Explained in plain English

Can I ignore a recall notice?

Ignoring a recall like Subaru's label issue isn't advisable. While it might seem minor, recalls are issued for safety reasons, even if no incidents have occurred yet. Driving a vehicle with an unaddressed recall could put you and others at risk, and might even affect your insurance or vehicle's resale value down the line.
