Thanks for that.

 

This following article is not much different to the one you included ... but whether it is accurate or not, it says " .. Although a total of 2,107 vehicles are affected, a Subaru spokesperson told CR via email that the majority of affected vehicles have not yet been delivered to dealerships from the factory, and that fewer than 20 of the affected vehicles are in customer hands. ..."

P.S. I'm kinda glad we get the Japanese made ones here

You're lucky!

 

We're on our fourth Subaru ... two made in Japan (16 WRX, 17 BRZ) and two in the US (05 Outback, 17 Legacy). The ones made in Japan are of markedly better build than those from the US. The BRZ is the best built car we've ever owned, the Legacy the worst of the Subaru's (but better than the Audi's, BMW, Pontiac, Chevrolet and Plymouth).

Thankfully, my legacy was manufactured in the end of 2018 for the 2019 model year...
