Check your VIN at the NTSA website. My car came right up at subject to the recall.

I figure the dealer techs would have done a TON of these the last go-round, so should be plenty familiar with the process, and certainly R&R of valve covers has to be bread and butter for them, and that is most of the work here.

I mostly trust my dealer - they did a bit of shoddy warranty work in the beginning which I raised Hell about, every time they have touched the car since it has been done properly. I suspect there is a "note in my file' that this guy is a fussy bastard who WILL check your work, so unless you do it right the first time, you will get to do it again for free.
