Recall notice R25/nhtsa15V-313 was originally sent May 2015. I called both folsom lake Dodge and roseville Dodge to make an appointment to have it repaired. Both dealerships told me they would call back when the parts were available. Nothing for a year. Then I get another recall notice. It must not be very important. Absolutely ridiculous.
