## What is wrong

Subaru of America, Inc. \(Subaru\) is recalling certain 2020\-2022 Outback and Legacy vehicles.  A capacitor in the sensors for the Occupant Detection System \(ODS\) may crack and short circuit, which can prevent the front passenger air bag from deploying in a crash.


## What can happen

An air bag that does not deploy during a crash can increase the risk of injury.


## The remedy

Dealers will replace the ODS sensors on the front passenger seat, free of charge.  Owner notifications were mailed February 3, 2025.  Owners may contact Subaru customer service at 1\-844\-373\-6614.  Subaru's number for this recall is WRA\-24.
