I made an appointment with a dealership to get the recall repaired. I took it to the dealership the next day to drop it off so they can repair it. A few days later I get a call saying that the airbag inflator is badly damaged and wanted me to pay $1100 for it when it’s a free recall. And I declined the offer for it and picked it up the next day and left.

I PURCHASED MY 2013 DODGE CHARGER FROM ANDERSON TOYOTA OF LAKE HAVASU CITY, ARIZONA AS A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED VEHICLE LAST YEAR. I HAVE SINCE COME TO DISCOVER THAT THE VEHICLE HAS 5 ACTIVE SAFETY RECALLS, NONE OF WHICH WERE ADDRESSED OR FIXED PRIOR TO THE DEALERSHIP SELLING ME THE CAR. SEVERAL OF THE RECALLS HAVE BEEN IN PLACE FOR YEARS, BUT I WAS NEVER INFORMED THAT I WAS BEING SOLD A VEHICLE KNOWN TO BE UNSAFE. I AM NOW PAYING ON A FINANCED VEHICLE THAT CANNOT BE DRIVEN OUT OF TOWN, DUE TO KNOWN DEFECTS THAT WERE IN PLACE AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE.

THE WAS A RECALL ISSUE FIXED ON MY VEHICLE SOMETIME LAST YEAR WHERE IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN, THEY WENT INTO MY DASH AND/OR REMOVED THE DASH. ALSO THE AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD GO ON AND OFF. SINCE THEN, I'VE STARTED TO EXPERIENCE CLICKING/KNOCKING WHERE THE AIRBAG WOULD BE LOCATED AND THE AIR BAGS LIGHT IS ON AND OFF VERY FREQUENTLY AS WELL. IF I HIT A BUMP ON THE SIDE WHERE THE CLICKING OCCURS, THE AIR BAG LIGHT WILL COME ON. NOT SURE IF THE PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE RECALL THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED IN THE PAST, HOWEVER THERE WAS NO CLICKING/KNOCKING IN THE DASHBOARD PRIOR TO THE FIX, ONLY AIRBAG LIGHT. I JUST DON'T WANT IT TO BE AN AIRBAG ISSUE OR IT DEPLOYS WHILE I'M DRIVING. NOT ABLE TO PUT IN AN EXACT DATE BECAUSE IT HAPPENS EVERYDAY, SO ONLY ENTERED TODAY'S DATE.

CURRENTLY HAVING AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS. THE VEHICLE IS IN THE SHOP FOR THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THAN 2 MONTHS FOR THE SAME LIGHTS. TWICE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD DO SOMETHING FUNNY AND THE THOSE LIGHTS WOULD COME ON. THE SECOND TIME(CURRENTLY AND OCCURRED ON JUNE 4TH) THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AS WELL. THE FIRST TIME THE ABS AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON, I WAS TOLD IT WAS A ABS SENSOR, AND I PAID THE DEALERSHIP $250.00. THIS TIME LESS THAN 2 MONTHS LATER, THE DEALERSHIP IS SAYING IT IS YET ANOTHER SENSOR CAUSING THOSE LIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE. AND AS FAR AS THE AIRBAG GOES, IT'S FAULTY WIRING AND THAT IT NEEDED ANOTHER WIRING HARNESS. THESE REPAIRS WOULD COST ME OVER $600.00. I HAVE TWO FRIENDS THAT HAVE THE SAME VEHICLE AND ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS WITH THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A OVERALL DODGE ISSUE AS FAR AS THE CHARGERS GO.
