Water Pump issue, after taking in for Recall

Ok, so today I took my 2007 Sedan, into get that recall seatbelt issue fixed, by the way, I havent noticed any difference in outside noice. I was told that my water pump was malfuctioning an they have to replace it, even though the car never showed me the check engine light, the toyota person told me, that it wasnt a big issue, so I scheduled it for 2 saturdays from now. Has anyone else had this issue?, its covered under warranty, so its a free fix either way, i was just curious how commmon this was. My car has 40000 and is 2 years old. Good thing I havent gotten the water pump pulley upgrade yet.

I have a 2007 Hatchback, about 32000 miles on it, and no problem yet. i'll be curious to see what other folks have to say, though.

Hi

If the water pump need replacing it won´t put a check light in the display. It will leak water and perhaps it´s not very much, but when it´s on the guarantee it doesn´t matter.
I work at Toyota and I think we have replaced only one on the guarantee on a Toyota Yaris.

Regards Steven.

Water pump failure is not uncommonon the 2004-2006 Scion Xb's. If you check over on Scion life you will see it is actually quite common. In fact on my 2005 Xb with 59,000 mile is starting to show a little dried coolant "crust" under the weep hole, so mine is on it's way out too.

PS- Yaris and Xb have the same motor, though I'm not sure the water pump is identical...

Surprised they covered it. IIRC the water pump does not consist of the "powertrain", thus falling under the bumper-to-bumper warranty (which should have expired with that kind of mileage).

Ha, don't know too many folks who actually get those (as they are usually a rip-off).

I'm not going to tell you it's been hundreds of thousands of miles with no problems, because I don't want to jinx myself. ;)
