I received my recall notice today from FCA. My favorite part of this notice is the second paragraph. Check it out.

Bump to this thread since I'm having my warranty work for the clock spring today. I have to admit I've never been to a Jeep dealership before because I bought mine secondhand. I had to laugh at the 2016 JKU's in the lot. They have Rocky Ridge lifts on them with aftermarket bumpers, magnaflow exhaust, and rugged ridge winch, and mickey Thompson wheels and tires. These are sport models and they're asking $57k for them. WTF!!!! Who would pay that?

I'm sure lots of you have got the S43 recall for the passenger airbag inflator. I got this over 2 months ago and check the notes below, "may cause death and no parts are available". Yesterday the dealer told me there still isn't a fix and now my wife won't ride in the jeep. Her concern is probably overboard but understandable too.

I was told by the dealer that recall part is on back order. They said I have 250 people ahead of me waiting. It's still going to be few months.

I received a second notice for the clockspring recall about 3 weeks back. Calling my local dealer I was actually able to get it taken care of last Wednesday. They told me that they've had the clocksprings for months but have been waiting on the replacement parts for the back of the steering wheel.
I lucked out in the fact that all they have are the trim pieces for the gray interior, but none for the tan. My brother took his Jk over to the same dealer having the same interior and he was sent away with them telling him that they only had the gray trim pieces for the steering wheels with cruise control and that since he didn't have that option that they would have to order a different trim piece for his.
Despite my luck, I'm amazed at how long FCA has taken and is continuing to take to resolve this recall.
For information sake, the dealer that performed my recall was Autonation Jeep/Chrysler on Arapahoe in Colorado.

Got my second one yesterday. Jeep was at the dealer for the clockspring fix and told me they still don't have the parts for this fix yet. Kind of annoying now.

I got mine a couple of days ago. Shocker no parts are available to fix it. Wonder how long we will be waiting for them to come in.

Do they just send these out or do you have to inquire?
