I would use this as a way of getting your car into the shop and have them fucking at least make a note of it, and send your information in. Later on you have paper trail saying they're inept and you had to tell them how to do their job. It will help for sure if/when they start talking about compensating us, you have some ammo to shoot off to make them easier to negotiate with.

Just my 2 cents.
It's a leaked Toyota Australia document. No one from Toyota/Subaru USA has acknowledged the problem. I would print it out anyways and follow the procedure to see of you can somehow trip a CEL. There's also a Subaru TSB that you can still find a link to but Subaru pulled that one as well.
