Update to an Update to an Update....
You'll see more than a few posts by me in this thread regarding FCA's payments for a.) settlement check, b.) reimbursement for the EGR cooler which was later covered under the Emissions Settlement and c.) 'second owner' reimbursement.
Regarding c.), as noted in a post a few months ago, I called FCA in mid-August to ask them about the last $615 due me as I KNOW no other claims were filed by any previous owner. (The first owner sadly passed away shortly after I bought the truck; secondary to that, he'd been co-owner of the dealership, and was battling cancer, and sold the dealership shortly after I bought the EcoDiesel. As he'd 'owned' the truck under the no-longer-existing dealership, even had he not passed away, they couldn't have filed a claim as that entity no longer exists. This was confirmed by my salesman, who was his son-in-law.)
Anyway, in mid-August, I was told by 'Mary' that if no claims had been filed, I'd receive a check in mid-September. It's now nearly November, and I've received nothing, nor gotten any updates of any kind on the balance. So I called the Emissions Hotline again, and spoke with 'Diamond.' She told me, "Oh, the timeframe for first owners to file was extended to October 31st; you'll just get a check if no one has made a claim as first owner by then." I told her, "Well, I heard just about the same thing in mid-August, and no one mentioned them extending the timeline to the end of October."
So I then called FCA's 'Customer Care' and explained all I wanted was some information on the balance of the settlement monies I should be receiving. 'Sam' looked up my information, and informed me he'd have to transfer me to another department. In this circular fiasco, he punched me back through to the Emissions Hotline, where I listened to all the pre-recorded claptrap once again.
If there are other 'second owners' out there, has
ANYONE ever receive their final installment of the $3075.00? (I got $2460, I've been repeatedly told I SHOULD get the remaining $615, though no one at FCA can give me a status on it...)
Thanks Gang!
And so it goes...
