AIR BAGS
TAKATA INFLATOR. I RECEIVED THE SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL SOMETIME IN JUNE 2015. AS OF JANUARY 16, 2016, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY MORE FURTHER NOTICE REGARDING THIS ISSUE. THIS DEFECT CAN POSE A SERIOUS THREAT TO MY FAMILY AND OTHER PEOPLE THAT MAY BE SITTING RIDES IN MY TRUCK. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE RIDING THIS TRUCK KNOWING THAT THE AIRBAG IS DEFECTED. AIRBAGS ARE SUPPOSED TO SAFE LIVES, BUT IN ITS CURRENT CONDITION, IT POSES AS A THREAT. METAL FRAGMENTS CAN STRIKE AND POTENTIALLY INJURE THE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS, IT IS LIKE DRIVING WITH A TICKING BOMB. WHEN IS THIS ISSUE GOING TO BE FIXED?

APPARENTLY AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION THIS HAS HAPPENED TO THE VAST POPULATION THAT OWN OLDER MODEL DODGES, IT EVEN HAS A NAME "THE DEATH WOBBLE". IT HAD HAPPENED TO MY HUSBAND BEFORE THIS, AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN TO ME A FEW DAYS LATER.
