general problems of the 2011 Dodge Charger

I was traveling at 35 mph when a bright light blinded me in drivers window, assuming I was about to get t-boned, I pulled hard to the right, went over a curb, and hit an electrical pole. The front air bags all deployed, including the one by my knees. Getting out of the vehicle, I could see approximately 2" of bone exposed on both shins. It looked like my shins got hit with grenades. I located my phone on the drivers side floor, underneath the remains of the knee airbag. I was taken to the closest trauma hospital and spent 5 days there. I have undergone 5 surgeries on both legs, received multiple blood transfusions in order to have surgery (due to blood loss at the scene), surgery involved removing debris multiple times, and have had artificial skin graphs as well as skin graphs taken from two sites on my right thigh (during the 5th surgery). I have been unable to drive and must have a responsible adult living with me during my recovery. I have been unable to work. I had no broken bones or internal injuries, but extensive damage to my lower legs, nonetheless. Police reports were taken at the scene by debary, florida/volusia county officers. Photographs of my shins were take by the plastic surgeon called while I was in the er. Full body xrays/scans were also taken.

Abs wiring had a recall and replaced but the abs module is now out air bag had a recall but now the air bag clock spring is out fuel pump had an extended warranty but is now out and fuel pump needs replaced crank shaft main bearing seal needs rplaced for an oil leak but other parts have been replaced for an oil leak within the past month.

I was involved in a fender bender on the highway and my airbag was deployed but the one at my feet came out so hard I think it that it projected something into my leg I assumed it was part of the takata airbag recall but now I've gone online and seen that my vehicle is not included in that recall and I'd like to know why because I really feel like these airbags injured me.

Dealer or independent service center unable to repair mandatory national recall.

In 2015 I had issues with the seat belt alarm on the vehicle going off, stating that passenger and driver seatbelts weren’t buckled. I would get a airbag flashing light stating per manual that the airbags were not activated. Fast forward to July 2015, I had gotten a recall letter for a orc (occupant restraint module) which affects airbags and seatbelts. I brought in the car to get it fixed per recall. Fast forward to about 2 years later, the same issue had occurred. Airbag light would still pop up and stating that seats belt in the car wasn’t engaged. Brought it in to get it checked out at a local mechanic shop, they couldn’t fix it and stated I need to go to the dealership. They noted that it was affected by the recall of the orc module. Brought in the car to cutter Dodge in pearl city oahu and they fixed it, at this time I was still covered by warranty. Fast forward to around 2019 I moved to maui, the same exact issue occurred. Brought it into my friends mechanic shop and he had said the same thing that it’s an orc module and to bring it to jim falk Dodge in kahului. Explained to them the issue and they said that they need to replace the orc module for over $700. I explained to them that this is the same issue occurring with the recall. Why would I need to pay for a faulty recall fix which is affecting me and my families safety where the airbags won’t deploy in an accident which could cause death because the module in the recall wasn’t fixed properly the first time.

"takata recall" for the past year or so I have been attempting to get this issue resolve with my dealer only to have them tell me that parts are not available. This is causing me and my family stress and a hardship since this is the only vehicle I have. The dealer only tells me not to worry since there have been no incidents resulting in injury or death regarding this issue. My question to them is why then are all this parts being recalled. I feel that the passenger as well as the driver are being place in harms way. I have been told time again and again that maybe parts will be available and then again not in late December. Is this not gambling with one safety?.

Takata recall. My passenger airbag rattles like there are parts loose inside of it. Chrysler just keep saying that the parts aren't available and that I must understand that it takes a long time to manufacture parts and distribute them everywhere. With all of the rattling inside this airbag device I'm fairly sure if I have an accident my passenger won't survive. In regards to the electrical often when I turn my vehicle off lights on the dashboard radio and climate control panel stay on even if the doors open. This doesn't happen all the time and these are not lights or features that should be on when the vehicle is turned off such as the air conditioner light. The problem began somewhere around the end of 2013 beginning of 2014 there have even been a few times when while driving the vehicle all of the interior lights including the dashboard go out. I've reported it to two different dealers and shown photos to the dealer when reporting the problem, they don't seem to know how to diagnose the problem and or have told me there is no problem.
