7 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 10/12/2015

Went to take the buyback . Went to a local Dodge dealer and they offered to buy my vehicle for $16,000. This was just to buy it to resell. They said the value was $18,750 but they were buying it to resell and had nothing to do with the buyback. Told me to contact fca. Contacted fca and they said they would buy it back for $11,000. That would be all the would give me for it. I have the papers from the local dealer who made the offer. I believe this to be a unfair resale offer plus an additional 10% that the offer was suppose to be.

I have a problem with Dodge sending out safety recalls to replace defective parts and when I take my vehicle to the dealership to replace them im told the parts are back ordered. How can you recall parts whrn you dont have replacements. This is twice now. Currently it is recall notice 25 / NHTSA 15v-313 and not so long a ago it was one about a defective tie rod end that took over a year to replace. Im I not to drive my vehicle for a year? im putting my children in danger when doing so. These conditions are unacceptable in my opinion.

11 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 06/26/2015

The vehical was being reapired at a dealer and it has been in 3 times to 3 diffent dealers to fix a check gauge light and they have not been able to reapir it. I also boguht in for the tie rod recall inspection and was told the vehical did not have a defective part. I dont belive them since they have not been a honest dealer. The truck is part of the main recall but I was told though Dodge that its not being covered because they fixed the truck which I dont believe happened. I dont feel safe driving the truck with all the issues with Dodge. I also just had the turbo replaced and now im getting desiel fumes coming into the truck. Dodge is not willing and will not work with me to get these issues resloved.
