Consumer Description

MY TRUCK HAS THE P77NHTSA 14V-796 RECALL NOTICE (REAR AXLE PINION NUT). I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHEN I RECEIVED THE 1ST NOTICE (NEARLY 2 YEARS AGO) AND WAS TOLD THE PART REQUIRED WAS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE BUT I WOULD BE PUT ON A WAITING LIST AND BE CONTACTED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. I HAVE CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER AGAIN EACH TIME I HAVE RECEIVED ANOTHER NOTICE FOR THIS SAME RECALL AND EACH TIME I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE SAME RESPONSE THAT THE PART IS STILL UNAVAILABLE. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW A POTENTIALLY DEADLY ISSUE SUCH AS THIS REAR AXLE PINION NUT FAILING CANNOT BE ADDRESSED IN 2 YEARS TIME. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS CHRYSLER'S LACK OF CONCERN OR MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD AGAIN THIS MORNING THAT THE PART WOULD BE ORDERED SPECIFICALLY FOR ME BUT THAT IT WAS STILL NATIONALLY UNAVAILABLE. WHO IS RESPONSIBLE IF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO ME OR MY FAMILY OCCURS DUE TO THIS LACK OF RESPONSE FROM CHRYSLER? ANY HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
