FIVE MONTHS AGO I RECEIVED NOTICE MY 2003 DODGE 2500 PICKUP WAS SUBJECT OF NATIONAL SAFETY RECALL INVOLVING TAKATA PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG BEING DANGEROUS. TODAY, 10/27/2015 MY LOCAL DEALER REPORTS PARTS ARE STILL NOT AVAILABLE. I CALLED VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE 888-327-4236 FOR DIRECTION WHO ADVISES TO CALL CHRYSLER AT 800-992-1997. CHRYSLER ADVISES PARTS STILL NOT AVAILABLE, ETA DEC 2015 OR JAN 2016 AND IF I AM UNEASY ABOUT DRIVING IT, CONTACT LOCAL DEALER TO GET THE AIR BAG DISABLED. 10/27/2015 I CALLED LOCAL DEALER WHO REFUSES TO DISABLE AIR BAG BECAUSE IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL LAW. WHAT SHALL I DO NEXT?
