NHTSA complaint #11763623 · source - Filed Sep 10, 2026AKOther / Unknown
I live in Unalaska/Dutch Harbor, Alaska, where there are no authorized Jeep/Chrysler/RAM dealerships. The manufacturer requires me to ship the vehicle to Anchorage at my own cost, which is not possible. They refuse to authorize a local repair or send a technician. Because of this, I cannot complete multiple open recalls, including 01D (NHTSA 26V-328). I am requesting that this be classified as “Unable to Remedy Due to Manufacturer Limitations.”
