Ummm.... You JUST got it? This has been out for a while now. Or has it now gone out to ALL 1500 owners, including the non snow belt ones?
Your info does not say what state you are in.
I figured it might go out to everyone after the snow folk got taken care of.

no notice on my '09 2wd, yesterday when I did the oil change, I inspected them. They look OK but they do have a twist that makes me wonder. The twist make the rubber boots look squeezed on one side. I'm in California so maybe they are rolling it out slowly to manage cash flow. Another trick i tried with the oil change, when removing the oil filter, I loosened the filter first, then I used a quart size freezer bag and slipped it over the filter and then removed it. I was able to get the filter off without any spillage.

The recall is for "cold weather states" only, so California probably isn't included. I know Georgia isn't included, but we DO get ice, snow, and freezing temperatures, especially in the North Georgia mountains, where we like to spend time. So, I have a pair of Moog tie rod ends I'm installing MYSELF !?!?! Can't say I agree with the recall procedure, especially on such a critical component.
Probabally not 6 months a year worth. I've got 52K on my truck with no TRE issues, so I wouldn't worry a whole lot about it.
