Brake booster recall p14 / the federal safety agency 14v‑154. Dealership: herb chambers chrysler of danvers ma. Dealer has been unable to remedy this within a reasonable time (7 months), and we are concerned as this is a life threatening recall if the brake booster fails again. We replaced the brake booster previously with a faulty brake booster in november 2013, at this same dealership. We have been told there is a waiting list and there is "nothing" that can be done.

I'd like to register a formal complaint "for the record". Regarding chrysler group's recall #s p14, p36 and p54 for the 2011 jeep grand cherokee 4x4 ... Parts are still not available (since may 2014 for the power brake booster!) this is totally unacceptable. Individually, the harbinger of these three (3) recalls could result in; (a) power-assisted braking failure, (b) a vehicle interior electrical fire and, (c) intermittent / unexpected engine shutdown. I contacted the chrysler group recall assistance center today @ 1‑800‑853‑1403 and spoke with "[xxx]" ... Received a pretty lame "bs" explanation about parts availability on all three (3) recalls and the method in which they are allocated to their dealerships. She could not commit as to when, if ever, my dealership would receive the required parts to remedy the outstanding recalls on my vehicle. My local dealership is a smaller, rural "mom & pop" store, so the question that begs to be asked is will I ever see these parts installed before there's a recall-related incident with my wife's vehicle? The recall "system" is apparently broken, as chrysler group is not diligently fulfilling their safety obligations and nobody from the federal safety agency is apparently doing anything about enforcing it, quite disconcerting and unacceptable! As of today's registered complaint(s), kindly consider the federal safety agency and chrysler group as officially put on notice of my complaint and of my dire concern for this particular situation. Note that the problem is not with my local dealership, as they've been trying to acquire the necessary parts on my behalf from chrysler group. Please follow-up chrysler group without further delay and report your findings to me. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

The dealer list for the warranty repair of the recall is 7 pages long and in 3 months only one page has been completed. I believe this is an unreasonable delay for a somewhat basic part related to an important safety function like braking.

We received an important safety recall letter about the brake booster on my wife's 2011 jeep grand cherokee and called our dealer, westgate chrysler in plainfield, in, on june 13, 2014, at 10:19 a.m. And were told it would be two(2) months more. Today, october 31, 2014, at 8:38 a.m. We were told it was still on order. Tomorrow will be the first day of november! I wanted to let you know, so hopefully you can address this issue with chrysler. If the brake may be compromised and may "cause a crash without warning" this is a serious issue and chrysler needs to do a much better job of servicing it. Thank you, in advance, for your assistance.
