I was notified of recall the forst week of March. I have been calling since then to schedule repair. Local dealer name above has not received parts needed to make repair. I call daimler chysler who contacted dealer. Daimler told me the dealer had been ordering incorrectly and it would be corrected. The dealer now tells me the parts are on back order with no expected release date available. The recall notice I received said to : "simply contact your dealer right away" that "after extended use, the fuel rail crossover tube O-rings on your minivan may leak fuel...can result in an engine compartment fire." They made the repair sound terribly important yet I can't get the repair scheduled.
