Steering Linkages Problems of Dodge Ram 1500

My steering wheel makes a clicking sound when you turn the wheel. I was told by the dealership that there is only a recall for this on some models. If my vehicle is doing what the recall is stating and I have the vehicle that the recall is on why is it not replaceable free of charge? this makes no sense to me. Nhtsa # 09e001000, component : steering linkages. Is out there and I cannot get this replaced under the recall rules. Please explain this to me.

Fully turning the steering wheel right or left causes the tire(s) to rub on the shock hangar. This shreds rubber off the inside sidewalls of the tires. I ruined 2 tires and was lucky one or both did not blow out and cause an accident while I was driving. I have not had it fixed yet. I'm trying to find out if this has been reported before, so I can contact Dodge.
