I think its important to vet the dealership you're taking it into. If you can be assured by Toyota that they have a master tech at that location doing the recall work and that they've done a few other cars successfully then that should be reassuring.

Since I took mine into a Subaru dealership, I'm more confident knowing they're doing this recall on multiple models and have serviced lots of model year '13 cars, and probably with a high success rate. Their printed instructions on the assembly of the engine are very specific, its a neat read.

My BRZ is running well 2500 miles after recall, currently at 108,300, Car runs cleanly with a fresh clutch throw-out bearing and spark plug change. Have done two oil changes and am running on Mobil 1 0w30 AFE, running well through the hot summer, car drives smooth.

I am considering running an endoscope line through the oil drain plug and check the oil pickup screens and perhaps send an oil sample for analysis - thats just another $100 of dealing with an extra oil change though at the moment. I might call the dealership and have them check it for me.

Other thoughts are we are given a reasonable warranty on the recall items unless your dealership is acting shady. Hope you bought that extended warranty.
