The fix was to weld 2x2 under the existing tongue rails. The fix requires cutting some of the metal under the rail where it goes under the box.
The original frame was 1/8", the fix was with 3/16" tubing
Some had the thinner steel, others had the heavier gauge steel. Mine has the heavier steel. The prescribed fix in the official recall letter was to add 2x2 under the rails if they were of the thinner steel.
I bought mine in 2006 and it did not qualify for the recall because of having the heavier steel. All these years later I am still using it without trouble.
