No need to RUN FAST.
As discussed here, standard procedure for a dealership service dept at that time:

It wouldn't worry me, but when I had a leaking IMS flange seal, I opted to have an independent shop replace the bearing since they were there anyway. I doubt that the owner of the '04 was presented this as an option.
