| Description of the problem | We contacted west brothers chrysler dealership in sullivan, mo in feb. 2015 due to multiple recalls on the jeep. They were aware the jeep was not running, we were told to tow it to dealership on feb 26, 2015 and that all parts would be there in 2 to 3 weeks, i agreed to pay for a diagnostic test if the jeep still would not start after recall was complete. I was told diagnostic test could not be done until after the p57 recall was complete. After several months of being told parts would be in i received a phone call from joe boulware on july 23, 2015 stating we had one day to move the jeep or it would be towed. He said he had spoke with my son (the previous owner) on several occasions telling him to move jeep. This was false as my son was incarcerated all the dates he gave. We met with general manager who said we were not welcome to do business there anymore due to my health issues and accusations made by joe boulware, they refused to do recalls on this jeep or on another chrysler truck i own that needs a safety recall done. In our presence, but not on speaker phone the general manager telephoned chrysler to inquire when p57 part would be in, he identified himself using my sons name who is in the missouri department of corrections instead of his own, he told us the help line informed him they had no estimated date for part to be released, when i spoke with chrysler they found record of his call on 8-18-15 but information would have been false as part became available 8-14-15. I filed complaint with chrysler and they issued the dealership a red letter complaint. |
