I received a recall notice in November of 2015 about my airbags so I immediately called dick hannah Jeep who told me that the parts weren't released yet and that someone would call me. I had forgotten about it because they said they would call me once they had it. Last week I was going through my paperwork and found the recall so I contacted Jeep on twitter who said the parts were in fact available.so I told them and they still said that the parts were not available so I told them that makes no sense Jeep said that they are and they checked and then here we are 10/15/16 finally getting it done. So I have been driving this car since then and I could have died.

I have been waiting for this part to be repaired on my vehicle for one year now. After waiting for so long, the part finally makes it to the dealer and the dealer after repeatedly so many times telling me that they will call me as soon as it arrives. One day I decide to stop by to check if the part has arrived, I find out that the part shows on their system as it arrived 10 days ago and nobody had the courtesy of calling to let me know so I can have my vehicle fixed. All this happened at the Dodge dealer in naples, fl.
