Like others said, it is very possible that they don't know about the problems yet.
Because contrary to what you may believe, the issues, while severe, aren't actually widespread.
Looking at the pool of BRZ/FR-S owners you have to realize that not all of them post on the forum and further, not all of them have the CEL issue.
Combined (between BRZ/FR-S) there have been about 8000 cars sold in the US. On the forum about 75 people (not all from the US, mind) have reported the CEL issue. Even if you take into account the people that have the problem that don't post, the CEL affects about 1% of the cars here. So it is not unreasonable that the dealer hasn't heard of it.
Now my advice to you is, if you really don't want to deal with this issue, WAIT. Unless this car was to be your only means of transportation in the near future I think you can wait a couple months or even until the next model year when everything's sorted out.
I mean, what if the dealer DID know about the CEL issue? How would that stop them from selling you a car that could potentially develop it?
