The company said layers on the fuel hose may separate, causing it to leak.
The hose recall affects 1,456 vehicles.

Subaru will check 1,977 cars to check for a casting flaw in the right front
bearing housing that could lead to loss of vehicle control.

The company will also inspect 368 Legacy sedan vehicles with beige interiors
to replace the rear-centre seat belt, which may not extend to the full length.

The problems were found during quality-assurance testing, the company said.
