    Chrysler has issued a recall for my vehicle due to the brake booster prematurely corroding. I received a letter in the mail several months ago and contacted my dealership. Despite several contacts since, they maintain that they have never received any parts needed to complete the recall. A call to the chrysler group recall assistance center went unanswered on 02/02/2015. *tr
