   Recall has not been done on this vehicle. I can not keep car outside because in Florida it gets too hot. This problem of leaving it outside causes battery drain and effects the cars paint too. It is now seven months since recall notice. By having recall outstanding it prevents me from trading or selling car at fair value.

   I was sent a Recall Notice back in October/November 2023 regarding the ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) Module. This is a very serious fire hazard. I called the dealership today and they reported that the remedy is still not available. This is unreasonably negligent. It has been 5/6 months. The starter and sensor wire harness are now damaged and need to be replaced. The dealership also does not keep the harness part in stock.
