2014 RAM 2500 Structurebody Problems

I HAVE A 2014 DODGE RAM2500 TRUCK, THERE WAS A SAFETY RECALL ON THE WELDING ON THE FRONT SUSPENSION TRACK BAR FRAME BRACKET THAT WAS IMPROPERLY WELDED DURING THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS. THE FIX WAS TO HAVE A BRACKET PLACED WITH ONE 60-70MM LONG M10 BOLT WITH 1.5 PITCH THREADS, ONE M10X1.5 PITCH THREAD NUT, THREE M10 FLAT WASHERS I BROUGHT MY TRUCK IN BECAUSE IT START POPPING EVERY TIME IN TURNED EITHER RIGHT OR LEFT I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL FIX HAD EXPIRED THERE NO WARRANTY ON THIS TO FIX IT NOW. SO I'M CONFUSED IT A SAFETY ISSUE AND NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL?? BECAUSE THE RECALL FIX HAS NO WARRANTY THE WARRANTY IS ONLY FOR 2 YEARS. SO I BOUGHT A TRUCK NEW WITH DEFECTS AND IT MY PROBLEM THAT WE'RE NOT KNOWN AT THE TIME FROM THE MANUFACTURE. NOT SURE HOW THIS IS RIGHT OR FAIR...

HAS HAPPENED TO ME AT LEAST 8-10 TIMES OVER PAST COUPLE YEARS. YESTERDAY I HAD CARGO THAT NEARLY FELL OUT. I HAVE A TAILGATE ASSIST AND A COVER SO I CANT SEE WHEN IT DROPS.
