IT took more than two years for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles to make replacements for a defective nut that put drivers of Ram trucks in danger of losing control when their wheels locked up. Other Ram owners waited more than 15 months for a broken tie-rod fix.
Fiat Chrysler also dragged its feet on fixing faulty ignition switches and tyre failures and has repaired only 6 per cent of Jeep Grand Cherokees with exposed gas tanks that can catch on fire, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
