recall for secondary waterpump

I just got a letter from subaru Canada about the waterpump for 2008-2013 wrx/sti. I have a 2013 wrx, I don't have a check engine light or anything that they say could appear or happen. should I still go to them to change it?

Yes. Recalls are free to you. Go to the dealer, have some coffee and check out some cars.

The original part that is being recalled may or may not cause you issues in the future, but you should still have it replaced with the part if it has been officially recalled.

Do it for your safety/reliability for the future ownership of the car.

UMMMM... Get it done. Get it done SOON!


"Subaru Recalls 100,000 Cars for Smog Pumps That Could Melt and Catch Fire. ... A faulty relay that controls the air pump may let the pump run continuously, at which point the pump could overheat, melt, and catch fire. In fact, that exact scenario has occurred at least twice between 2013 and 2015, Subaru reported."
