Subaru issued recalls to 139,324 vehicles in the United States, worldwide around 440k +/- vehicles. This included some BRZ, Impreza & Crosstrek's due to an issue with weak valve springs installed in only 11% of those vehicles. Problem is, they had no way of identifying exactly which vehicles in that "batch" had actually received the faulty valve springs. In the US, 11% is less than 16,000 of the 139,324 vehicles that actually had faulty valve springs.

I wouldn't have the recall performed unless you had a valve spring failure. In my 18 years working in Subaru service...I only saw one actual failure...

My 2013 has 33k miles of hard track use, never had the valve springs replaced...
