Help me understand something, if a vehicle under goes and PASSES the Federal Gov safety standers at the time it is built then how the $#%^ can anyone file a law suit? I know they do but it does not make it right.
Sorry but unless you want to live in a bubble and never go outside there will always be the chance the you are not going to make it back home. It's called LIFE!!!

"Carnage"? :R

I know they do but it does not make it right. DamnLire/Chrysler was given the green light on the fuel systems in those vehicles, so unless DCX fudged the results (like a different manufacture did, cough...cough...GM) then any recall should be on the Governments dime.
The so called fix as you put it is to add a receiver hitch to help protect the fuel tank. From what I can find all fires were in crashes that involved very high speeds. Kind of like the Crown Vic Police cars, their tanks also have ruptured and caused "carnage" when rear ended at highway speeds.

PS. Not sure Chrysler/Fiat could even get sued, they didn't build those vehicles DamnLire/Chrysler now know as "The Old Car Company" did. Remember the Feds forced GM and Chrysler in to bankruptcy then created the new Companies. Will be interesting to see if Chrysler/Fiat would be sued or if DamnLire/Chrysler would be sued.- Their so called "fix" for the liberty is a joke and will not stop the carnage.

- Does make you wonder espcially when they balked at recalling the Jeeps recently.

Something is really weird with that. Something very strange going on.
It does not say that the front axle recall was NHTSA mandated. Chrysler may have just determined based on the two there was a problem with a specific batch of parts supplied.Turtle n Peeps wrote:

Yep never a good idea to get it a p!ssing match with NHTSA, they will win in the end!
Don- Folks want bigger and better every year, so these are just growing pains.

Guess there has only been one CP.4 failure :W
LOL, good one Rick!
But seriously, two failures and you get a recall? Something strange going on here? Don't know quite what to make of this whole deal. :hTurtle n Peeps wrote:

Guess there has only been one CP.4 failure :W- I haven't seen the recall, but if "6,900 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups from 2012 are bring recalled for front axle prop shafts" is true, what would an AAM 11.5 rear differential have to do with anything?
