A changed user agent on a browser is pretty small, it wouldn't surprise me if Google didn't email for things like that.

If Chrome's UA gets updated from say "Chrome 45.1.1.1.1 WebKit" to "Chrome 45.1.1.2.0 WebKit" it shouldn't really care. To be more clear in the case of changing browsers it detects this chnage via cookies, not by UA string.
