Safety related?? Pffft! Smells fishy to me... (Maybe I'm wrong, but
something doesn't seem quite right here...) You could make the case that
almost any part on a vehicle is safety related... Would they also refuse
to sell you a set of brake pads? Wiper blades? Shifter knob?? Any of
that stuff can cause an unsafe condition if not installed properly.
I wonder what are the legal implications of telling people they're not
allowed to work on their own vehicles? Oops, I'd better stop now before
I get really ticked off... ;-)
You can probably order one from Koller Dodge, and probably cheaper than
the "local" dealership to boot... (www.kollerdodge.com)
