I own a 2004 jeep liberty. I read an article in our local paper in august 2006 concerning recalls. Finally received the notification late november - safety recall #f23 from daimler chrysler - lower ball joints. Called my dealership immediately. Was told I was on a waiting list of 30 ahead of me and that the dealership was only receiving parts to fix 2 vehicles per week. This is ridiculous because I was told I could lose a wheel if those lower ball joints give out. Which could result is loss of control of vehicle, accident, injury or death. Called dealership on 1/9/07 - there is still 20 vehicles ahead of me. Called an 800 number to daimler chrysler on 1/10/07 to complain and my call could not be connected to a customer representative. This is when I decided to file a complaint with you. This vehicle is a family used vehicle. I have a teenage daughter driving and I am scared to let her use this vehicle. I understand it is not my dealerships fault - they state daimler chrysler is slow at sending out the parts. This is unacceptable to me.
