Failure Date: 10/30/2017

My air bag light keeps coming on in my dash area . I took it to my dealer on 10-30-2017 ( they did the recall when I received my 1st notice ) got another one today . They told me no light was on at the time , so they said it was not related to the recall notice , and I would have to pay to have them look into it any farther. The light still comes on, so I contacted you . The truck is in motion when the light comes on . I'm scared the air bag may deflate while I'm driving my truck . Please help me solve this as soon as possible, the dealer refuses to go any farther with the recall !! thank you.

3 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 08/26/2016

Airbag light on dash stays on. Contacted Dodge about this problem and they could not help. I don't think it is a good idea to drive around with the airbag light on. The airbag will not engage when this dash control light is illuminated. The vehicle has never been involved in a collision. Just minor scrapes and scratches.

My airbag light has been on for no reason I had 68,000 miles at that time, dash board starts to show cracked lines, and the sun visor is so flimsy on the driver side, it was replaced under warranty because it cannot hold to its position it falls down and block the driver vision, the truck was fairly new at that time. Now the passenger side sun visor has the same problem. Talked to Dodge USA about all this problem but they said my vehicle is not included on any recall. . Hope you can help there is a safety issue on this problem. . . Note: this vehicle has never been in an accident thank you.
