I bought my Ram 2500 new, and knew about the drag link issue when I bought it. It's only been to the dealer twice.Both times were for oil changes during the first year. I couldn't pass up the deal. Each time they asked if I wanted the drag link done, as per the recall. I told them under no circumstances were they to weld anything. When I got it home after purchasing it, I got under it and checked it. Sure enough, both jam nuts were loose. I backed them off and applied some lock tite, and torqued them. They havent budged. There's no reason they can't fix the problem correctly at this point. The covid excuse is getting old.
