If this happens, the backup lamps may not turn on and the rearview camera image may not display when backing up. This could also cause the gear selection indicator in the instrument panel not to be displayed.\n\nSafety Risk:\nBackup lamps that don't work could cause others not to recognize when a vehicle is backing up. A rearview camera image that doesn't display could reduce a driver's ability to see behind the vehicle while backing up. These issues could increase the risk of a crash.\n\nCorrective Actions:\nSubaru will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the inhibitor switch.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"WRQ-23","part_number":null,"units":12839,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Circuit électrique","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Problème :\nSur certains véhicules, de l'eau pourrait s'infiltrer dans l'interrupteur inhibiteur de démarrage et en provoquer la défaillance, ce qui pourrait empêcher l'activation des feux de recul et l'affichage de l'image de la caméra de recul, en cours de marche arrière, de même que l'affichage de l'indicateur de vitesse dans le tableau de bord.\n\nRisques pour la sécurité :\nDes feux de recul ne s'allument pas peuvent faire en sorte qu'une personne ne se rende pas compte que le véhicule recule. De plus, une image de caméra de recul qui ne s'affiche pas pourrait réduire la capacité du conducteur à voir derrière le véhicule en marche arrière.
