RE: ~~~~RECALL INFORMATION~~~~~~
Old news, but thanks anyway. I've seen this on their site for years and I believe it's been a couple years since you could buy one of the questionable units. It's nice to know they will stand behind the product though and give you a free solution for it. Maybe Chrysler should take a page out of their book!!!
