My airbag light is constantly on, I would like to know when repairs for this recall will start, I was told back in April/may it would be in July and haven't heard anything as of yet. My airbag light has been going on and off and now its just on for months.

Have been driving vehicle with airbag light on for over 6 months and recall parts are still not available. Manufacturer has exceeded reasonable amount of time to correct problem. Potentially unsafe to drive and difficult to sell with illuminated airbag light. Dealer will attempt to diagnose for substantial fee citing recall remedy is not available yet. Seems like delay benefits the manufacturer. Light illuminated at about 45,000 miles.

Recall s61 occupant restraint control module. I was notified October of 2016 of this recall, stating the fix would be available in June of this year. My air bag light came on in January. A local autosho diagnosed the problem as the recall. The local dealership said they couldn't do anything until the fix became available in June, didnt offer to help get me into a safer vehicle. They just said nothing could be done at the time. Come June, the fix was pushed till August. I'm in touch with the dealership now, and they have said that parts are on hold, and they are waiting for Chrysler to release the parts. I have two young children in the car with me at all times. This car is not safe to drive, and Chrysler is not fixing the problem in a timely manner.

Airbag light comes on intermittently. Dealership corrected problem in August 2015 and it came back on June 2016. Was told the work will not be covered by Dodge.

My passenger airbag light comes on an off no matter if anyone is in the seat or not. Took my car to Dodge was told theres no recall yet I looked up my car in front of the service guy showed him the information he told me that wasn't true I would have to pay for my car to be check. Also my windshield wipers come on when they want to yet there's a recall for that as well an service continue to say the information not true. Do they just not wont to fix it. Both are so to the totally integrated power module (tipm) , which is a control modual that needs to be replaced.

My airbag light came on and I took it in for service and the light went off but now its been back on for months and also the passenger window has not been working, its been stationary and I was out of town when it happened.

Orc module is defective after dealer diagnostic check. Airbag light on continuously. I feel that this module is defective as it is in 2011 models, etc. This car has a build date of 10-2011 so it probably has the defective orc module just like in the 2011 recall notice. There are many complaints filed now and Dodge should be taking care of this for these 2012 Avenger models. Dodge states that my complaint will be reviewed internally but failed to provide me with follow up contact info. I could tell that they just wanted to end the conversation and not pursue it. So when do these complaints get reviewed? when people get seriously injured or death? now I drive this around with no air bag function, wonder why they even upgraded software for the tipim head restraints recall. . . . . Still don't have air bag function.

Air bag light just came on for no reason. Something is wrong with that.

The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Avenger. The contact stated that the air bag warning indicator illuminated. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the vehicle had an inactive head restraint and the head restraint unit needed to be rewired. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 13v282000 (air bags, electrical system), but the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 77,000.

Received a recall notice for NHTSA 13v-282 for the active head restraints. That is not the concern with the vehicle. The airbag light has remained on and was advised that the wiring needed to be repaired. This is a major safety concern and is not covered under warranty with the manufacturer. Just outside of the warranty and nothing was done to cause this to happen.

Took my car to dealer for recall notice a few days before my airbag light came on when I was at dealer they said that the orc module needed replaced I noticed in my recall notice that it was to be replaced in 2011 model but not 2012 please see below : for 2012 and 2013 model js vehicles: the totally integrated power module (tipm) must be reprogrammed. For 2011 model js vehicles: the occupant restraint control (orc) module must be replaced. For 2011 and 2012 model ka vehicles: the occupant restraint control (orc) module must be replaced. For 2011 model kk vehicles: the occupant restraint control (orc) module must be replaced. For 2012 model kk vehicles: the totally integrated power module (tipm) must be reprogrammed. I believe this part also should have been repaired.

My vehicle did have the recall n38 for the tipm reprogram done. Since then I have had nothing but problems with the air bag light. The air bag light stays on. I took it to a Dodge dealer on 5/26/15 who replaced the orc module at a cost of $385. Two weeks later the air bag light came on intermittently. I took it to the dealer again to be told this time it was the connector in the headrest. They repaired it for $128 and told me if the problem persists I would need to replace the headrest. Why wasn't the orc module recalled for the 2012's?.

I took my car to the Dodge dealership to be diagnose because of windshield wiper not working properly. When wipers are turn on they would randomly stop out of no where then take several seconds sometimes minutes before coming back on, the diagnostic came back internal short in tipm. I've noticed in many research online there has been many recalls and problem regarding tipm from Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler. Also I've had shortage in my power window not wanting to work but will eventually start again and air bag light is on all those could be related to the bad tipm. The first time I'd noticed the windshield wiper not working I was driving home from work on a raining night on the park way doing 65mph with a semi truck in front of me then out of no where the windshield wipers got stuck in the middle of the windshield I could not see because it was raining kind of hard so I had to drive 20mph with my emergency flashes on because I was less then a half of mile from my exit then I pulled over at the first store off the exit. The other scenario with the windows not rolling down I was on my way to the doctor my driver side window was down when I pulled up to the parking lot it wouldn't roll back up after I left the doctor I got home 5 hours later I decided to give it another try it was working find. My air bag light has been on for about 4months now and I've notice there's been recalls on my vehicle about the air bag.

My 2012 Dodge Avenger had recall for electrical system, airbags. I took it to the dealer and they performed recall "n38 reflash tipm. " before this recall was done my vehicle had no problems. As soon as I drove away from the dealer, my airbag light on dash was on, the left rear turning light and left brake light not working, right headlight not working, right front turning signal not working. I let the dealer know what was going on and they said I had "to bring it back in because it probably has electrical problem". This is more than just electrical problem, it is a safety problem. After having the lighting diagnosed and inspected, I am having to pay $1250 for tipm to be replaced for a new one. I am very upset and in disbelief that I have to pay this for a defective or faulty tipm module. I feel this defect of the tipm module should be also a recall and covered by the manufacturer.

Air bag light stays on. Took it to a Dodge dealer and they did a recall active head restraints recall. Light is still on. So I took it to a mechanic and had them do a diagnostic on it in the code is b1c1a something to do with the wiring under the seat to the head restraint. Took the car back to Dodge and they said its not on the recall. My car has never been in a accident, this is a fault with Dodge wiring system . Call main Dodge office they say they want fix it. This is a error with the air bag system and wiring. I can't get my inspection sticker with this light on.

Without cause, the airbag light came on. After investigating the issue, I find that my car had a recall for the tipm, which was not done. I then had the tipm reset, however it did not turn the light out. Then I had a diagnostic test done that came up with a code of b2208, which of course warranty doesn't cover. This module should be replaced by Chrysler for the 2012 Avenger as well.

My air bag light came on December 16,2014 I reported it on December 18,2014. I took it in to be fixed on 12/21/2014 but my airbag light is still on due to the fact that he said the occupant restraint control module needs to be replaced. I feel this is a defect and should be part of the recalls. How do I know that he reprogrammed it if the light is still on. Also my trunk holds water when it rains and the water comes out of the latch once it is held up. I feel that Dodge should hold up to its product and repair all problems.

The air bag light came on one night as I was parking the vehicle. I looked up the recalls on my vehicle, took my vehicle in to be repaired and the light is still on.

I got a recall notice stating that my car would be fixed and the labor and parts would be free. I have spoken with the dealership and they say I will need to pay $300 in parts to get it replaced. If the recall notice says it would be free then why do I need to pay? the recall should be covered by Chrysler. The airbag light is on. I have not been in any accidents so I do not see why I must pay for a faulty part.
