How long is too long for post-recall repair?
 
I did the recall work on my FRS at a dealership and found massive oil leak approximately 1k miles after the work was done.

I contacted the service writer I worked with and brought the car back in. So far the car is at the dealer's service center for 1.5 weeks and when I texted the service writer, the only update he gave me was that they been running the car daily and haven't found anymore oil leaks.

Toyota dealership didn't give me a loaner car or rental for the post-recall repair, luckily public transportation is convenient for the locations.

How long is TOO LONG for your car to be at the dealership to repair problems post-Subaru recall?

My car was over heating after the recall , they had my car for over 60 days after I had brought it back about 10 after getting it back from recall . It was a major bitch getting the ride back after several calls and bickering back and forth with the service advisor and then service manager ........
Subaru of Modesto had stated that I had a busted head gasket , so their head set job took them 60?plus days till I got my ride back ........ from what I'm reading dealerships are holding on to others cars for weeks to months at times . I don't think their is a average time .....

I'm going into my 4th week with the loaner car tomorrow. When I called mid week they said they hadn't even brought my car in from the lot yet and they had no idea when that would happen. They also said if I took it back now it would have to be rescheduled and the next appt is in February next year! They sold a shitton of Imprezas and are doing a couple a day and only have 2 techs doing the work. I'm going to have to schedule an oil change for the loaner soon...
