    I have notifications of these various recalls and have tried to get these corrected or at least checked out at the dealership where i purchased my truck. First i was told that appointments were now required. Then i was advised that 1st come/1st served was now required and full schedules are usual. Now i received another notification. I care for my ram, but my time is also important.
