0.1 percent is small enough not to bring my car in and risk them messing up my perfectly fine engine. I'll pass after hearing all these problems people are unfortunately having.
Made up my mind and ignored the recall... My car will most likely die from other excessive "fun" factors than the valve-springs breaking apart.
