Just when I was sat wondering if the UK was ever going to catch up with this recall...a letter drops in the post from FCA UK Ltd. Although Dodge withdrew from the UK a good number of years back, and FCA claim they no responsibility to repair Dodge vehicles in the UK...all is not lost.

All owners here in the UK should be receiving the same letter shortly!!

The letter gives details of 2 companies to contact, one in Sweden and the other in Germany. One of these kwauto.com shows appointed dealers here in the UK on their website, my nearest is Unity Automotive in Kidlington, Oxford. I spoke with them when the W09 recall notice was received, and they confirmed they would be handling the recall repair when a full repair was issued. Having had the temporary repair carried out by a Jeep dealer at my cost, it's now time for me to contact Unity to get the full and final repair.

This will be once I've managed to repair the darn driver's door unlock problem

I had that with door - just take off leads to battery and it resets ! Happened twice so far

curious to see what they replace the plastic emblem with, someone said another plastic emblem,

i recieved a letter about 2 years ago, with only 2 options offered, take my Nitro to Belgium or Switzerland, so mine has not been done, maybe they will send me a new letter with some realistic optons,

I live in Somerset so can't drive all the way to Essex or Oxford just to see if emblem is loose - don't know where eles ???

Never done mine. Not worried. I think if your airbag goes off you already have bigger problems--there's likely other items in your car that will go ballistic as well.

Yeah f**k driving an 8 hour round trip just for that !

We'll see what they say, calling them later today

Interested to find out. I'm not driving an 8 hour round trip for a dealer to look at it -
