Transmission and drivetrain: “My truck has been at a dodge dealership for over a month due to a open recall. This dealership is declining to service my vehicle because they are saying the recall has to be fixed first before they can diagnosis my truck for change in drive quality. They are telling me that dodge does not have a fix for the recall on my truck and my truck has to sit there until a fix is available. My truck sat there for 29 days because they said they were backed up and I had to wait my turn. …”
