Toyota Town (London, ON)

Hi friends!

I'm a hopeful FRS owner soon! A 13 FRS' I'm looking at had their Valve Spring recall done at Toyota Town.

Does anyone have any positive or negative feedback about having their recall work done there?

The owner has noted he's put in over 10k miles since the recall work was done last summer, and he has not had any issues so I think I would be in the clear.

Cheers,

I did not get the recall work done (mine is a 14) but the service team there are very experienced and conscientious so I would be very, very surprised if they screwed up something as simple as sealing an engine.
If he has put that many miles on it then you should be well out of the woods by now.

Sounds good to me!

Congrats on the Hakone btw! Been a lurker on this forum too long, so I've seen your wonderful input on this forum. My time for a twin is coming soon!
