Subaru recall??

[Milo]

Following a recall in the US due to corroded suspension bits:

"2003-2008 Forester, and 2002-2007 Impreza except STI, and 2005-2006 Saab 9-2x check lower control arms for damage due to rust or corrosion, Subaru said it had reviewed complaints of front lower control arms broken at hanger brackets due to corrosion caused by road salt.
Inspect the front lower control arms for damage due to rust and replace or treat with an anti corrosive."

there is one in the UK now http://www.dft.gov.uk/vosa/apps/rec...CEFB948025793B002DBAEC&freeText=Blank&tx=VOSA
