 Description of the problemI received recall notice n62/nhtsa 13v-528 regarding the steering linkage. I had a failure of the linkage in 2011 and it was repaired, but with the same defective parts. When i went to the dealer to have him check to see if the vehicle was included in the recall, after inspection he stated "yes". I was put on a long list and was told it might be june before the repair is completed due to unavailability of parts from chrysler. This is unacceptable to continue to operate the vehicle for this long with the potential that the defect could cause a loss of directional control and/or crash without warning." (quote directly from the recall notice). Chrysler needs to provide parts, and the dealers need to address this recall on a much more timely basis.
