Call the dealer with your Vin. They can tell you if your truck has been done.

99% chance it has been done by a previous owner. Most of them popped or where caught early.

Just call them and ask, thats what I did for my steering recall. They never called me...

If it was done, wouldn't he be getting notices in the mail? I keep getting notices to get it done. They sent a notice to the PO (friend's brother) and then they got my address after getting the vehicle registered.
