I received a Recall Notice on my 2021 RAM 1500 today

I received a recall notice today. Anybody else receives this? Is this "Old News"? I also wonder if this is what happened to the lady that had a complete engine shut down in this thread: Total engine replacement...Jesus take the wheel...

I heard a few got the recall done before getting the letter.
Got my letter in the mail yesterday, will try to get it done this week.
My truck has worked flawlessly and was on the fence but since it is a safety issue I will just go and get it taken care of

If it is 87A, my brother had in performed, and picked up 3MPG. He had been complaining about the truck downshifting radically on hills before, and said it fixed that too.

37A - its what's on the letter

Probably right. it's been a couple days. I have a bad memory but I'm sure it ended with a 7A. Anyway, it had to do with the over rich running. It also sends bad info to the trans controller. I talked to him earlier today, and he is on a trip from northern Mi, to N.C., and as of driving south of Columbus, he was now getting 23 MPG on the trip.

My truck randomly quit on me a few weeks ago, just died while driving low speed, threw itself in park, and slammed on the emergency brake. I got my letter last week, and it was going in the shop for other work, so I'm having them do that too while it's there.

I hope this truck starts acting right, currently it's the best looking piece of garbage I've ever owned. It leaks, it stalls, the GPS doesn't work, the hood fills with water and sloshes around, the brakes moan like crazy. If rates were still at zero percent I'd sell this thing and buy something else, anything else. It's not been a great ownership experience. So far this year it's been in the shop almost six weeks. Dropped if off again today, hopefully it won't take too long.

It's a 21 5.7 e-torque. That's the only vehicles in the recall.
