I HAVE RECEIVED AS OF TODAY 3 RECALL NOTICES ON MY VEHICLE CONCERNING SEAT BELTS. I VISITED MY DEALERSHIP AFTER RECEIVING THE FIRST NOTICE AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN THE PARTS CAME IN, I DIDN'T RECORD THAT DATE, I ASSUME IT WAS IN MAY. RECEIVED THE SECOND NOTICE IN JUNE AND WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP 6/25/2015 AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CONTACT ME IN JULY AND CORRECT BOTH RECALLS AT THE SAME TIME. RECEIVED THIRD NOTICE TODAY AND STILL HAVEN'T HEARD FROM MY DEALERSHIP. LOOKS LIKE CHRYSLER IS BETTER AT SENDING RECALL NOTICES THAN ACTUALLY CORRECTING PROBLEMS????? WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?

VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
LAST SPRING, APRIL 2015, I NOTICED THAT MY DEFROSTER WAS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. THE AIR BLOWS OUT OF THE A.C. VENTS, BUT NOT THE TOP DASHBOARD VENTS. I WENT ONLINE TO SEE: 1. HOW WIDESPREAD THE PROBLEM WAS (VERY COMMON IN OLDER VEHICLES; I BOUGHT MY TRUCK NEW IN 2004 FROM A DEALER THAT IS NOW OUT OF BUSINESS) 2. WHAT THE REACTION FROM DODGE WAS ( $1.500.00 TO REPAIR, EVEN THOUGH THEY MUST DO AN AIRBAG RECALL REPAIR IN THE SAME AREA) 3. HOW EXPENSIVE IT WOULD BE TO HAVE A PROFESSIONAL REPAIR JOB DONE ( EST. $1,200.00 - $1,500.00) 4. HOW EXPENSIVE/DIFFICULT IT WOULD BE TO ATTEMPT TO REPAIR MYSELF (UNIFORMLY INEXPENSIVE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE IN METAL FOR AROUND $50.00, NOT THE CHEAP DODGE PLASTIC) ( DO - IT - YOURSELF INSTRUCTIONS ARE COMPLEX, COUNTER-INTUITIVE, TIME CONSUMING...8 HOURS OR MORE, AND REQUIRE SPECIAL TOOLS AS WELL AS PHYSICAL DEXTERITY) I AM STUCK HAVING TO FIND $1,500.00 FOR A REPAIR, OR DRIVE IN THE FOG THIS WINTER WITH NO DEFROST. ALL BECAUSE OF A $1.500.00 REPAIR BILL FOR A $50.00 PART.

POWER TRAIN
UPON RETURNING HOME FROM A ROUND TRIP OF ABOUT 120 MILES A LARGE PUDDLE OF OIL WAS LOCATED IN THE DRIVEWAY WAS NOTICED UNDER THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL OF THE VEHICLE. A LARGE METAL PART HAD RIPPED A HOLE IN THE DIFFERENTIAL COVER CAUSING THE OIL TO LEAK OUT. THE METAL PART WAS STILL STICKING OUT OF THE COVER. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO A LOCAL SHOP AND IT WAS DISCOVERED THE CLIP RETAINING THE GEARS ONTO THE CARRIER IN THE DIFFERENTIAL HAD COME LOOSE AND BEEN THROWN THROUGH THE COVER, AND ALL THE FLUID LEAKED OUT. THE ENTIRE DIFFERENTIAL HAD TO BE REBUILT FOR ALMOST $1,800 AT MY OWN EXPENSE. THEN ABOUT A YEAR LATER CHRYSLER DID A RECALL ON THE SAME ISSUE, BUT I WAS TOLD MY TRUCK WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, WITH NO EXPLANATION. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AND I EXPECT TO BE REIMBURSED FOR MY OUT OF POCKET COSTS, AS WELL AS HAVING THE RECALL DONE TO KEEP FROM HAVING THE SAME THING HAPPEN AGAIN.
