I thought the dealerships (private business) employs the techs. Toyota and Subaru are companies that are paying for the services in recall. So the toyota/subaru have to pay the dealers to pay the techs. (not toyota/subaru employs the techs)

Any up sell of parts or services would go to the dealers, not the company. The company would only make money on the parts as they normally would have since the dealer would have to buy the parts from toyota/subaru.

That's Plenty high enough of the odds for me to take the recall work.

Edit - its 0.0235%*
