Description of the problem | Tamara recall the risks associated with this recall include serious injury and death to the passengers in the vehicle. I was notified of this recall on 6/19/17 by a serviceman at a dealership. I was notpreviously notified by the manufacturer. I hav recently learned that this recall was issued in 2/2016. I have since made the decision to purchase this vehicle from a lease. Information about this recall may have impacted my decision to purchase the vehicle. Regardless, i believe the associated risks are serious enough that an open recall for 17 + months is dangerous and simply unacceptable. |
