1 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 11/13/2016

Takata recall. The recall date was July 1st, 2016 and the recall status is still incomplete because parts are not yet available. People have died because of these airbag inflators and 4 months in without a remedy in sight is unacceptable.

2007 Dodge Ram 1500. Consumer writes in regards to driver airbag inflator housing dash board light continuously flashes on and off. The consumer stated even after the dealer claimed the air bag issue was fixed, the light continued to illuminate.

3 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 02/15/2016

Driver airbag inflator, went to Dodge dealer about recall and he said he did not have the parts and he would call me when he gets them. I have three of these (r25/NHTSA 15v-313.

4 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 02/09/2016

Takata recall. I was notified in August of a potentially life threatening issue where my driver air bag inflator could explode. The notice said replacement parts were not available at that time, I would be contacted when available. I have not received any further notice. I called the number Chrysler listed on the notice in approximately October. I was told they still did not have the parts. I gave them the name of the dealer I would like to do the work, they said I would be added to their list and would be contacted. I have yet to be contacted. The length of time and lax attitude Chrysler has to fix this life threatening matter is absurd. Per quarterly report 15v-313, less than 24% of the vehicles of the total recall population have been resolved in 9 months time after the manufacture has know and been acting on this problem. This is frankly unacceptable. I feel the government needs to step in, make sure the remaining 3 million consumers get their vehicles repaired and impose heavy fines and sanctions on Chrysler for their neglectful response to resolve this problem.
