Consumer Description

I HAD TURNED INTO THE PARKING LOT AND THE LOWER BALL JOINT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE HAD BROKE. I HAD THIS TAKEN CARE OF BY A NON JEEP DEALER DUE TO SHORT ON FUNDS TO HAVE IT DONE BY A JEEP DEALER, AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED DID NOT KNOW JEEP WOULD HAVE COVERED THE COST OF THE REPAIRS SINCE THIS ISSUE WAS A RECALL ISSUE THAT HAD BEEN FIX BACK IN 2007. THIS JEEP I HAD PURCHASED USED IN DEC 2013. I HAD CALLED JEEP CORP TO CHECK ON RECALLS AFTER I HAD FIRST PURCHASED. FOUND THINGS WERE FIXED BUT WAS NOT TOLD THERE WAS A 10 YEAR WARRANTY ON THAT WORK THAT WAS DONE BACK IN 2007 BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER. IF I WOULD HAVE KNOW THAT AT THE TIME I HAD THIS ISSUE AGAIN ON JULY 26 2014 I WOULD HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE JEEP DEALER, BUT BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE A LOT OF MONEY I HAD IT FIXED BY ANOTHER AUTO REPAIR SERVICE. I WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE COST AT 534.40 I HAD TO PAY IN JULY 2014 FOR ISSUES WITH THE SAME THAT WERE RECALLED AND FIXED BACK IN 2007. I HAD CALLED TODAY TO FIND OUT WHAT I COULD DO AND WAS TOLD NOTHING NOW SINCE I HAD IT FIXED BY A NON JEEP DEALER. I REALLY THINK IT SHOULD BE REIMBURSED DO TO THE FACT I HAD TO HAVE THIS FIXED AFTER IT WAS RECALL AND FIXED BY A JEEP DEALER AND IT STILL BROKE. I HAVE THE RECEIPT FOR THE REPAIRS THAT WERE DONE JULY 2014. *TR
