It is our solemn duty to inform you that your Subaru Baja could be trying to light itself, and by extension, you, on fire.

The problem is a leaky fuel hose which could spray enough gas around your engine to light it on fire. As you can imagine, this is not ideal for you. The problem affects 2005-2006 Bajas, of which there are 15,633.

If you own one of these cars, you may contact Subaru to have a new fuel pump installed, free of charge: 1-800-782-2783
