I received a notification from Subaru of America that they are offering free labor for inspection and repairs of 2008,2009, and eary 2010 WRX & STI models for this defect.
They are also offering reimbursement for anybody who has paid to have the spot welds or clutch assembly fixed.
Unfortunately, there isn't a claim # or reference number for this form. But reach out to Subaru Customer Service @ 800 782 2783 and reference:
"Warranty extension for pedal bracket cracks or breake around the spot welds on 2008, 2009, and early production 2010 WRX or STI"
