These vehicles are a part of the family. When one feels as though they can't trust a vehicle where their child safety seats ride, it is a terrible feeling. It feels like a betrayal.

Thank you. Jeep has done the right thing and I have a tear in my eye to know people I know will be happier when this recall happens to their vehicle.

Please don't do this again. This is important. There are jobs and lives involved. Stop listening to stupid lawyers. We are a nation of people and we belong to each other. Kindly remember that.
