2014 CHRYSLER 200 Complaints

RECEIVED RECALL ON AIRBAG AND SEAT BELT ISSUE IN SEPT 2016 AND DEALERSHIPS STILL DO NOT HAVE PARTS TO REPAIR THIS ISSUE. THE AIRBAG LIGHT RECENTLY CAME ON IN MY CAR SO I TOOK IT IN TO TOM O'BRIEN CHRYSLER, INDPLS, IN 46240. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO POSSIBLY CHARGE $125 DIAGNOSTIC FEE TO DETERMINE WHETHER IT'S THIS ISSUE OR NOT. REGARDLESS, THE OWNER'S MANUAL SAYS IT'S DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. MEAN WHILE I AM DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE TIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN JUNE. CHRYSLER SHOULD PROVIDE A VEHICLE UNTIL MY CAR CAN BE REPAIRED. THIS MUST BE GOING ON AT A NATIONAL LEVEL. WHY HASN'T THIS BEEN ADDRESSED BEFORE NOW? I NEED MY CAR EVERYDAY. I AM ALSO TRAVELING THE END OF MAY OUT OF STATE AND CANNOT DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE. I AM UNABLE TO FLY, I HAVE MENIERE'S DISEASE. I AM A DISABLED VETERAN AND A CAR IS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION. PLEASE HELP ME GET THIS RESOLVED ASAP.
