Never rely on the dealer you are buying the car from for the inspection. If you are serious about it, pay to take it to a third party of your choice (not theirs).

The rod bearing recall didn't fix the issue. You should still get them swapped again soon for after market bearings. That'll run about $1800 at an independent shop.

The water pump and thermostat probably also need to be replaced at that mileage, as well as all the suspension bushings if they haven't already.
