In June 2015 I took car to freedom Dodge to have wireless ignition node replaced per the recall. Freedom Dodge claimed they didn't have the parts and wouldn't know until it came in. Furthermore they said they couldn't order the part. Freedom Dodge said they would call when the parts came in. It has now been six months and they have never called to tell us if the part is in. I called several times to check and they claim they haven't received the parts.
