Default Anyone taken the car in to have the manifold tightened per the latest TSB?

I clearly have a white dot which means that I am affected by the TSB, but I am wondering if this is something that I need to immediately get taken care of or just wait until the next time I am at the dealership?

Default each dot is put on when they perform an engine update....

I have Green and White. Since yellow is the new TSB it will need a yellow as well.

Default Does the service department do this?

Is this the way it works:

Initial inspections are done either at the factory, the port, or the delivering dealership. From that point on, the dealer adds them at a subsequent service appointment.

???

I haven't checked for dots yet, but being an April build, should I expect to see some?
