I contacted the dealer for my recall repair. They advised there is a 200 person waiting list and they are only permitted to order 4 parts per week. At this rate, it will be almost a year before my vehicle is fixed. NHTSA requested to know if there were issues getting this part fixed - yes, there are issues. Thank you.

The head gasket leaked resulting in having to put in an entirely new engine. The dealer suggested that this was a known issue and that the gasket breaks in the corner. After the replacement, I was told that the manufacturer improved the gasket and I should not see this issue happen again. When the gasket blew, there was an immediate loss of power going down the expressway.
