Called dealer on 10-10-2022, 2:30pm to arrange repair and was told that the dealer would call me when parts were available. I have not been contacted by the dealer or any other party. If this is an urgent safety problem and my life may be at risk, shouldn’t this be a higher priority for the dealer and manufacturer; should I consider my potential loss of life or disability to be collateral damage? urgent matters allowed to languish for a full year or more do not qualify as making a good faith effort to resolve a safety recall.
