Very nice just like a Cady...:)

Here's a website I suggest you go to, click on the area under RECALLS... put the last 8 numbers of your vin nr and see what recalls you have for your vehicle.

Yo! olliebamino
The cap door look good and the recall did U enter your 8 last digits or the one I provided, cause It's my recall, I bought the rear bumper from Mopar and Chrysler think I bought a tow bar and the dealer think it's the sway-bar so go figure,,,I will not bring my Jeep in, there is NO way!

Yo! olliebamino
I did not buy a tow bar, the guy at the counter does not know the difference between a tow bar and a sway bar and the guy that install my rear bumper did not read the instructions, since the rear bumper as a spare carrier and is use for recovery, He forgot to install the braces, the spare was very loose, use metric bolt with a standard nut, should I go on, So I don't trust them, they might and will remove my front bumper to inspect, if they don't read the recall correctly.
