I've been keeping this bit private for a while now, but regarding Consumer Reports, they definitely know of the issue. A few days after my FR-S made it into the shop for the CEL/idle issue, I learned a Consumer Reports owned FR-S was just finishing up with repairs at the same dealership...for the very same CEL/idle problem.

Also, from what I was told, repair time was about four days for that car. I've wondered if the car made a return trip to the dealer as it was one of the first repairs before Toyota/Subaru really figured out the ECU update.
