Here's a link to where the TSB was posted. I don't think there's officially a "recall".

Exhaust manifold recall

I keep waiting for an actual recall to come out.

They changed both of mine out without any problems.

Have you had any problems with them after it was fixed

Yes. They failed again about 100,000m later (I think), and were again replaced - this time under my extended warranty.

Do the exhaust manifolds fall under emissions warranty? Someone in another thread said they do.

I just had both manifolds replaced, They covered them under the 5 year/60K powertrain warranty. Didn't cost me anything out of pocket

Nice. Doesn’t look like they’re cover under the 8 year 80k miles warranty.

Don`t quote me but I think they should be covered under the 80K federal emissions warranty?

Not according to the manual. Maybe that changed

Unless you want it to happen again go with headers or this:
Hemi exhaust manifolds

Do they sell a set that will fit 2019 and newer DT body style? Mine are cracked again at 70k miles after they have been replaced under warranty at 40k miles.

Hemi exhaust manifolds

and pay as much to get installed?

when i clicked on check the fit i get this
Will not fit the 2019 and newer DT body style Ram 1500.

I just took my truck in on Monday and they diagnosed a cracked manifold on the passenger side. It's quite obvious on a cold start. Unfortunately, the parts are on backorder and have no estimated arrival. It will be covered under the 5-year/100,000km. My 5 years will be up in May of 2025 and I currently have 82,000km on the odometer.

So I'm starting to suspect I'm having some kind of exhaust issue but I'm really not sure.

When I drove my truck to work yesterday I got my usual 16-17 mpg on the highway. When i got in to head home i was getting 11-12 which is pretty extreme difference in my opinion. I do not have a check engjne light on or anything and there isn't a loud tick that you can hear from inside the truck. When I opened the truck with the engine running it did seem like there was a minor tick on the passenger side but since this is my first Ram I wasn't sure if it was the famous Hemi tick that I hear about.

If the manifold is cracked, does the MPG fall like mine did? What else would tell me (a person who is not a mechanic by any means) that it is indeed a manifold issue?

I would suspect it would need to be a really large crack to affect mpg that much

Add me to the growing list…. I noticed it ticking/sounding weird about a month ago.

My truck has 63,300 miles on it and the dealer won’t cover it.

I’m trying to decide which shorty headers to install to hopefully solve it permanently.

Which ones are you going with? From what I’ve seen a lot of shorties break welds.
