I'm actually at my dealer right now! I just mentioned it, they looked up my vin and there's no charge! They're keeping the car all day though.

I have had mine replaced (CBFA) four times in under 70K and am listed as eligible.

Yes same here. Vegas, I think If you bring it in during an active service campaign, 19K5 in this case, you are scratched off the list for now. Until there is another...since these 'new' pumps being installed aren't exactly strangers to us. I got a BG pump last week...I know of a few on here that have had those leak already.
WATER PUMP RECALL
Received a letter from VW yesterday that my 2011 CBFA GTI is covered until December 31, 2018. My pump went 3 years ago.
My wife also owns a 2011 but we have not received a letter for her car yet. She has 40,000 miles and the pump is original.
Do not know what makes these pumps go but i do think the installation has something to do with it. I will have to check the water temp in both cars to see what the running temp is. This might have a bearing on the life of the pump. It might be that CBFA engines might run a little hotter then the 48 state version.
Whatever i am covered for the water pump for another 3 1/2 years more.:happyanim:

When I had mine done last week, my svc dept. rep said that my dealer has replaced " a lot" of pumps over the past few months with the newest version and no one has come back yet with a leaky one. So take that for what it is worth......
