No, but they'll try to blame mods if the recall isn't performed and then it breaks, if you've got mods that might effect the system that the recall pertains to...
The 2G DSMs had a recall for the front lower ball joints, they would get dirt inside the joint and over time it would wear out and fail. (then the suspension would collapse) I didn't know about the recall until the ball joint failed on my '95 Eclipse. Luckily for me it failed as I was pulling into a parking space, not 5 minutes after I pulled off of the highway where I was going ~70mph. The service manager tried to blame suspension mods that I didn't even have. The car was stock everywhere but under the hood.
