Air Bag On-off Switch Problems of Dodge Durango

The car was in park with ignition switch off. I sat in the passenger seat and starting to put on my seatbelt when unexpectedly the safety restraint system headrest activated hitting me in the back of the head. After incident I observed that the plastic used to hold the retainer bar in place has gave out and no longer in place with the retaining bar still within the release hooks.

"takata recall" I took the Durango to orange coast Dodge in costa mesa to fix the recall. They inserted a diagnostic device that showed that the air bag system was off line. No warning light was showing on the dash. When starting the vehicle the airbag light and the restraint system indicators on the dash light up for a few seconds then go off. The dealer ran a diagnostics and found that the airbag system was not initialized and that the warning light does not come on because the vehicle computer cannot connect to the system. He said its as if the system is not installed. The service associate said that he's seen this before and doesn't know for sure how it happens - maybe a voltage spike or battery issue. They performed the recall, initialized the system, tested and say everything works. Cost me $155. How will I know for sure that my airbags are online if the indicators don't show me? I had a front end collision in the vehicle in 2015 and the airbags did not deploy - see attached photo. After the collision the transfer case motor was stuck in 4 wheel drive mode even though the switch is in awd position. At no time have I seen any indicator on the dash that shows the air bags or restraint system not working.

I have replaced the cylinder switch on my truck which cost me $465. 00 to get a new 1 in order to crank my truck aaa repaired this for me in 2014,I've also had a leak sealed up in the coolant area all my freeon was leaking out now the windows on the truck will not go down the only thing that opens is the sunroof. I had the truck put on a machine at a shop here they said it was the canbus system under the hood that is inside the computer that is causing this but my truck also has a recall on it as well,I have a white 2005 Dodge Durango hemi 7. 5l truck VIN number 1d4hb58d15f610689 yet to hear anything on the recall 07/25/2015.

On 12/3/07 I called 1-800 # and was told they would get back to me. Haven't heard from them.

Engine stalls at freeway/highway speeds causing loss of control - numerous electrical failures - transmission - a/c blows both cold & hot air at same time - power switches getting hot to touch - repairing dealer has been unable to fix - each time it is worked on - problems multiply after they flash/reprogrammed pcm/computer.

Not even making my first payment yet, my car has seen the shop several times and still not fixed. My brake line was "cross treaded" in the assembly line. There for I had very little brake fluid left (only 2 weeks after buying the car) and the fluid leaked on my rim which now has to be replaced but is on back order till "whenever". I was with out my new car for over a week for this problem. Then I have to get the bumper replaced due to fading which the service dept says has happened to several Durango's and pt cruisers. This will be a 2-3 day process once Chrysler figures out how they are going to repair since they have stopped replacing. (this will be more time with out my new car. ) then it was in the shop because the radiator cap was not put on correctly during assembly and it loosened. All the coolent leaked and caused the car to overheat. Last but not least the air bag light came on and they said that they have to replace the impact sensor switch. . . Which you guessed it. . . Is on backorder. This might or might not be the problem but they can't go any further until this is changed out. So once again I will be with out my car. I have talked to another service department and they warned me that I shouldn't be driving this car because with out the impact sensor switch, the airbags won't deploy on imact. This car has been too much trouble and not worth the hassle. This is my first Dodge and I would never recommend buying one. I understand that sometimes there are just bad apples in the bunch, but Chrysler and the dealership hasn't made efforts to fix problems. I just get the typical run around.

The vehicle on this occasion started knocking and the check gauges light appeared. It stated I needed oil when I recently had an oil change. It then cut off. I took the vehicle to the dealer to find out that I needed a new engine supposedly due to sludge build up. I have had all oil changes and services performed. I even went as far as to have the 30,000 mile service done. Previous problems include replacement of an air bag, rear window problems, air conditioner not working, noises while in reverse when parking, all in all also getting stuck in 4-hi. All in all they told me they would not replace my engine even with my Chrysler warranty. The vehicle only has 42,000 miles. Also had new ignition switch installed due to speedometer failure.
