## What is wrong

Subaru of America, Inc. \(Subaru\) is recalling certain 2017\-2018 Impreza and 2018 Crosstrek vehicles equipped with an aluminum Positive Crankcase Ventilation \(PCV\) valve.  The PCV valve may come apart, allowing the separated components to enter the engine, possibly resulting in a loss of power while driving.


## What can happen

An unexpected loss of power while driving can increase the risk of a crash.


## The remedy

Subaru will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the PCV valve, free of charge.  If the PCV valve has separated and the components cannot be found, the engine will be replaced, free of charge.  The recall began December 2, 2019.  Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1\-844\-373\-6614.  Subaru's number for this recall is WUP\-01.
