What's the important recall? If it's a recall don't they have to fix it out of warranty? Or do you mean TSB?

There are two FRS recalls:
1) Some ATs had a wire off that allowed you to remove the key while running. If you can't pull your key out then you are OK.
2) Recall from Southeast Toyota only. Added accessories not indicated on weight capacity sticker so sticker reads 5 to 10 pounds light.
One for Subaru:
1)Engine Control Module Reprogramming Vehicles Registered in the States of
CA, CT, MA, MD, ME, NJ, NY, OR, PA, RI, VT, WA. Reprogram ECU the monitor engine coolant temperature better and turn CEL on if not reaching operating temp.
None earth shattering. If you bought your car from a dealer and it is registered through Toyota/Subaru you will receive notifications of any recalls.
TSBs are NOT recalls in any form. They are simply instructions to the Techs on how to fix known issues. The car needs to be exhibiting the problem when brought in for them to fix it. Even then they are in no way forced to do the work even if in warranty. You can not just take your car in and say "there is a TSB so fix it" based just on the TSB ( although some dealers have been reported to do it).
