Description of the problem | Truck broke down when driving city street normal conditions. Drive shaft fell off and broke in two. Related to safety recall n08 - rear axle pinion nut opened april 2013. Extensive damage done to truck, $13k or so in parts alone or more than truck value. Had my truck since june 2020, just now informing me they will not cover any damages caused by the safety recall issue (only the recall repairs which is minimal). Do i have any recourse with chrysler? Are they correct in their handling or do they owe me some kind of fair settlement payout since the damages are worth more than the truck value (trade in around $12k). |
