RE: IGNITION SWITCH RECALL (P41): I AM NOW GOING ON 2 YEARS WITH A FAULTY IGINITION SWITCH THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED. WHEN I LAST CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP (LARRY H MILLER JEEP, RIVERDALE, UTAH) I WAS INFORMED THEY DO HAVE THE PARTS FOR THE RECALL, BUT THEY "DO NOT HAVE THE SPECIFIC PART" FOR MY JEEP. HOW LONG IS IT REASONABLE TO WAIT FOR A RECALL TO BE DEALT WITH? I JUST WANT MY JEEP FIXED AND I GROW TIRED OF LARRY MILLER AUTO GROUP SENDING ME MAILINGS SAYING THEY WILL BUY BACK MY JEEP AND PUT ME IN A NEW CAR. HOW LONG MUST ONE WAIT FOR A RECALL TO BE FIXED?
