I never did the valve spring recall work on my car. The dealer wanted a LOT more money because supercharger lol. They also hooped me on a starter motor replacement which in retrospect I could have done and also paid at least $300 less for the part from Subaru. (I caused the failure, seized belt from supercharger, weakened starter which failed a year later).
The valve springs actually failing is extremely rare. Probably more issues from improper replacements.

So, my never winter driven 2013 with 70K km (42K miles) must be worth spit. Good thing I will never sell it to fund another car purchase.
