MY 2016 DODGE DART HAS BEEN SITTING AT A LOCAL DEALERSHIP SINCE VERY BEGINNING OF JUNE 2019- DUE TO V34 NHTSA 19V293 TRANSMISSION SHIFT CABLE BUSHING RECALL! A VERY SCARY SITUATION DIRECTLY RELATED TO RECALL ACTUALLY HAPPENED TO ME WHILE I WAS IN VEHICLE ON MAY 31ST. I STILL HAVE NOT EVEN RECEIVED A 'RECALL NOTICE' FROM CHRYSLER NOR ANY PHONE OR EMAIL COMMUNICATION UNLESS I INITIATED IT. I HAD TO BEG THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP (WHOM I BOUGHT CAR FROM 1 YR AGO) TO GET ME INTO A LOANER OR RENTAL VEHICLE! IM STILL IN IT ! AND NO EXPLANATION FROM ANYONE !! I SHARE A VEHICLE WITH MY 18 YR OLD DAUGHTER & LEGALLY I DON'T BELIEVE SHE IS TO BE DRIVING THIS RENTAL (DUE TO HER AGE). I NEED ANSWERS PLEAE ! GETTING MY VEHICLE BACK 'SAFELY REPAIRED' OR GETTING ME INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE AT CHRYSLER'S EXPENSE NEEDS TO HAPPEN ASAP - TO AVOID ME CONTACTING AN ATTORNEY.
