Model Year	2016
File date	20/12/20
Component	ENGINE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The turbo charger intake duct cracked on my car, this is the new one that replaced my recalled one. But clearly was not a solution. I posted this on a form and a large amount of people commented stating they had the same issue. Ranging from 15 wrx to 18 maybe even newer. Whatever they used to glue the air bypass connector to the turbo duct does not hold up. It cracked and completely separated from the part. This allowed dirty air to contaminate my turbo and engine. Possibly causing premature wear in the future. This is an issue that needs to be addressed because the car can completely stall if it fails.
