with the airbag recall and they’ll sort it if needed very helpful at Subaru as I found when getting my airbag recall sorted
