Can't help with the steering, but about the recall...
It certainly involves new liquid gaskets. Subaru hasn't killed as many engines doing it as Toyota, so it should be fine.

Yeah, I'm not expecting to take the car home yet, he told me the recall would be a few days. But in the mean time, I need to make a decision to have them order the new steering column or if I should get the EPS motor ordered and in the mail to me. Thanks for the reply, more hopeful that the recall will go well with the insight that Subaru's survive it better.

It's an automatic, so unless I am mistaken, clutch throw out bearing shouldn't be present. Are the plugs really that hard to get to that it's better to ask them to do them with the motor out rather than me replacing them after I get it back? Honest question, haven't had too much issue getting to spark plugs on most my motors for replacement.
