subaru airbag check

Doing a Subaru airbag check? If the airbag light stays on after start-up, that’s a workshop job—not a DIY escapade with a multimeter and misplaced confidence. To confirm recall status (including the big Takata saga), use Subaru Australia’s VIN recall checker or call a dealer; replacements under recall are free, and some "alpha" inflators mean park it and book immediately. Have the VIN handy (windscreen base or rego papers), and get written proof of any completed recall for your records. When buying used, avoid cars with missing airbag components or suspicious steering wheel swaps, and insist on a logbook entry showing the recall done. Safety first; heroics belong on track days, not with airbags.
