Default Safety recall notice for 2010 Ram 1500

Just got a recall notice for Hemrietta. If anyone else has a 2010 Ram 1500 and haven't received one be on the lookout. It says:

Safety recall K15
Master cylinder brake tube(s)

"The brake tube(s) on your vehicle may have been built with an improperly formed flare that could cause brake fluid leakage. A brake fluid leak could increse the vehicle's stopping distance and cause a crash without warning."


The included models are the Dodge Nitro, Ram 1500 truck, Jeep Liberty and Wrangler (all 2010.)

Yep, it arrived yesterday. Oh joy. An opportunity to let the dealer flunkies f around under my hood and get brake fluid on my paint. Ugh.

My door sticker says "Build 1 - 10". Safe assumption that means Jan 2010 or not? Mine's not coded the same as "myHEMI's", wonder why if both 2010s? Am I reading the wrong place, getting it off door sticker.

Look on your silver sticker for the MDH, That stands for Month-Day-Hour. Anywho, I entered my vehical on dodge.com and it reports no recalls
