“I want to complain about not being able to get the recall on the passenger side air bag fixed. I was told by adam samuals chrysler in aransas pass, texas, that the part is no longer available?????? So, I did have the rear structure reinforcement done already. And it was at that time that they told me that the part for the air bag recall was unavailable on the 2003 Jeep I have. Absurd! I also had a problem with my driver seat assembly. I cannot make the back of my seat go up or down, which, depending on who drives the Jeep, is now a problem. …”
