Official summary

Some good news! Subaru of America has decided to arrange a gift for each customer that was driving an impacted sold unit at the start of this recall. For customers that do not have an added security maintenance plan, we will be providing a $100 Subaru gift coupon, redeemable for parts, service, accessories or Subaru Gear. For those customers with the added security maintenance plan, we will be providing a $100 prepaid debit card. Details and timing on this will be forthcoming.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
