Default Coolant lines recall/warranty details?

Similar to the cracked dash, I hear this coolant line (rubber) was a known issue that was setup in a similar recall/enhanced warranty. I am planning to see if mine was replaced but if not, would like to get it done for free if possible. Can someone share feedback on this line and what would be best option to get replaced for free? I believe there are 2 lines, one that sits under radiator near exhaust and another near the back of engine?

Default Replaced

I have a 2008 RX with 69,000 miles on it and plan on keeping it for a long time. So when I heard about this issue a couple years ago I called my dealer, 100 miles away. Explained I planed on keeping it and wanted it checked out. He kind of hinted they would take care of it. Made the appointment for that and an oil change. They charged me for the oil change and nothing on the line. Invoice said it needed replacing but I never saw it and it hadn’t been leaking. Very happy with them. Bonus I got to take a LC 500 for a test drive. Fantastic Car.

The dealership I bought car from acts as if its not a necessary replacement. I asked them to look to see if it was replaced but they gave me a hassle just for that. I'll just go check and confirm it has been done but I thought there were 2 places where this line was. One under radiator and somewhere hard to reach in the engine area?
