There are two recalls on this vehicle, r13 and ve4 but I have been unable to get these completed because the dealer and dodge state that they do not have the parts. This has been going on for well over 1 year. I have called many times to both the dealer and dodge but all I get is we have no estimated time for these parts. I do not feel comfortable driving the car without these two recalls being completed. Is there anything you can to do help in getting this two recalls completed? Thank you
