yes but I don't know if I can trust the Chrysler service dept to NOT update anything with the ECM period. No matter how many times I tell them.

Gotcha. Well. They’d be doing work for free in that case. The safeguard there in my experience and opinion is that no flat rate technician I’ve ever met is going to willingly do a job that they’re not going to get paid for, regardless of how small it is. And the tech won’t get paid to do it unless the service advisor tells him to do it. And unless the service advisor likes working for free, he’s not going to tell his techs to do something he can’t collect $$ for, regardless of if it’s coming from the customer or the manufacturer.

Well in that case maybe I will give the Chrysler dealership a try. Its close, and if it's a common issue they would have the experience and parts handy. Was thinking the ECM recall is free to me, but the dealership is charging someone else.

The recall would be free to you. Chrysler pays the dealership to do it, dealership pays the tech. Should be easy enough to tell them to not do it.
