I received the recall N28 early this year, I call the dealer and they don't received the part at this day ("the factory don't send the part to us (dealer) for complete the recall"), 7 month and the problem isn't repaired. For all Chrysler dealers in puerto rico.

I keep receiving N28 safety recall notices, and every time I call my dealer to schedule an appointment, they inform me that Chrysler is not sending them enough parts and I am on a waiting list. It has been at least 8 months and I have still not have the service done to correct this recall.

I have received safety recalls back to January of this year on getting a transmission oil cooler tube on the vehicle repaired. I have contacted the dealership every time and multiple times between notices. I was put on a long waiting list. During the past almost 7 months one time they did have the part and did schedule me for an appointment to have it repaired but I had to miss the appointment due to another conflict. I called right away to reschedule and they informed me they would have to use the part on another Jeep then. That was over 2 months ago when they then told me I was number 6 on the list and it would be about 2 weeks not 2 months. This is the egolf dealership in hendersonville, nc.

Safety recall N28/NHTSA 13V-234. Notified the dealer 4 months ago that I received a recall. They have ordered the part but still have not received it. They state that Chrysler only ships them the parts for one repair a month. If they sold only 12 Jeep a month over the 2 years the recall spans that will take them 288 years to get all the repairs done.

Recall N28 was issued in September 2013 but parts are still not available at my dealer, they said Chrysler only gives them 2-3 replacement parts per month and they have 100+ on the waiting list so I may never get the part fixed.

Chrysler has recalled my Jeep: Safety recall N28/NHTSA 13V-234, transmission oil cooler tube. My dealer lucas Chrysler and Jeep, 1624 New Jersey 38, lumberton, NJ 08048, told me that Chrysler issues one part for this recall every 2 weeks. They also told me that they have a list of over 25 customers who need to have this recall performed. At that rate it would take me close to a year to have this dangerous condition corrected. I drive 120 miles/day to and from work. This dangerous condition is unacceptable.

This is specifically regarding the N28/NHTSA 13V-234 transmission oil cooler tube recall. We have waited for perhaps a year for the specified part to be delivered to the dealer. I am now faced with moving overseas with the military and cannot ship my vehicle until all recalls are remedied. This is unacceptable.
