Reported at 32,000 miles, August 2013 Crash

Well driving I started to hear a clanking noise and pulled over. I looked under my car to see a piece of metal hanging under my car. Long story short my front driver side spring snapped and punctured my wheel. I took it to the dealership to have it fixed and was told there was a recall on that part, after doing some investigation they told me even tho there was a recall on my exact make and model my VIN wasn't one of the cars being covered. Is there anything I can do to fight this!?
