AFTER RECEIVING SEVERAL POST CARDS TO GET THE AIRBAG RECALL, I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DADELAND CHRYSLER/JEEP ON MARCH 12, 2019. AFTER KEEPING THE CAR THE WHOLE DAY I WAS TOLD MY CAR DID NOT QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL, THE SERVICE MGR AND I SPOKE WITH CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE WHO REFUSE TO APPROVE THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT, AND THE DEALER DID NOT DO THE WORK BECAUSE IT WAS NOT GOING TO BE REIMBURSED. SINCE THEN I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL CALLS FROM CHRYSLER AND EACH TIME I HAVE EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED, THEN I AM TOLD THEY WILL CHECK AND GET BACK TO ME AND I NEVER HEAR FROM THEM AGAIN. BOTTOM LINE, CHRYSLER CORP REFUSES TO DO THE AIRBAG RECALL AND I NEED YOUR AGENCY TO GET INVOLVED IN THIS MATTER. I HAVE ALSO FILE A COMPLAIN WITH THE FLORIDA HIGHWAY SAFETY AND MOTOR VEHICLE BUT I DOUBT THEY WILL TAKE ACTION ON THE MATTER. I HOPE YOU FORCE CHRYSLER TO CARRY OUT THE MANDATED RECALL AND FINE THEM FOR REFUSING TO CARRY OUT THE NHSA ORDER. I HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU REGARDING THE OUTCOME OF MY COMPLAIN.

TAKATA ARE ALL COMPLAINT OF MINE IS THAT IT HAS PLACED ME A UNSAFE DRIVING STATE FOR 3 YEARS WITHOUT THE ABILITY OF A CAR REPLACEMENT UNTIL THIS PROBLEM WAS SOLVED. OTHER DEALERSHIPS THAT HAD AN AIRBAG PROBLEM DID PRESUMING THAT THEY REALLY CARED. FOR A LONG TIME, I HAVE BEEN DRIVING SCARED. DOING MY BEST TO GET TO A CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP NOW.. IF I COULD HAVE TRADED IT I WOULD HAVE.

I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY LOCAL DEALER, I REQUESTED A RENTAL CAR SO I COULD GET AROUND AND GET TO WORK WHILE THE REPAIRS ARE BEING MADE. I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANYWHERE. I REQUESTED THE RENTAL AT NO CHARGE SINCE THIS ISN'T MY DOING, ITS NO FAULT OF MY OWN AND NOW I HAVE TO TAKE TIME TIME OUT OF MY BUSY DAY TO BRING IT THE CAR TO GET FIXED. ITS A REAL HASSLE. THEY CAN SIMPLY PROVIDE ME A VEHICLE TO USE WHILE THE REPAIRS ARE GOING ON. I WILL NOT SCHEDULE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT UNTIL I RECEIVE A VOUCHER OR COMPENSATION FOR A RENTAL. MOPAR HAS GOT NOTHING ACCOMPLISHED HERE EITHER.

I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE AIRBAG PROBLEM ON MY VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY ABOUT A YEAR AGO OR LONGER. I WAS FIRST INFORMED THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I WAS LATER INFORMED THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE & TO CONTACT MY LOCAL SERVICE DEALER. WHEN I CONTACTED THEM, I WAS TOLD THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PARTS BUT WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY GOT THEM. I NEVER GOT A CALL FORM THEM. WHEN I CALLED AGAIN TODAY, I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD ONLY SERVICE MY CAR DURING WEEKDAYS (ALTHOUGH THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS OPEN ON BOTH SATURDAYS & SUNDAY'S), WHICH I AM UNABLE TO DO BECAUSE I WORK AND ONLY HAVE THAT VEHICLE FOR TRANSPORTATION. THIS CONSTITUTES AN UNREASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME & THEIR UNWILLINGNESS TO FIX MY VEHICLE ON A WEEKEND FURTHER DEMONSTRATES THE CHRYSLER SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS ACTING IN BAD FAITH IN REMEDYING THE RECALL.
