Transport Canada2 safety recalls on file for the 2026 Subaru Forester Wilderness.
LabelThe compliance label lists an incorrect gross axle weight rating (GAWR).

Note: For the Forester model, this recall affects both gas and hybrid models. For the Crosstrek model, only the Crosstrek Hybrid model is affected.
Safety Risk
Poor handling or a tire failure could cause a loss of control and increase the risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions
Subaru will mail a new compliance label to each owner. If you'd like help to install the label, you can contact a Subaru dealer to have it installed free of charge.

Issue
On certain vehicles, the fuel filler cap gasket may not seal properly to the housing. As a result, fuel could leak from the fuel filler neck.
Note: This recall only affects certain hybrid model vehicles.
Safety Risk
A fuel leak can create the risk of a fire.
Corrective Actions
To reduce the safety risk, Subaru recommends keeping the fuel tank below 50% capacity until the recall repairs have been completed. Subaru will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the fuel filler cap gasket.
