 My vehicles engine light was on while i was taking it to get inspected. aaa ran a test to find out as to why the engine light was on. the diagnostics should a problem with the plenum, air intake valve and the car needed a reflash or update in the cars computer. i took the vehicle down to a dodge dealership and found out that the plenum is a common fail part and is a dealer only part and cost 969.00 to replace. after having the reflash done on my vehicle and finding out about the plenum i returned to aaa to find out if they could fix the problem cheaper. they then checked the recall list to see if their were any recalls. the recalls for my vehicle were for the cars computer system , the interlock mechanism for the clutch, and the radiator fan. after finding out about the reflash being on recall i called the dealership in an attempt to get my money back and was told recalls are vin specific, even though distributed by regular mechanics. after fixing the engine light problem and getting my car inspected, 3 days later the interlock mechanism broke and would not allow me to move the clutch to put car in gear. i took it to the dealership again and paid for a diagnostics and was told the problems i am having are all listed in the recalls but they can not fix due to recalls being vin specific. i paid 478.00 for interlock to be fixed. i have two more items on my vehicle listed for recall and i now keep getting a lightning bolt warning sign on my dash when my vehicle is idle. i have paid for 2 out of 4 recalls that should have been taken care of by the dealership but were nt due to them being vin specific even though everything matches up whats wrong with my vehicle and what is being recalled.
