On Feb. 20, 2023 my 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 was worked to have a repair for the airbag recall. I spoke with someone at jt's Dodge to set up the appointment prior to 2-20-23 and was never verbally informed that there was a posed risk of my dash being cracked and so I set up the appointment. I tried to update my information but the young lady on the other end refused to update it stating I've been there before in the past. My two listed phone numbers are correct (over 10 years) and my address reflected was not updated to my new home address. On the day of Feb. 20, 2023 I sent my son-in-law to take my truck to have the recalled air bag repaired, which he did. He reports being told in a non urgent, very vague manner that there's a possibility of the dash cracking and per the service manager "it doesn't happen very often but we have to tell you". My son-in-law signed the paperwork to have the airbag repaired. I was gravely ill and unable to take it myself or I would have. He signed the form; the service manager took photos showing there was not any cracks prior to the work being done and other photos showing a crack after the work had been done. I was never contacted at either working phone number listed on file. When I finally reached someone several days later they showed no concern. I now have an 8. 5 inch crack in my dash putting myself and passengers at safty risk. Potential risks: my airbag is not properly pressurized, a delay with or the airbag not deploying at all if involved in a mvc/mva, possibility of the airbag deploying without being involved in a mvc/mva and over time the crack could become larger/longer allowing dirt particles to get into the crack causing electrical problems or a malfunctioning airbag sensor. Which places myself and passengers in great danger at any moment. Apparently this is a known (uncared about) issue as reported by Dodge who has discontinued the dash saying it is "obsolete", refusing to offer repairs or replacement, resolution.

I took my truck in for the passenger airbag recall last year at jim cogdill Dodge. They said they fixed it but now I still get calls and am told it isn't fixed. I had already had the drivers side fixed long before that but they didn't have the passenger side. I have contacted jimcogdill Dodge and the Dodge ram people about it and I keep getting different answ ers. I have no idea if they fixed it or not.
This truck was purchased from autobarn in linden, PA. It was involved in a head on collision while entering a highway on a on ramp and none of the air bags deployed. After investigating it was found that the truck had 2 open recalls for airbags. The owner of autobarn was contacted and explained what had happened and further explained that a bill was passed in 2018 forbidding the sale of any vehicle with open recalls unless the purchaser agreed in writing that the vehicle would be accepted in that condition. No such form was signed. He further stated that he had no idea he was responsible. He was advised that this truck should have never been sold and through his negligence he endangered both occupants in the vehicle in the accident. Autobarn sells many vehicles and I wonder how many others have been sold in violation of this law.
I purchased my truck December 2018 from a private citizen, I recently ran a check for recalls and it informed me that none of the recalls associated with my 2005 Ram 1500 have never been addressed. I would like information as to how I move forward in getting the recalls fixed.

Takata recall & rear differential pinion nut I have received two recall notices for this vehicle. The reality is that I live on an island (kodiak, alaska) on which there is no Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/ram dealership. To get the vehicle to such a dealership would require a ferry ride of over 10 hours (each way) and the expenditure of over $500. I called the fca recall assistance center, explained the situation, and asked them to authorize a local non-Dodge dealer or repair shop to do the work. They refused, saying I would have to pay for the repair myself and then seek reimbursement.

2005 Dodge Ram 1500 truck 4x2 quad, was in motion at posted highway speed, with minimal wind present. As an eyewitness & owner of the vehicle, the driver suddenly lost control of the vehicle, rolling the truck 4 -5 times before landing on its top (upside down). Damage throughout was severe and extensive. No airbags deployed and both occupants were wearing their safety belts. Front passenger head rest ripped away from seat and was found about 100 yards away from accident scene, stuck in a bush. Right rear tire (passenger side), snapped off and broke away from the rear axel. Tire was found more than 100 yards away from the totaled vehicle & tire was not blown out. Concerns about 2 safety recalls on this vehicle is the reason for submitting complaint: recall involving a problem/defect with the air bag deployment, and recall concerning a rear axel pi�on nut coming loose while in motion & causing rear wheel to completely break away from vehicle. Defect could suddenly cause driver to lose complete control, causing vehicle to crash and/or violently rollover. This vehicle was serviced for both recalls, twice. However, in this rollover crash that occurred, the rear wheel with brake system still attached, completely snapped off the rear axel. Also, the insurance company did an estimate to repair vehicle, but did not include or mention a repair charge for the right rear wheel or the rear axel. The tail gate was also ripped off of the truck and was found about 75 yards away from the totaled vehicle. No fatalities resulted from this horrific crash, but my son who was the passenger, did suffer serious and permanent injuries, which include a head injury (tbi), multiple fractures to his ctl-spine, injured right foot, leg and hip, and abrasions and deep scrapes throughout his body. The driver, my sons girlfriend, suffered scrapes and bruising, but no serious injury.

What does it take for the airbags to go off in an accident? I would think a head on crash into a telephone pole at about 45mph would be enough. Mine did not deploy. See attached pictures. Please explain!.

Takata recall -- my vehicle is affected by the recall described in the NHTSA 16v-352. I took it to tom edwards Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep dealership in bartow FL to have this defect remedied, but I was told that parts are not available for this recall repair, and they could not or would not inform me when the parts will be available. Living in hot and humid florida I am concerned that this 11 year old vehicle may pose a danger to the occupants of my vehicle should the vehicle be involved in a crash where the airbags deploy and send metal shrapnel into the passenger compartment. I would like to know when I can expect fca to make the necessary parts available. I am afraid to drive the vehicle until it is repaired.
Takata recall I recently received the safety recall notice in the mail and spoke with an fca employee about the recall at the number provided. The recall states that it could injure or kill myself or my family yet I was not provided with any assistance in finding another means of transportation while waiting on the recall parts to become available. Will a rental vehicle be provided while I wait for parts, as I no longer feel safe driving my vehicle?.
