The air bag light is on and it has a recall the lights behind the gages went out and the engine has a knock at times
I was in a head on accident going approximately 40 mph. I was wearing my seatbelt. A Chevy Trailblazer Crossed the centerline and hit me head on at approximately 40 mph. The airbags did not deploy and the seatbelt also did not restrain. As a result I hit the steering wheel and broke my sternum & suffered numerous other injuries. The Incident was documented by police and has been reported to my insurance company, Auto-Owners Insurance. No one has inspected the airbags or seatbelts but the vehicle is available for inspection.

I FILED A COMPLAINT IN REGARDS TO THE AIRBAGS ON MY 2007 DODGE RAM 1500. CHRYSLER CONTACTED ME TO TELL ME I NEEDED TO CALL MY LOCAL DODGE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG FIXED. I EXPLAINED TO THEM I HAVE ALREADY SPOKEN WITH THE DEALERS AND THEY KEEP TELLING ME I WILL BE ADDED TO A WAIT LIST WITH NO ANSWER AS TO HOW LONG IT WILL BE BEFORE THEY REACH MY NAME AND THAT I AM ALSO ON A WAIT LIST TO HAVE THE PART PUT IN ON MY DRIVERS SIDE AIRBACK WHICH I TOOK IN FOR A RECALL IN EARLY 2015! IT STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. THEY EMAILED SAYING THEY TRIED TO CONTACT ME VIA PHONE AT A NUMBER WHICH IS INCORRECT. I HAVE GIVEN THEM MY CURRENT PHONE NUMBER ON MULTIPLE TIMES. I JUST GET THE RUN AROUND WHEN I TRY TO CALL THEM. I AM NOW GETTING EMAILS FROM THEM ABOUT THIS RECALL AS IF THEY ARE TRYING TO COVER THEIR ASSES BUT WHEN I CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS ITS ALWAYS THE SAME RESPONSE AND THAT IS I WILL BE PUT ON A WAITLIST. THIS ISSUE IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND I WOULD LIKE IT REMEDIED . I HAVE BEEN WAITING OVER TWO YEARS GOING ON THREE FOR THESE NEW PARTS TO BE INSTALLED.

NHTSA TAKATA RECALL #'S 16V-325 AND 15V-313... IT HAD TO HAVE MY DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG REMOVED IN MAY OF 2015 AND NOW MY PASSENGER SIDE AIR BACK HAS TO BE REPLACED. IN MAY OF 2015 I WAS PUT ON A LIST AT MY LOCAL DODGE DEALER TO HAVE THE PARTS ONCE AVAILABLE TO BE INSTALLED. ITS BEEN OVER 2 YEARS AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE TO INSTALL IN MY VEHICLE. THEY HAVE ALSO PUT ME ON THE LIST FOR THE LIST TO HAVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG REPLACED. MY ISSUE IS THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE A VEHICLE THAT NOT ONLY HAS AN INOPERABLE AIRBAG, BUT ALSO HAS ONE THAT CAN RUPTURE. ITS UNSAFE AND WHAT HAPPENS IF I GET INTO A COLLISION WITH NON FUNCTIONING AIRBAGS! MY SAFETY IS AT RISK AS WELL AS ANY PASSENGERS I CARRY. I DID NOT PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE TO HAVE NON FUNCTIONING OR INCORRECTLY FUNCTIONING COMPONENTS DUE TO MANUFACTURER DEFAULT. A REMEDY TO THIS SITUATION SHOULD BE ESTABLISHED IN A TIMELY MANNER BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE IS KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED DUE TO THESE DEFECTS. PLEASE NOTE FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NUMBER 208 (49 CFR 571.208 .........THIS ISSUE IS OF AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY CONCERN. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER
TAKATA RECALL ALL I WANT TO DO IS SWAP OUT MY AIRBAGS BUT NOT A SINGLE DEALERSHIP NEAR ME IS WILLING TO WORK WITH ME WITHOUT CHARGING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO "FIX" A PROBLEM THAT'S NOT EVEN REAL. I HAVE 4.88 GEARS IN MY TRUCK SO IT TRIPS THE WHEEL SPEED SENSORS AS SOON AS I DRIVE. I'D SWAP THE AIRBAGS OUT MYSELF BUT NOBODY WILL SELL THEM TO ME. IT'S BEEN ABOUT 2 YEARS WITHOUT DRIVING MY TRUCK ANYWHERE WAITING ON AIRBAGS THAT NOBODY WILL EVEN LET ME PURCHASE. I'VE TALKED TO LANDERS DODGE IN LITTLE ROCK, FLETCHER DODGE AND SUPERIOR DODGE IN CONWAY AND NONE OF THEM WERE WILLING TO DO ANYTHING WITHOUT "FIXING" A PROBLEM THAT DOESN'T EXIST WITH THE WHEEL SPEED AND TRANSMISSION, IT'S THE 4.88 GEARS. I WOULD BE GLAD TO DO THE WORK MYSELF BUT THEY REFUSE TO SELL AIRBAGS TO ME.
