Consumer Description

T79/NHTSA 17-821 RECALL.. JUST WONDERING IF AND WHEN THE FIX MAY HAPPEN? IT HAS HAMPERED MY CHANCE OF SELLING IT DUE TO THE OPEN RECALL AND THE FACT OF NO GIVING DATE AS TO WHEN IT WOULD BE FIXED, DEALER WILL NOT BUY IT ( THE ONE WHO WOULD, WOULD ONLY GIVE A SMALL PERCENT OF IT VALUE) AND A BUYER BACKED OUT CAUSE OF THE TYPE OF SAFETY ISSUES IT IS. I SPOKE TO THE DEALER SHIP AND THEY HAVE SAID THAT THEY HAVE NOT BEEN GIVING ANY IDEAS OR A TIME FRAME WHEN FCA WOULD HAVE A FIX. JUST WONDERED WHAT IF ANY OPTIONS I MAY HAVE TO GET IT FIXED OR GET A SAFER VEHICLE. THANK YOU
