I printed out the five page TSB of Subaru's and will take that to my Scion dealership tomorrow, leave my car, give them the copy of Subaru's TSB and tell them I want the problem fixed.
It will be intersting to see what results. I will post the outcome here.

4-9-13 follow-up. I went to the service department and talked to the service manager. I showed him the TSB from Subaru. He told me he could not do anything on some one else's TSB. I asked him if I came in with a warranty problem and if he knew how to fix it, would he. He said yes. I said here's the fix. I could tell he had been put on the spot. He promised me he would contact Toyota (Scion) to see if they would allow him to perform this fix. He said he would be in touch with me this week. Time will tell!
