I got that for my truck last year about 1-2 months after I bought it, called a #, they check they last series of digits on the VIN and tell you if your veh is affected. Mine was not included on the recall and there are only 108 trucks actually affected.
The vehicles affected were manufactured between 5/30/07 through 6/4/07
Vin #'s between
