From a friend in Japan , these Saltigas are on recall :

10'SALTIGA-3500H?059521-02551
10'SALTIGA-4000?059503-02721
10'SALTIGA-4000H?059523-03981
10'SALTIGA-4500?059505-04001
10'SALTIGA-4500H?059525-04281
10'SALTIGA-5000?059507-04041
10'SALTIGA-5000H?059527-05441
10'SALTIGA-6000GT?059529-01451
10'SALTIGA-6500?059511-01791
10'SALTIGA-6500H?059531-02651
10'SALTIGA-7000H DF?059532-00301

Not sure if only JDM products but those who bought Saltiga directly from Japan may be advised to check the serial number .

Spoke to Daiwa Australia, it's only Jdm models.  The magnetic fluid is a different type to Aus model reels.
If you have a Jdm model Daiwa Aus Service centre can replace the fluid.

Why on earth would they use a different fluid for JDM versus international reels!?
If it swims; I want to catch it!

With the amount of grey market imports around in many different countries, the fail-safe to is to reference the serial number. That's really good info Jon.
