Ram Drag link Recall
If the dealer finds that your drag link is alright, they will spot weld the nuts. My question is does this interfere with future front end alignments? It just doesn't seem like a good thing.

All it effects is centering of the steering wheel. There is a lot of discussion on this subject on the TDR.
Bottom line be sure the two nuts are tight and don't worry about it until they have replacement parts.
I am not sure that is the best advice. There must be an issue withe the design or materials/machining if they are going to lengths to spot weld until a safer version is available. Just because it is tight at the beginning of the drive is no guarantee it cannot loosen up during a drive. I wouldn’t be comfortable giving the advice to ignore something the manufacturer admits is a safety issue.
Thats my "OPINION" and i'm sticking to it!
The steering wheel will start moving off center. So it does not magically fall apart!!! Simply keep an eye on it.
My wheel was re centered when aligned at 10k or so and 55k or so later my nuts are still tight.
