I received a recall notice for the brake booster in may. i called my dealership in early june and they told me they were not receiving parts to fix this in a timely manner and i had to go on a 12 page waiting list. i called today to find out the status (2 months later) and they could not find me on the list and told me they would put me at the bottom again. this is not acceptable - when a recall is made, the manufacturer needs to have the parts available to service these vehicles and the dealership should have a better way of keeping track of things than a handwritten list. the dealer told me it isn't a problem since it's not yet freezing out, but if i have to wait months again as i already have - it will be winter and not safe to drive the vehicle. *tr

Received notice for nhtsa campaign number: 14v154000. took vehicle to dealer for inspection early june to have inspected to see if new brake booster system was needed or just shield. dealer informed only shield was needed. dropped vehicle off with an appointment before a road trip on august 12, 2014. i was informed after (around 8/16/14) i returned from road trip that brake booster and cylinder were actually needed and more time was needed for repair. dealer would not give me rental as none were available. finally got rental middle of following week after taking off work again. parts delivery eta expedited to 9/1/14. received call 8/28/14 indicating vehicle repair done. i was required to return rental before i could verify work on vehicle. returned rental, took delivery of vehicle. brake pedal went all the way to floor. almost caused me to hit two other vehicles in the dealer's parking lot. service advisor informed me this is normal with the recall replacement parts. i disagree so advisor has technician drive it and agree with me that it isn't normal. i am informed abs system needs to be bled a few more times. had to go home again and return later to pick up vehicle again. this time it was ok. completely unreasonable amount of time for parts, had to take off many days of work, and dealer had no empathy for situation. this is in addition to having to fight for a rental. now, a few days after having received my vehicle back, vehicle has loud tick on startup and while driving louder than radio, but i could not replicate at dealer. service advisor didn't seem to believe me about tick and i was told hemi engines typically tick. this is not my first vehicle or my first experience with a hemi engine. it isn't normal. no interest in servicing vehicle and informed me to bring it back when it was making the tick sound. i've tried twice and i can't get it to happen at dealer. *tr

I have had a brake recall notice for my vehicle for months! when i check with chrysler and the dealer parts to repair the brakes have not been released! i have now received a second recall for a possible short in the headliner that could cause a fire, again no parts to fix the problem. is the government going to look into this or am i wasting my time filling out messages on this site??? *tr

I received a brake booster safety recall notice in june - p14 nhtsa 14v-154. i called the dealer today august 4th to set up an appointment for the repair ([xxx], traverse city, mi). the dealer service rep informed me that they do not have parts, only get maybe three parts a week, and said i could be on a waiting list which now has over 30 people. i said at that rate it could be months before the safety recall is completed. he said he had no information about when the repair might happen and agreed that they (chrysler) were not being very responsive. i got on a waiting list and was told they would call me if they get any parts. what is the purpose of a safety recall if the manufacturer and dealer cannot provide any service or commitment? information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Jeep put out a recall notice on the brake booster for this vehicle in july 2014. the local dealership, family chrysler jeep, still, as of 9/9/2014 does not have the parts to correct the brake booster issue. the dealership attendant today 9/9/2014, [xxx], (male) stated that i would have to call back some time the end of september to hopefully get an appointment in october. this is not a an acceptable time frame when it comes to break failure. we have a newborn baby that must travel in this vehicle. speaking today directly with the chrysler group recall center 800-853-1403 they do not have an eta on when the dealerships will have the necessary parts to fix the breaks. over 2 months and still no parts from the chrysler group?? totally unacceptable by any standard. when i asked the call center rep to transfer me to a supervisor i was told, this call does not warrant a supervisor. serious. i hope they did record this phone call today to verify that i was told "this phone call does not warrant a supervisor". after a bit of a talking to and demanding that the rep tell me "no" i have been on hold for 25.03 minutes on my timer on the phone. i am sending this at the same time i am on hold with the chrysler group recall center. finally told that a supervisor will call me back in 1-2 business days. noted to the rep that today is tuesday, september 9 10:27 am and i look forward to hearing from a supervisor. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Tried to schedule an appointment to have the recall parts fixed with my dealer and was told they only get two parts per week and it would be more than a month before being able to get to it. i was put on a list with no idea of how long it would be. doesn't seem to be much of a sense of urgency with this service center. *tr

This is a complaint about the timeline in which this recall p14/nhtsa 14v-154 (brake booster) is taking to get fixed by the chrysler group. i have been on the waiting list at my local dealer in rapid city since mid june and they inform me that they are only getting 3-4 parts per month to fix this. i don't understand why chrysler is reacting so slow at getting the parts out to the dealers to fix this, especially with the winter months coming up and if water gets into the brake system and freezes it may cause the brakes to not work properly. i called chrysler to complain and they didn't seem to feel concerned and just gave me a canned standard statement that it is a controlled recall. now in the meantime i have a 2nd recall p36/nhtsa 14v-391 (sun visor vanity lamp wiring) which i am on another waiting list to get fixed. if someone can please respond and let me know what is considered a reasonable waiting time for the brake booster to get fixed? if my dealer can only repair 3-4 vehicles per month, it may be years before all the affected jeeps are fixed. *tr

I received a recall notice in june and took my car for repairs. they did the inspection on the jeep and found that i need a new part. i have now been waiting 3 months to get this part and my dealer tells me they can get the part from the factory and don't know when they will. today i received a new recall notice p36 /nhtsa 14v-391 for a wiring issue on the overhead lights. i took it to the dealer and they told me they would order the parts. again with know ideal when this would be repaired. the first could cause my breaks to fail the second could cause my car to burn down. i would like to get this repaired what do i need to do? i have contacted the factory with no help. they claim they are trying to produce the parts for the brakes. *tr

I received a recall from chrysler in reference to a safety recall for my vehicle. the problem is specific to the brake booster in that the shell may ingest water in wet conditions (rain, snow, fog, washing the car, etc.) which would totally disable any braking function for the vehicle. the instructions were to take to my dealer for repair which i did months ago. several months later the parts necessary to repair have not been delivered and every dealership i checked with have a 200+ waiting list of customers waiting for repair parts to be delivered. i've call chrysler's support line listed on the recall notice several times and the only response i get is that parts are on the way, which is the same response i've received for months! who do they have making these parts that is taking so long, and isn't losing all braking capabilities important enough to move up on the priority list??? *tr
