Description of the problem	Carried my jeep 4wd in for n23 recall. I use low lock all the time on the farm. Never had any prior problems. Was'nt going to even do the recall but got to thinking if problem did occur vehicle could roll on me while i was alone. Had recall done. That saturday tried low lock and got "service transfer case" on instrument panel. Could not select low. Tried many times with no success. Carried back to dealer. Said they had a few other vehicles with the same problem and they would take care of it. They called later saying it needed a selector which was on back order. Now its april 2014 and i'm still waiting for my jeep to be fixed. Was on the farm the other day while it was raining. Could not select low still. Jeep is a full time 4wd so it pulled ok, but if it were a little worse and needed low i would have gotten stuck. When will jeep own up and fix it? Another reason u. S. Car companies in trouble. Own up to problems and get some owner loyalty and they could make even more money. No one is responsible for anything anymore. I ordered this jeep new for its 4wd features, and 545rfe transmission. Now i can't get it working. Recall caused problem. Make them fix it!
