Recall: p65/NHTSA 14v-635 : diesel fuel heater electrical connector: received first recall in December, 2014. Took truck to dealer (haddad Dodge, bakersfield, CA) and was told that they did not have the parts and would call when parts were available. As of 5-12-15, no call and no repair. Received another recall notice in mail 5-10-15 for same safety issue. This is listed as an "important safety recall". If this is so important, then why has 5 months gone by with no parts and now a second notice sent. It would appear that Dodge corporate/dealers should be held accountable for getting the parts and making the repair. I consider 5+ months as an unreasonable amount of time. Otherwise, take the red label off the front of the notice and remove the word "important" from the label.
Blu tooth phone system failed. Radio was replaced. Sirius radio signal drops out, shows :acquiring signal:. Will play then do it again. Dealer, bryant Chrysler is trying to contact Chrysler for a fix. Chrysler isn't responding.
While driving the truck the main display shuts down, all the warning lights start flickering, engine starts to shut dow, if you turn of truck computer will not not let it start, stranded has dont this 5 times now and dealer doesn't know how to fix problem. Very dangerous I was hauling by 5-wheel from trip could have been an major accident, no lights at night suddenly, no control.
Dead pedal from complete stop, dead pedal off and on the throttle. Safety hazard!!.
