Advice, please

I received a letter from Triumph this week that said, paraphrasing,  "Our 
records indicate your Sprint ST has not had the recalled fuel sender 
replaced. This could cause a fire blah blah please do it immediately.

They are right I have not replaced it because it hasn't leaked and the 
replacements that are available 1) don't fix the other problem - inaccuracy 
of fuel gage, and 2) the replacements were faulty, too, in the beginning 
anyway.  As you can see from Jez's post above replacements have been less 
than a sure fix. And mine isn't broken.

The accuracy of the fuel gauge is nbd to me, I'm accustomed to how it 
reads. Actually IT IS RELIABLE in that once you learn what the needle means 
in a particular spot that doesn't vary from tank to tank.

Should I have it swapped?
