The gap may also make the glove box door difficult to close fully.There is a latch to keep the glove box closed on both sides of the glove box door. If the door is closed without using enough force to engage both latches or by pushing it shut on just one side instead of in the middle, one may close and not the other. Over time, if the door is not fully closed with both latches, high cabin temperatures along with weight of the items inside the glove box may cause the assembly to deform slightly and a gap to develop.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10150887-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10150887-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10150887","components":[{"id":"structure-body","name":"Body and frame","parent":null},{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null},{"id":"instrument-cluster","name":"Instrument cluster","parent":"electrical"}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"SUBARU","model":"BRZ","year_from":2013,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2013_subaru_brz","2014_subaru_brz","2015_subaru_brz","2016_subaru_brz","2017_subaru_brz"]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"CROSSTREK","year_from":2013,"year_to":2015,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"CROSSTREK","year_from":2016,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2016_subaru_crosstrek","2017_subaru_crosstrek"]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"FORESTER","year_from":2014,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2014_subaru_forester","2015_subaru_forester","2016_subaru_forester","2017_subaru_forester"]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"IMPREZA","year_from":2012,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2012_subaru_impreza","2013_subaru_impreza","2014_subaru_impreza","2015_subaru_impreza","2016_subaru_impreza","2017_subaru_impreza"]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"WRX","year_from":2015,"year_to":2017,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2015_subaru_wrx","2016_subaru_wrx","2017_subaru_wrx"]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"WRX STI","year_from":2015,"year_to":2017,"match":"base","vehicle_ids":["2015_subaru_wrx","2016_subaru_wrx","2017_subaru_wrx"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
