Anyone had these recalls fixed?

Hi I'm about to buy a '03 Evo VII and did a carfax on the car. The carfax states that the following recalls have been issued:

Recall #C0401H FMVSS Certification Label
Recall #C0409Z Lancer/Outlander Replace fan controller

Has anyone had these done? What is involved here/ what needs fixing exactly?

If I call my local Mitsu dealer and book the car in will they fix the recalls for me for free?

I've never dealt with recalls and I'm unsure how they work.

Thanks,

Karl

What is the fan controller? Is it the heater fan or the radiator fan?

I'm sorry if that's a dumb question.

I stopped by the dealer for parts and they did the label thing while I was there. Now, I have another notice saying they need to replace the label again. Huh?
