Why would you be screwed? Wouldn't the recall get it fixed/replaced for free?

if the parts aren't available , do you stop driving the truck? or ride with the system disconnected? how many replacements are waiting at the dealer? not to mention the inconvenience of blowing a day or two just to get it done.....yeah we are screwed.

lol. You think every control module, actuator, sensor or air bag is made in the same plant? There are many more parts than just air bags that are gotten from other parts manufacturers.

Even though I have an 07' I am not in this recall, but I received a letter for the fuel tank vent valve recall, I am waiting for parts to reach my local dealer.

I looked mine up on that website, said no recalls, even though Chrysler sent me a recall letter last month.

Mine doesnt say anything either when I type it in although I have a 2008 that was bought in Texas. Don't know if I should take it in or not.....the nearest dealership is about 45 minutes away from me and a pretty big hassle to deal with.
