Description of the problem	In april 2019, i brought my 2013 subaru brz to the subaru dealership for valve spring recall. About 5 months later while i'm driving home from work, my car making loud knocking noise and vibrate aggressively. I'm very fortunate that i make it home safe. After doing some research, i found out i'm not the only one had engine failure after valve spring recall done. I tow my car to the dealership and they said it will cost $1800 to tear my engine apart and check for problem. I called subaru corporate and they said this is workmanship issue and i need to deal with the dealership. Now i'm stuck with a dead car. My car was perfectly function before the recall done. Please investigate this issue.
