Lancer Recall

I just checked out a carfax on my car (was bored) and there is a recall for the fan controller.

has anyone done this? what's it do?
how long do you have to drop off your car for?

Does this mean I have to take off all of the mods on my car to take it in?

I actually had this done about two weeks ago. I didn't know it was a recall, but mine stopped working so I took it in and they fixed it. They should recall the rear struts too, because those went on mine as well.

Thumbs up

Called Mitsu US today and they asked me for the last 8 digit of my VIN and they said I don't need to have mine replaced since it only affect a certain lot of Lancers produced between such and such a date ....blah blah blah
