I have a 2014 dodge ram2500 truck, there was a safety recall on the welding on the front suspension track bar frame bracket that was improperly welded during the manufacturing process. The fix was to have a bracket placed with one 60-70mm long m10 bolt with 1.5 pitch threads, one m10x1.5 pitch thread nut, three m10 flat washers I brought my truck in because it start popping every time in turned either right or left I was told that the recall fix had expired there no warranty on this to fix it now. So I'm confused it a safety issue and not covered under the recall?? Because the recall fix has no warranty the warranty is only for 2 years. So I bought a truck new with defects and it my problem that we're not known at the time from the manufacture. Not sure how this is right or fair to the customer. It a safety issue not cosmetic. My truck only has 80.000 and it a diesel should last a long time. Please help thank you

Our 2014 dodge ram 2500 was turned in on 8/10/16 to our local dealership for repair work on the safety recall r46. After finding two cracks on the track bar brackets after initial inspection, our local dealership did not follow the proper recall instructions for repair work by failing to dispatch chrysler's welding team to their dealership first and instead used non-certified chrysler welders to make the recall repairs to our vehicle instead. Our local dealership initially asked us to sign a waiver releasing them of any wrong doing in order to get our vehicle back sooner (we declined). Once the chrysler welding team was notified and become involved with the local dealerships error they deemed the other non chrysler certified welders work unsatisfactory and therefore they would not stand behind the work that was handled by the local dealership. The local dealership admitted to their error and as a result were told to start over and replace the entire frame to our vehicle at the local dealerships expense before moving forward. To date, our vehicle has been in their possession for over 70 days and outside from them giving us two different loaner vehicles and the complete run around - we still have not received any documentation, official paperwork, or details with explanation of the exact repairs or work the dealership/corporate chrysler has done or showing what changes have been made to our vehicle despite our repeated requests, nor if our vehicle will be deemed safe again or when we'd get it back.
