Subaru has issued two safety recalls on current models, which may have defective steering columns.

Owners of Subaru Legacy and Outback models from 2016 should take their vehicle in for inspection immediately.

According to Health Canada, some steering column components may not have been put together correctly, and therefore may not engage like they should.

This could result in a loss of steering control and a higher risk for crashes and damage.

Dealers will inspect the applicable vehicles and replace the steering column if necessary.

Until then, owners are advised to not drive their vehicle until it has been looked at.
