6 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 09/01/2015

Upon receiving my letter informing me that parts are now available for recall repairs (r25 air bag inflator housing), I called to make an appointment. I was them informed by the dealer that I would be placed on a waiting list and contacted in approximately 4 months to schedule and appointment as they were only scheduling 4 such repairs a day. As the letter I received indicated such repairs would be performed in a "reasonable time", I believe I am being placed in a position of undue risk for this length of time. This could be remedied simply by increasing mechanics available to the recall projects.

10 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 07/21/2015

This is a complaint regarding repair of Chrysler's vehicles affected by the r25 driver airbag inflator recall. I have tried for several weeks to schedule my vehicle for repair. I have called multiple dealerships in the state of georgia and the response is the same. There is a long waiting list because the dealerships are out of repair parts and Chrysler has not sent additional repair parts. Chrysler had agreed to comply with the national recall but has sufficiently supplied the dealerships with the parts needed. This cause an negative affect on my ability to drive my vehicle. I now have to limit my use because I am afraid that the driver's airbag may rupture and release metal fragments especially since I live in atlanta which is hot and high in humidity.

14 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 03/02/2015

Driving west on rt 20 in granby CT, passing through intersection on a green light, was struck head-on by another vehicle, both cars were totaled & towed away. On the other drivers' car, all of the air bags deployed, there were no injuries, while on our Chrysler 300, none of the air bags deployed, causing injury to left elbow & right shoulder. Lack of air bags deployment may have been a good thing since we subsequently received a recall notice for the drivers' air bag inflator/detonator defects causing severe injuries & deaths.
