| Description of the problem | A recall was issued on these two parts, recall s 61, on october 1st 2016. I received no notification on this recall until i went to sell my car to a dealership on 12/19/2016. I called chrysler customer service and was told there will not be a remedy for this situation until april 2017. Jeep, and it's parent company, isn't displaying the type of urgency i should see associated with a recall that could cause physical harm to my wife or i, while operating the vehicle. Now, i'm stuck paying for a car i no longer need and will not drive because of the safety issue. |
