I actually pulled my original engine to fix a timing cover leak and then promptly blew up my spare so it had to go back in. My OG engine is at over 100K 40ish track days.

If that means they shouldn't recall this issue, or we should be happy that issue waited for 5 more years to be recalled (or any customer of a car with an widespread issue that contributes to engine failure, as has been reported already with the RTV chunks), then I don't agree. |

I repeat - The only reason that the valve spring became a NHTSA issue at all was because Subaru asked for it to be. Less than 1% of the cars made so far have had engine issues whether related to the RTV in the pan or not that is not "widespread". The manufacturers have all the facts and will base what they do on them not the emotions of a very tiny handful of car owners. Nobody has said that there should not be any action and there most likely has been that we do not see.

And when the repair created more issues than the original recall there was no recall on the recall. Not that I recall at any rate.

This is what my comment is referring to. Don't change the subject or try to paint it as a response that it is not. This kind of stuff takes time, like watching a cruise ship try to turn. No doubt Toyota and Subaru looked into what caused the issue, the corrective measures in production. How many units were affected. Probability of failure and so forth. Corrective measures on potentially affected cars will probably follow if there are any. It's only been what, 6 months since this issue popped up.
