| Description of the problem | Rec'd notice from fca regarding recall, s61/nhta16v-688. After contacting fca, was informed that part required would be available by 1 june 2017. Have yet to hear from fca nor could a rep tell me when part would be available. Situation is such that the affected vehicle can not be sold or traded and is loosing value. Vehicle is parked and essentially unusable as it could produce more harm than good to myself or others if used and an incident occurs. Fca is not responding as they stated or as i requested nor have they provided reimbursement for diagnostic work done a local dealer as they initially promised. |
