Here's the kicker: if they do this and it turns out the fault wasn't recall related, I will be on the hook for 8h of labor ($1072) CAD.

Thoughts on next steps?
That doesn’t seem right. When I got my car back to the original dealership they never told me I would be in the hook for anything. Toyota sent out a rep to look at the engine and determine if it would be covered.
