Description of the problem	"electric auxiliary water pump for turbocharger recall" after i've shut the engine off there is a loud gurgling, bubbling noise under the hood. Over the past 7 weeks the noise has progressively gotten worse. A local bmw mechanic explained it is an auxiliary water pump for the turbos. I went to my local bmw dealership and was told recalls are vinn# specific and i would have to get this fixed on my own. I looked up recalls for 2012 x5m and some cars do have this safety recall listed. How can two similar vinn# not have the same related safety issues?

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
