Called dealership twice about recall on jeep liberty ball joint problem. I wastold it could be several months before I could have my jeep repaired because daimler chrysler was sending a few parts at a time. If this was serious they could certainly look at the sales of the dealerships and determine an average number to send to each one, even if in stages. What am I supposed to drive until then? Do I just take my chances and hope for the best. If manufacture has a recall they should make sure the dealerships could take care of thier customers faster than a couple of months.

Daimler chrysler safety recall f23 lower ball joints. Recall started in september 2006, did not receive mailed recall notice till 3/10/07. Called dealer, who said that the parts are on backorder, and people have been on a waiting list since december of 2006, that seems to be a four or five month waiting list for a problem that the recall says will take one hour to fix.
There is no parts availability for safety recall f23-lower ball joints. I am writing on behalf of my wife who is the original owner. I am very concerned with this safety recall. I have been trying to get this taken care of for approximately 4 months now and every time I do the dealerships say they don't have any parts. I do not blame the dealerships, I blame the manufacturer because I have contacted a number of dealerships and it's the same story everywhere. I would like some pressure to be put on daimler-chrysler to begin to mass produce these parts as I am becoming increasingly worried for the safety of my wife. It states in the recall notice "ball joint separation can result in a loss of steering control and could cause a crash without prior warning". Something needs to done immediately because if something should happen I would hold both the manufacturer and the federal safety agency responsible.

I have been trying to schedule service on my jeep libery after receiving a recall notice from the manufacturer. I have been waiting for over two months to get the jeep service station to receive the part. I was told today (3/27) that it may be another five months before the part comes in. In the meantime, I am driving an unsafe jeep liberty. This is unacceptable. The recall is on: lower ball joints (safety recall f23).
I received notification code f23 from daimler chrysler recalling my vehicle for a serious safety problem with ball joints this month. I first read about the recall in september of 2006, but it took six months for them to notify me. After receiving the notice, I called my jeep dealer on 3/27/07. I was told that there were 170 people on the list ahead of me, and that the most they would fix was 10 vehicles per week. Next, I called daimler chrysler's 800 number that was listed on the recall notice. After being placed on hold while they were trying to find another dealer, I was cut off. A recall that will take over one year to remedy is not acceptable! Please let me know what I should do if I have an accident that kills someone while I am waiting!

There was a recall on ball joints for jeep liberty....I called the dealership addy chrysler in lexington, sc for appointment to fix the recall, they told me it would be 2-3 months because chryler would only allocate 3 sets of ball joints at a time to each dealer. What kind of secuitywas this. How many accidents have to happen before chrysler will authorize enough parts for the recall.
