I have received several recall notices for recall N28/13V-234, every time I receive a notice I contact my dealer nyle maxwell Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep of taylor Texas. And every time I am told that they have no parts for the repair, and they don't expect any parts in. They don't try to order the parts or schedule a appointment. And I am told by the service personel that I can keep checking in and maybe I will get lucky and they will have the parts. This is unacceptable, they either need to fix it or stop telling me there is a problem that they are going to fix.

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.

I have received several notices about the N28 transmission oil cooler tube recall and have not had any luck at the dealer getting my recall repairs completed. Each time I go in for service I ask about the status and each time I'm told there are no parts available. I was also told that the parts for the recall are on back order and the dealer only gets 2 kits in each month. I was told that I am in line for the repair but they could not tell me where I am in line or how long it will be before the repair is even possible.
