Two weeks and my car is still sitting waiting on parts. I might have to fly down to FL and "test drive" that 4.0 at Champion.....

No official letter or news from the dealer. Have been harassing a friend who works at the workshop. Seems that part is still not available here too

My early 2011 went in today. NFC how long it will take them to get it done. They're also going to replace a window motor and there was another open recall to take care of.

just dropped my car off for the recall. SA said it would be done today. according to him no need to drop engine like other are saying here, no need to tip engine back as others have said. he did say it would be several hours of work with a lot is disassembly

I talked to your service guy, no "dropping" but they did have to lower the engin down to get the job done

Scheduled mine for next week. Hate the thought of the engine being "dropped" but what can you do?
