THIS WEBSITE SYSTEM DOES NOT SEEM PARTICULARLY WELL-SUITED FOR THIS FEEDBACK. I HAVE RECEIVED REPEATED RECALL NOTICES FROM CHRYSLER REGARDING THE TRANSMISSION COOLER TUBE. NHTSA 13V-234. ON THOSE FORMS, IT REQUESTS THAT WE LOG ONTO SAFERCAR.GOV IF THE DEALER FAILS TO REPAIR THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME. I CANNOT FIND ANY PLACE TO REGISTER THAT COMPLAINT EXCEPT HERE. I HAVE RECEIVED A SERIES OF HARCOPY MAILINGS BETWEEN PERHAPS SEPTEMBER 2013 AND CURRENT (MAR 2014). THEY SUGGEST I CALL A LOCAL JEEP DEALER TO SCHEDULE A REPAIR. EACH TIME I CALL THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER, I GET A DIFFERENT RESPONSE, SUCH AS "WE ONLY HAVE ENOUGH PARTS TO REPAIR VEHICLES ON THE EAST COAST FIRST. WE WILL EVENTUALLY CALL YOU WHEN WE HAVE PARTS AVAILABLE TO REPAIR YOURS IN COLORADO" THE NEXT TIME, THE DEALER SAID THEY STILL DON'T HAVE PARTS, AND THAT I MUST JUST KEEP CALLING BACK EVERY WEEK OR SO TO SEE WHEN THEY ARRIVE. THE THIRD TIME I CALLED THEY ASSURED ME THAT JEEP WILL CALL ME AS SOON AS THEY ARE AVAILABLE. THE FOURTH TIME THE LOCAL DEALER SAID THEY HAD NO MECHANISM TO CONTACT ME WHEN PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE, AND THE BURDEN WAS INDEED ON ME TO KEEP CALLING. WHAT A STUPID SYSTEM. MY DAUGHTER ALSO HAS A JEEP (A 2003 GCHEROKEE). SHE HAS UNDERGONE SIMILAR HASSLES WITH PARTS NOT BEING AVAILABLE FOR MORE THAN A YEAR FOR A RECALL. EACH TIME SHE CALLS IT IS A DIFFERENT STORY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE NHTSA BELIEVES IS A "REASONABLE TIME". BUT IT SEEMS STUPID TO KEEP MAILING ME HARDCOPY RECALL NOTICES IF JEEP DOESN'T HAVE THE PARTS OR ABILITY TO MAKE THE REPAIR. AND WHEN I CALL JEEP, THEY SHOULD HAVE A TRUE AND CONSISTENT STORY ABOUT WHAT I NEED TO DO TO GET THE REPAIR COMPLETED. *TR

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION IN SEPTEMBER, 2013 WARNING THAT THE TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER TUBE MAY COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE POWER STEERING FLUID RETURN TUBE, CAUSING A LEAK AND POSSIBLY A FAILURE OR CRASH. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE AUTONATION DEALERSHIP ON 116TH AVE. IN BELLEVUE, WA A TOTAL OF THREE TIMES SINCE SEPTEMBER 2013 TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. IT IS NOW ALMOST MARCH 2014 AND IT STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THEY ARE PLACING ALL THE BLAME ON CHRYSLER FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO SUPPLY THE PARTS. I CALLED CHRYSLER THIS MORNING TO CONFIRM THE INSANE WAITING TIME FOR THE PARTS TO REMEDY THE RECALL. THE IDEA THAT IT TAKES IN EXCESS OF 5 MONTHS JUST TO GET PARTS FOR A SERIOUS RECALL ISSUE IS PREPOSTEROUS, AND THE LACK OF ACTION NEGLIGIBLE. *TR

THERE IS A POWER TRAIN RECALL ON MY JEEP. THE DEALERSHIP CANT GET THE PART IN. WE GOT THE NOTICE IN THE SUMMER. HOW LONG DO THEY HAVE TO FIX THIS, AND WHAT STEPS CAN I TAKE NOW?

IN EARLY JANUARY, I CONTACTED MY LOCAL CHRYSLER DEALER TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE RECALL. AT THAT TIME, I WAS INFORMED THAT ONLY 2 REPLACEMENT PARTS PER MONTHS WERE BEING SHIPPED TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SUPPORT THE RECALL NOTICE. WHEN I CHECKED BACK ON JANUARY 27, I WAS TOLD THAT I AM 28TH ON THE LIST, MEANING I WILL BE WAITING ANOTHER 14 WEEKS FOR MY PART TO BE INSTALLED. AS I UNDERSTAND THE NOTICE, THE POTENTIAL FAILURE OF THE TRANSMISSION MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH. HOW MANY CRASHES WILL IT TAKE BEFORE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IS NEEDED TO GAIN VISIBILITY TO THIS OBVIOUS LACK OF ATTENTION BY CHRYSLER? I WOULD EXPECT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS MONITORING THIS SITUATION, AND WILL ACT ON MY BEHALF TO QUICKLY REMEDY THIS SITUATION. *TR

SAFETY RECALL N28 / NHTSA 13V-234 IN OCTOBER OF 2013, I WAS MAILED THE ABOVE RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER. I WAS TOLD IN THE MAILING TO CONTACT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO SCHEDULE THE REPAIR. I DID THIS AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS HAD TO BE ORDERED AND WOULD BE A COUPLE OF WEEKS. BY DECEMBER 2013, NO RESPONSE FROM THE DEALERSHIP. IN CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP AT THAT TIME, THEY HAD NO RECORD OF MY CALL AND MY PARTS HAD NOT BEEN ORDERED. THEY SAID THEY WOULD PUT THE PARTS ON ORDER AGAIN FOR ME AND THAT THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE MID-JANUARY SINCE CHRYSLER IS RELEASING A LIMITED AMOUNT OF THE RECALLED PARTS EACH WEEK. AS OF FEBRUARY 4TH, 2014, I HAD NOT HEARD BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I CALLED THEM THE MORNING OF THE 4TH AND GOT THIS REPLY. THEY SAID MY PARTS ARE STILL ON ORDER AND THAT CHRYSLER IS STILL ONLY RELEASING A LIMITED AMOUNT OF THE REPLACEMENT PARTS. IT DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE TO ME IF A RECALL IS ISSUED AND THE MANUFACTURER SAYS THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE. THIS IS FRUSTRATING AND I FEEL LIKE I AM GETTING THE "RUN-AROUND". I WOULD APPRECIATE IF THE NHTSA COULD FOLLOW UP ON THIS AND FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON. *TR
