Source model text: WA45H7000AW/A2. Incident: Samsung washer has been going crazy when spinning and also leaking. It stopped pumping the water out. I took off the pump because I smelled something burning. When I took off the pump it was all wet and severely rusted and coroaded and looked like the electronics of it had been sunk under water in the ocean. While looking for a replacement pump I found that it had been recalled.
