Two problems related to side/window air bag have been reported for the 2007 Dodge Dakota. The most recently reported issues are listed below.

1 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/09/2016

Takata airbags. Needs urgent resolution. Our vehicle is exposed to summer heat to 110 degrees outside air temps (interior vehicle temps 140 + degrees) and winter lows to 15 degrees plus truck is 10 years old. Currently, also, exposed to high humidity with heavy winter rain in past two months. Have contacted local dealer's repair facility without resolution; their excuse is no parts. When is this going to get resolved? note: poor performaance "adequacy of existing safety recalls".

2 Side/window Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 09/10/2015

I was told that it would take 30-90 days for a part to be delivered to my dealer. I received a recall notice about the airbag indicating that metal fragments could strike and potentially cause serious injury if my driver side airbag deploys. A thirty to ninety day wait is unacceptable.
