I HAVE RECEIVED TWO SAFETY RECALLS FOR THIS VEHICLE RECALL NUMBER N49/NHTSA 13V-529. THE RECALL IS TO REPLACE THE LEFT TIE ROD BALL STUD ON THE STEERING LINKAGE. I RECEIVED THE FIRST RECALL NOTICE IN JANUARY 2014. I IMMEDIATELY WENT TO MY DODGE DEALER TO HAVE THE WORK PERFORMED. DODGE STATED THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO ORDER THE PARTS. SIX MONTHS LATER I AM STILL WAITING FOR THE PARTS. TODAY I RECEIVED THE SECOND SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I CALLED CHRYSLER RECALL ASSISTANCE AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD TAKE AN ADDITIONAL THREE TO FIVE MONTHS BEFORE THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. CHRYSLER IS PLAYING RUSSIAN ROULETTE WITH PEOPLES' LIVES. CHRYSLER'S CLAIM THAT IT TAKES NINE MONTHS TO A YEAR TO OBTAIN THE PARTS IS PATENTLY FALSE.

I AM SEEING A LOT OF THE SAME COMPLAINTS WITH THIS RECALL. I AM GETTING THE SAME STORY THAT THEY ARE WAITING ON PARTS AND CANNOT PERFORM THIS RECALL NOW. THE DEALER DOES NOT KNOW WHEN PARTS ARE TO COME IN. MY CONCERN IS, ITS ALREADY BEEN WAY MORE THAN A FEW MONTHS SINCE I WENT INTO THE DEALER AND HAD THEM VERIFY MY TRUCK NEEDED THE RECALL. I DON'T DRIVE MY TRUCK ON A DAILY BASIS BUT WHEN I AM USING IT I AM USUALLY HAULING MY DUMP TRAILER. I DON'T WANT TO BE THE CAUSE OF ME OR SOMEONE ELSE GETTING INJURED WHEN I KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE TRUCK LIKE THE STEERING MAY FAIL. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THERE CANNOT BE ANY PARTS TO REPLACE THIS YET. *TR

INSTEAD OF DOING THE RECALL THEY SIMPLY LOOKED UNDER THE TRUCK AND VERIFIED IT WAS ONE THAT NEEDED THE RECALL, AND WOULD PUT ME ON THE LIST TO HAVE IT DONE. STATED THEY WOULD CONTACT ME WHEN PARTS COME IN. THIS WAS OVER 6 MONTHS AGO AND EVERY TIME I TALK TO THEM THEY SAY THEY ARE REPLACING PARTS AS FAST AS THEY COME IN. I JUST RECEIVED A SECOND LETTER FROM CHRYSLER TODAY STATING THIS IS AN IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL AND SHOULD BE DONE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I CALLED DEERY BROTHERS AGAIN THIS MORNING AND GOT THE SAME RESPONSE THAT THEY ONLY GET 2-3 SETS OF...

PLEASE TELL ME WHY IT IS TAKING SO LONG TO GET A PART IN A SHOP FOR A RECALL? I CONTACTED 3 DIFFERENT DODGE DEALERSHIPS AND THEY ALL STATE THAT THEY ARE ONLY GETTING 2 PARTS A WEEK FOR A RECALL. I HAVE WAITED OVER 6 MONTHS TO BE CALLED FOR A REPLACEMENT. I AM ON A WAITING LIST AND EACH TIME I FOLLOW UP I GET TOLD THE SAME THING. SORRY WE DON'T HAVE THAT PART. IF THIS IS A RECALL THEN DODGE SHOULD HAVE THESE IN ADEQUATE SUPPLY IF THEY ARE GOING TO ISSUE OUT LETTERS TO OWNERS ASKING THEM TO DO THEIR PART TO MAKE THE VEHICLE SAFE.

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE N49 FROM CHRYSLER (NHTSA 13V-529) APPROXIMATELY MARCH 18, 2014. THIS IS IN REGARD TO A STEERING DEFECT ON OUR 2011 RAM 2500HD TURBO DIESEL TRUCK. ACCORDING TO THE RECALL NOTICE THE PROBLEM IS "THE LEFT TIE ROD BALL STUD ON YOUR TRUCK MAY FRACTURE UNDER CERTAIN DRIVING CONDITIONS. THIS COULD CAUSE A LOSS OF DIRECTIONAL CONTROL AND/OR CRASH WITHOUT WARNING." THIS SOUNDS LIKE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE TO ME. SO WE TOOK IT INTO THE NEAREST DODGE DEALER ON MARCH 19, 2014. AFTER EXAMINING THE TRUCK THEY SAID IT DOES NEED THE REPAIR, BUT THEY HAVE NO PARTS. SO THEY PUT US ON A WAITING LIST AND THAT IT WOULD BE ABOUT 30 DAYS. IT IS NOW TWO MONTHS LATER AND WE ARE TOLD THAT WE ARE STILL ABOUT 30 DAYS OUT ON THE WAITING LIST. THE RECALL NOTICE SAYS THAT IF THE DEALER FAILS OR IS...
