Default Recall

I just want to know where the recall list on this site came from. I just called the dealership and the 1800 number that was on the posting and they are unaware of any recall fitting this post. I even tried to give them the recall number and they said there is no such. I was just wondering. I own a 07 Ram and the recall says there is a problem with the drive shaft front yolk.

Default RE: Recall

Well I called the 1800 number that was on the recall for Dodge and the guy knew nothing. When I called the dealership they also knew nothing. If you have a inside contact PM me so I can try another way to see. I told the service manager that if the yolk breaks then I'll be in their with the truck and my attorney since they blew it off. I drive my family around in this vehicle.
