I called a dealer today, he wouldn't set up an appointment without A) my
having received the letter or B) running my VIN through the computer.
So he called me back, I am covered under the recall.
BUT, he couldn't get me in until 9/27. You'd think that a recall on
such an important thing would command a more immediate response.
