WE OWN A 1994 EAGLE SUMMIT THAT WAS SUBJECT TO RECALL CAMPAIGN 98V168003, BUT THE WORK WAS NEVER PERFORMED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS OWNED BY THE PRIOR OWNER. ARE WE STILL ENTITLED TO HAVE THE SAFETY RELATED RECALL REPAIR PERFORMED WITHOUT CHARGE? *TR

I REPLACED MY TRANSMISSION SOON AFTER TEH CAR WAS PAID FOR AND WAS SURPRISED AFTER TAKING EXCELLENT CARE OF THE CAR. ALMOST A YEAR HAD PAST AND THE USED TRANSMISSION THAT I REPLACED THE FIRST ON WITH HAS TURNED OUT BAD AS WELL. I THINK THAT CONSUMERS HAVE BEEN CHEATED BECAUSE THESE CARS ARE NOT BEING MADE ANY MORE AND THE COMPANY SEEMS TO NOT CARE ABOUT FUTURE CONSUMERS.*AK
