UNKNOWN OR OTHER
NOTICED THE DASHBOARD HAD A SMALL CRACK IN IT, USED A DASH PROTECTOR MAT AND WHEN I TOOK IT OFF TO CLEAN THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD WAS CRACKED INTO PIECES. THIS DASHBOARD LOOKS WORSE THAN A JIGSAW PUZZLE. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD PIECES JUST BREAK OFF AND FALL INTO THE DASH!

ENGINE, SERVICE BRAKES, STEERING
DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT ABOUT 35 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I HAD NO POWER TO MY BRAKES OR STEERING AND THE ENGINE STOPPED. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER PLACED IT IN PARK AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS REMAINED WORKING AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT. THIS SCENARIO HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. ON A DIFFERENT OCCASION I WAS SITTING AT STOP LIGHT AND IT TURNED GREEN TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE BRAKE AND PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR THE AND THE TRUCK ROLLED BACKWARDS AND ALMOST HIT THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME SINCE THERE WAS A SLIGHT DECLINE TOWARDS THE REAR OF THE TRUCK. AGAIN ALL ELECTRICAL WAS FINE, BUT THE ENGINE QUIT. FOR ALL SCENARIOS I DID NOT EVEN KNOW THE ENGINE STOPPED BESIDES THE BRAKES AND STEERING HAD NO POWER. THE ENGINE JUST SIMPLY STOPPED RUNNING,

THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN INCIDENT AS OF JULY 17, 2015. I RECEIVED THE AIRBAG RECALL R25/NHTSA 15V-313 IN EARLYJUNE 2015. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A FOLLOW UP RECALL NOTICE. I CONTACTED SHELOR MOTOR MILE DODGE IN CHRISTIANSBURG VIRGINIA 24073 ON JULY 17, 2015. THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD OPEN A TICKET AND ORDER THE PARTS. THEY ALSO TOLD ME IT COULD TAKE A MONTH OR TWO FOR THE PARTS TO ARRIVE. I FEEL THAT THIS IS NOT A REASONABLE TIME DUE TO THE NATURE OF THE RECALL. I WOULD LIKE TO EXPIDITE THIS PROCESS OR BE PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR UNTIL THIS CAN BE REPAIRED.

THE DASH OF MY TRUCK STARTED TO CRACK AND NOW IT IS IN PIECES. I PUT ON A DASH COVER TO COVER THE LARGE HOLES. I NOTICED OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THE EDGES ARE SHARP I TRIED TO GLUE SOME TOGETHER, BUT THEN ANOTHER PART OF THE DASH FAILED. WILL THIS AFFECT THE AIR BAGS? IT SEEMS THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, THE HARD PLASTIC HAS SHARP EDGES. UPDATED 09/25/15*LJ UPDATED 11/28/2017*CN

I RECEIVED A FORMAL RECALL NOTICE (P77/NHTSA 14V-796) WHICH STATED A SAFETY CONCERN WITH MY TRUCK'S REAR PINION NUT THAT MAY COME LOOSE OR FALL OFF. WHEN I CALLED OUR LOCAL DODGE DEALER IN WESTERLY, RHODE ISLAND THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULDN'T HAVE THE CORRECTIVE PARTS FOR ABOUT 2-3 MONTHS? THIS BEING A SAFETY CONCERN AND MY SECOND NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER WHY ARE PARTS NOT AVAILABLE? IT SEEMS I HAVE TWO RECALLS IN AN OPEN STATUS AND CAN'T GET EITHER ONE REPAIRED BY CHRYSLER AT THIS TIME. A CONCERNED CHRYSLER OWNER.

AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED GOING ON AND OFF AND THEN WENT SOLID RED ALL THE TIME. I TOOK IT TO THE DODGE DEALER FOR THE RECALL AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE CONTROL MODULE WAS FAULTY ALONG WITH THE PASSENGER SEAT SENSOR. OF COURSE, THEY FOUND THAT MY UPPER CONTROL ARMS NEEDED REPLACED. THE TOTAL COST OF REPAIRS WOULD BE $800+. THEY SAID THE RECALL ONLY PERTAINED TO THE AIRBAG ITSELF. I HAVE NEVER HAD AN AIRBAG ISSUE IN ANY VEHICLE UNTIL NOW?
