I took my car to five star Dodge in warner robins, ga to have the recall (R61) repairs done to the vehicle. While the dealership had my car they called and told me that they did the recall but my ABS (anti lock brake system) light was still on which is what the recall is for and they would look at it but it would cost me the diagnostic fee if I didn't get the repairs done or they would charge me for the repairs. Why should I have to pay for repairs for a problem that was recalled on the vehicle? I don't understand.

I received notice of recall for antilock brake system for my vehicle (VIN: [xxx]). I requested service from triangle Chrysler de ponce 2616 ponce by pass ponce, pr 00728 787-812-4025 they accepted the vehicle for service, February 19, 2016 in the morning. In the afternoon, they called me to say that the lights that indicated problems with the ABS system will not turn off if a sensor is not replaced, which cost is $115. I dont agree and are not satisfied by their explanation. I understand that if the problem of the recall caused the signal advice, it should be repaired. They say that the recall covers the module but not the sensor. I requested a review of the dealers decision to mopar and they never answered. I am including the dealer job service, and a photo of the lights in the vehicle panel. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
