| Description of the problem | Week after week i wait to have the recall work done on my vehicle, and the local dealership repeatedly explains that the replacement parts are unavailable from the maker. Chrysler corporate offices confirmed that the parts are unavailable and that there is a long list of people waiting for their parts. With this extremely unsafe condition of the ignition switch cutting off and the steering wheel locking and lack of power breaks, it is hard to believe that chrysler has spent nearly a year since the initial complaint and still cannot correct the issue. The recall is out, but it is impossible to get the problem fixed because they are not supplying parts to their dealerships. |
