Subaru of America, Inc. (Subaru) is recalling certain model year 2016-2017 Legacy and Outback vehicles manufactured February 29, 2016, to May 6, 2016. The steering column on the affected vehicles may have been improperly machined, and as a result, turning the steering wheel may have no effect on the direction of the wheels.

WE PICKED UP A BRAND NEW SUBARU LEGACY YESTERDAY AND DROVE IT APPROXIMATELY 75 HOME LATE IN THE AFTERNOON. AFTER I GOT ON THE INTERSTATE TRAVELLING EAST THERE WAS A TERRIBLE, BLINDING GLARE COMING OFF THE INFOTAINMENT/CLIMATE CONTROL AREA. IT IS COVERED WITH A VERY GLOSSY MATERIAL. SOME GLARE ALSO CAME OFF THE SILVER TRIM ON THE DASHBOARD ABOVE THE GLOVEBOX, AND TO THE LEFT OF THE DRIVER CONSOLE, BUT THE WORST IS THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN. I WAS BLINDED, DISTRACTED, AND ENDED UP WITH A BLINDING MIGRAINE. CAN'T SUBARU COME UP WITH A NON-GLARE FILM FOR THIS?
