Default 2004 Lower Control Arm Recall

Has anyone had this done? I check my VIN and it seems to apply to my car but I haven't received a recall notice. Have you?

C5-DSW,

Thanks

I had the problem and received several notices before I actually had it repaired. (I really didn't want to get it done, but a couple of times when I was going around a corner I thought about the washers breaking and decided to just get it fixed) Below is a link to what they have to do and the VINs that were involved in the recall:

If your car has been recalled, you can just take it in - even if you don't have a notice...
