TAKATA RECALL - WHEN THEY REPLACED MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG THEY BROKE THE ELECTRICAL SUBSTRATE (IN THE AIRBAG COVER) THAT FUNCTIONS THE HORN. APPARENTLY THIS IS HAPPENING ON MOST OF THESE AS THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER. I HAVEN'T HAD A HORN SINCE MAY 2016 AND HAVE ALMOST BEEN IN A WRECK AS A RESULT.

"TAKATA RECALL" WE TRAVELED TO LOUISIANA TO BURY OUR FAMILY MEMBER ON JULY 13, 2016. WHEN WE RETURNED HOME WE HAD A RECALL NOTICE WAITING FOR US (PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR). WE WERE CONFUSED BECAUSE WE HAD ALREADY HAD BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS WORKED ON FROM RECALLS. WE WERE TOLD THIS IS DIFFERENT, THIS IS A RECALL ON A RECALL. BASICALLY, THIS IS A INTERIM NOTICE AND THE DEALERSHIP DOES NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WILL RECEIVED A RESOLUTION TO REPAIR THE AIRBAG. THIS IS OUR OTHER MAIN VEHICLE FOR TRANSPORTATION. OUR OTHER VEHICLE IS OUR 2009 SCION XB WHICH IS ON RECALL FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. WE ARE DISGUSTED. WE CAN NOT GET ANY DEADLINES, WE CAN NOT SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AND THIS PROBLEMS IS TAKING TOO LONG. WE NEED SOME ANSWERS AND WE NEED THEM, NOW. WE ARE SENIOR CITIZENS, WE HAVE OUR MEDICAL ISSUES AND WE DEFINITELY DO NOT NEED THIS KIND OF STRESS AND INCONVENIENCE.

I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER FOR PASSENGER AIR BAG RECALL.I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT 3 DAYS ADVANCED, EVEN THOUGH I WAS THERE FOR 5 HOURS AND MY TRUCK WENT IN TO SHOP AND OUT RIGHT AWAY BUT WAS LEFT SITTING. AT THAT TIME I THOUGHT IT WAS SITTING PROBABLY BECAUSE THEY WHERE WAITING FOR MY NEW PART; I ASKED IF IT WAS DONE AT HOUR 5 AND DEALER SAID THEY WHERE LOOKING FOR ME FOR THE LONGEST TIME AFTER I CLEARLY TOLD THEM I WAS GONNA WAIT. I WAS SITTING RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEM FOR HOURS AND MY FEAR IS THAT DEALER NEVER INSPECTED AIR BAG AT ALL. HERES WHAT I GOT: R26 SAFETY RECALL R26- PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR (RECALL) INSPECT PASSENGER AIRBAG PART NUMBER AND CONDUCT SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM TEST. NO FURTHER ACTION REQUIRED. I HAVE A FEELING THEY BS THIS INSPECTION, I DONT TRUST THEM AS FAR AS I CAN THROW THEM.

STRUCTURE:BODY
MY DASHBOARD WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED BY THE SUN AND HEAT ( 2008). IT STARTED AS CRACKS AND MORPHED INTO PIECES FALLING APART. I ASKED DODGE IN 2008 IF THEY WAS ANY RECALLS AND THE RESPONDED NO. I COULD HAVE IT REPLACED FOR APPRX 600 USD. ITS NOW 2016 AND I FINALLY HAD MY DASH REPLACED WITH A NEW AFTERMARKET PIECE THAT IS MADE WITH PLASTICS THST ARE DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND SUNLIGHT AND HEAT. WHY IS DODGE ALLOWED TO PRODUCE A PRODUCT THAT FAILS SO EASILY AND NOT HELD RESPONSIBLE? THERE SHOULD BE RELEIF FOR THE OWNERS !!
