I AM IN RECEIPT OF TWO RECALLS, P80 & P81. I HAVE BEEN WAITING SINCE FEBRUARY FOR RESOLUTION. THE RECALL NOTICE STATES "IF YOUR DEALER FAILS TO REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME". WHO DEFINES "REASONABLE"? *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL FUEL TANK THE ENGINE STARTS STALLING FOR UP TO AND HOUR AFTER. IT NOW IF IT HAS MORE THAN A HALF OF A TANK, IT NOT ONLY STALLS, BUT PUSHES RAW GASOLINE OUT OF THE EVAP CANASTER. THE TRUCK IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THE PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM THAT CHRYSLER HAS HAD WITH CHRYSLER 300. IT IS MALFUNCTIONING SHUT OFF FLOAT THAT IS ALLOWING FUEL TO ENTER PURGE LINE. THE FLOAT IS PART OF THE FUEL TANK AND CAN ONLY BE FIXED BY REPLACING THE $750.00 FUEL TANK. *TR

CALLED TO SET AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE P80 / NHTSA14V-795 RECALL REPAIRED DONE ON MY 2006 DODGE RAM 1500. SET TO DROP OFF MY VEHICLE AT 8:30 AM ON 4/1/2015 AT CHRIS NIKEL CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP (2920 N ASPEN AVE BROKEN ARROW, OK 74012 918-355-5000). I LEFT MY TRUCK WITH THEM AND I CALLED BACK THIS AFTERNOON TO CHECK THE STATUS ON IT. THEY STATED THAT THEY WOULD NEED IT FOR ANOTHER 3 DAYS TO COMPLETE THE WORK. I HAD AN APPOINTMENT WITH A 1 DAY PROMISE AND NOW ITS A 3-4 DAY JOB. CLASSIC WAY OF GETTING OUT FROM DOING THE JOB. I AM A SINGLE FATHER THAT CANNOT GO 4 DAYS WITHOUT MY TRUCK. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICES. ME AND MY KIDS SAFETY REMAINS AT RISK BECAUSE THE RECALLS DON'T PRODUCE ENOUGH REVENUE FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO REMAIN A PRIORITY. *TR

TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT AND SOMETIMES BACKING UP, THE TRUCK CONSTANTLY SQUEAKS. I HAD THE HUBS REPLACED RECENTLY AS THE MECHANIC SAID THAT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT IT WASN'T. I DON'T WANT SOMETHING TO FALL OUT FROM UNDER THE TRUCK OR LOCK UP. I WAS AT AT LOCAL LOWE'S RECENTLY AND A WOMAN WAS BACKING HER DODGE TRUCK TO LOAD LUMBER AND IT WAS MAKING THE SAME NOISES AS MINE. *TR
