Toyota is also issuing the recall in Canada.
I put in my VIN # on their recall page and it shows up as affected. They also provide the attached notification. |

Well, remember that's the number that have been reported, which is likely through warranty work I would guess. If someone had the issue and had a 3rd party shop fix it for whatever reason (boosted, out of warranty, distrust of dealerships) it would not necessarily have been reported to Subaru to be in the count.

I only checked the federal site, and it does show up there. I'll verify through the Toyota site.

Yup, I'm on the list. I at least have some confidence in my dealer due to the fact that I had the spark plugs replaced at the appropriate interval, and they had to lift the engine to get to them that time as well. So, in theory, they at least have that practice on my car, and its worked just fine since then (I'm almost at 80k and out of warranty at this point).

Search Vin in NHTSA https://vinrcl.safercar.gov/vin/vinLookup Toyota (Canada) https://www.toyota.ca/toyota/en/my-toyota/recalls Toyota (USA) https://www.toyota.com/recall Subaru (Canada) Need to use the My Subaru app provided in the link https://www.subaru.ca/WebPage.aspx?W...ebPageID=21091 Subaru (USA) https://www.subaru.com/vehicle-recalls.html Rely on these not date ranges, news reports, etc. since there could be gaps in the production where other parts were used.

In Japan the first MY is from March 2012 to September 2013, classified as Chassis "A". My VIN is #600817 so I'm not sure if I'm part of the recall (hopefully not). |

In the end, I'll wait until I get the recall notice and then decide. With almost 140K miles on the car, I'm not too worried about it, but I'm also not dealer adverse as some folks are, so it doesn't bother me to have the work done.
