| Description of the problem | 2005 subaru outback rear hub recall: not convinced that the recall that replaces the rear hubs with the improved version is effective. I had both rear hubs replace under the recall at 45,000 miles and one of those went out at 86,000 miles (41,000 miles after replacement). This concerns me that the new rear hubs are having problems so quickly. |
