not sure what you meant but are you saying the coolant itself is corroding the tanks and causing leaks?
According to the bulletin:

"CAUSE
Aluminum corrosion in the charge air intercoolers, or in the radiator for the low temperature cooling is causing an unfavorable chemical reaction to the coolant."
Why wouldn't this be a type of recall?
