And in related news, testing dummies are increased in weight, to reflect fatter, and fatter Americans.

The video I saw indicated the test dummies were being made heavier, from 170 lbs. to 270 lbs.

2006 - 2008 Dodge Ram 4500.
No such thing as a 2006 Ram 4500.
I have a 2008 Ram 4500 and i think the first year for the Ram 4500/5500’s was 2007.

At 10,000+ pounds i’m not too worried. I have not seen a recall notice yet.

The model year range is from 2001 to 2007 and the airbag part was made somewhere in Asia. Only a small percentage of the parts are likely to have this problem should the air bag be triggered in a crash.

If you own one of these vehicles it is a concern, but one you could tolerate for a while. The recall will take a long time to fulfill as the numbers are huge. Many of these vehicles will be scrapped due to age or not worth repairing. The manufacturers may consider a rebate amount on a trade or purchase as another way to do the recall.
