AIR BAGS
TAKATA RECALL, THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED ON JULY 1 OF 2016. AS OF TODAY THERE IS STILL NO REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR THIS RECALL ACCORDING TO SAFERCAR.GOV. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. THIS IS AT LEAST THE SECOND RECALL SINCE I'VE OWNED THIS TRUCK THAT I'VE HAD TO WAIT MORE THAN 3 MONTHS FOR PARTS TO FIX A POTENTIALLY LIFE THREATENING INCIDENT. I UNDERSTAND THAT BY LETTING THE PUBLIC KNOW THAT THERE'S A POTENTIAL LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM MOPAR IS "COVERING THEIR BUTT", BUT IF THEY FAIL TO GET PARTS OUT IN A TIMELY MANNER I FEEL THEY SHOULD STILL BE HELD LIABLE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS. THERE'S NO EXCUSE FOR NOT GETTING REPLACEMENT PARTS OUT FASTER THAN THEY DO.

IN JULY 2016, I LEARNED OF AIRBAG RECALL 16V352 THROUGH THE DEPT OF TRANSPORTATION RECALL NOTICE PROGRAM (HAVE NOT YET BEEN NOTIFIED BY DODGE). HAVE MADE 2 ATTEMPTS SINCE THEN TO GET THE RECALL REPAIR DONE. TODAY, I WAS TOLD THAT PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE THAT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF AIRBAG ACCIDENTALLY DEPLOYS. THE WAIT TIME TO GET THIS REPAIRED IS UNACCEPTABLE.

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!

SEAT BELTS
SEAT BELTS ARE LOCKED IN A RETRACTED POSITION. THIS WAS FIRST NOTICED UPON ENTERING THE VEHICLE AFTER IT HAD BEEN PARKED. THE SEAT BELT CONTROL TIMER MODULE (SCTM) IS LIKELY THE CAUSE OF THIS MALFUNCTION. THIS PART IS NO LONGER BEING MANUFACTURED, SO THE SEAT BELTS REMAIN UNUSABLE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
"TAKATA RECALL" WHILE DRIVING MY DODGE RAM 2012 HOME FROM THE GYM, MY TRUCK JUST COMPLETELY SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. IT STARTED RIGHT BACK UP BUT AFTER ABOUT ANOTHER 100 YARDS IT DIED AGAIN TURNING INTO TRAFFIC. ALSO IT HAS PROBLEM STARTING EVERY NOW AND AGAIN. BROUGHT IT TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY SAID ITS THE IGNITION SWITCH WHICH THEY SAID THE DODGES AROUND THIS YEAR ARE NOTORIOUS FOR THIS AND THEY HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THIS ALL THE TIME. AFTER A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH IT WAS EASY TO SEE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. *TR

MY 2009 DODGE RAM GAS TANK ALMOST FELL OFF. THE TANK IS HELD ON BY TWO METAL STRAPS WITH ONE SIDE BEING ATTACHED BY A T-STYLE THAT FITS INTO A T-SLOT IN THE FRAME.. THE FRAME HAS ROTTED OUT AT THE ATTACHMENT POINT AND THE STRAP HAS PULLED OUT OF THE FRAME. THE GAS TANK DROPS DOWN AND ONLY HAS ONE STRAP SECURING IT TO THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP OR THE FACTORY HAS NO SOLUTION FOR REPAIR ASIDE FROM REPLACING THE FRAME (WHICH IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY). IN READING THE FORUMS AND NHTSA SITE, THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON SITUATION. A GAS TANK FALLING FROM A VEHICLE IS A SERIOUS CONCERN, NOT ONLY FOR THE DRIVER/OCCUPANTS BUT IF IT HAPPENS ON A HIGHWAY IT MAY INVOLVE OTHER MOTORISTS. A RECALL IS NEEDED.

STEERING
65 MPH THE STEERING WHEEL WOBBLES UNCONTROLLABLY. MY JOB IS LOCATED 60 MILES FROM HOME, ONE WAY, ALL HIGHWAY MILES. INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS. I HAVE MY 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER RIDING WITH ME. IF I SLOW DOWN I CAN USUALLY REGAIN CONTROL OF THE TRUCK, ONE DAY WE MAY END UP IN DITCH. I BOUGHT THIS TRUCK HOPING FOR A RELIABLE AND SAFE VEHICLE FOR MY DAUGHTER AND I, WHICH I DON'T FEEL I HAVE ACCOMPLISHED! I AM TERRIFIED FOR OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD, STEERING MAY GO OUT, AND I CAN'T MISS WORK DUE TO DODGE MISTAKES! WE HAVE OWNED THIS TRUCK FOR LESS THAN 2MONTHS. SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE BEFORE SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS!

DASH STARTED CRACKING IN 2009 AND PIECES ARE FALLING OFF. THE CRACKED DASH AND LOOSE PIECES ARE DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY HARM IF I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE YEARS AGO.
