Bay Area Subaru Dealer for Valve Spring Recall?
I know I'm late on the recall but I was wondering if you all could help me decide which Subaru dealer to take my BRZ to for the valve spring recall? Or which ones to avoid? Thanks in advance for the help!

Fremont Subaru will be your best bet. it's been 10k miles since I've had the recall done and no problems *knock on wood*. Currently at ~113k miles

Second for Fremont. 12k miles here, no problems. I checked the car when picking it up and found they did snap my engine cover so I asked them for a new one before leaving.

Carlsen subaru was the only dealership that would touch my car because it was supercharged. Still haven't blown up

Did anyone else also have a clutch put in during the valve spring recall? Dealer is suggesting clutch, pressure plate, flywheel, fork (?), and TOB for $1400 which sounds extremely high. Labor is 30min which sound fine.
