Subaru has reached a settlement in a class action lawsuit regarding defective fuel pumps in some of its vehicles. The lawsuit alleges that certain Subaru cars were equipped with low-pressure fuel pumps manufactured by Denso that may have defects.
The claim suggests that these defects could cause fuel pumps to malfunction or stop working entirely. The settlement aims to compensate consumers for violations of state consumer protection laws and other related payouts.
This follows a similar settlement from General Motors, which resolved a $35 million class action over faulty fuel injection systems in certain GM and Chevrolet trucks. The GM settlement is open to claims until July 21, 2025.
To qualify for a payout, you must be a member of the class action and own or lease a Subaru vehicle with a Denso fuel pump, which includes the following models:
To qualify, you must have paid out-of-pocket for repairs or replacement of a faulty fuel pump in a covered Subaru vehicle, and these expenses must not have been reimbursed. These expenses must have been incurred before the deadline for appeals from the Final Judgment approving the Settlement.

The Subaru class action settlement offers several benefits, including extended warranties, customer support programs, loaner or towing services, and reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses.
To file a claim, you must complete and submit a claim form with any required documentation to the Subaru low-pressure fuel pump class action settlement administrator. Claims can be submitted online or by mail between September 24, 2024, and 90 days after the court issues the final class action judgment.
A final order marks the official resolution of the Subaru class action settlement. The judge’s final approval hearing is scheduled for November 18, 2024, and the final order will follow.
