Anyone read more about this?
|
Yes, several threads already in Issues | Warranty | Recalls / TSB section.

Great, After being part of the VW diesel scandal and buyback, now this :o
|
I'm curious which models the valve springs were used on.
Was it only 1 production run, on 1 variant? Until we know for sure there is only assumptions, and once an assumption hits the interwebs it always gets blown out of proportion. I haven't heard of valve train failures being a major issue with the 86 or BRZ. In saying that, I hope if there are issues, they don't effect my 17. The Takata recall is bigger than Ben Hur, we don't want to go there. |
Yeah this board is a pretty good sampler of all the issues this platform has come across and I can't think of anyone having a valve spring issue.

If real we will get a notice. If not we will hear nothing from Subaru and the whole thing will just go away. Of course now somebody will panic over every little noise they never noticed before. |
Looks like vehicles manufactured between January '12 and September '13
Twins included Fox Business: Subaru and Toyota to recall more than 400,000 vehicles. https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/...00000-vehicles |
Much better info in this thread: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/show...81#post3150781
Probably be a dozen more threads made though. |

Well, I have first gen 2013 BRZ. This sucks... |
Just saw it on the news today and there's no way us 2013 owners are not impacted. It sucks that some 9-5'er at the dealership needs to take apart the motor. I'm nearly at 150k miles, wondering if I should risk it and not bother.

For Canadian owners, don't know the status in the States Probably take a month or two before notices go out? After looking in the manual on spark plugs, maybe I'll ask them to change the plugs while they are in there changing springs...... |

Hooray for new valve springs... |
I received my notice as well. But the dealer still does not have parts. I have to wait for the local dealer to call for an appt.
