Here in AZ we had some strong monsoon storms and during one last week, my car was shaken from the winds and rains so bad that my driver side curtain airbag was visible. It did not fully deploy but the bag was exposed. There is a current recall on these bags but since this happened before the recall fix(at the shop now getting replaced) should insurance have been contacted before hand since this was weather that caused the partial deployment? How safe are the replacements?

Had an airbag recall and dealer tried to fix it and now airbag light is on. This is a safety issue to drive car like this

We purchased our vehicle from Big Star Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram, located at 15711 Gulf Fwy, Webster, TX 77598. We drove 3 hours to buy this car, and at no point did the salesperson disclose the open Takata side airbag recall during the sale process. After the sale, we met with the finance director, Chris Schnooberger, who handled our payment and paperwork. He also failed to inform us of the airbag recall or the serious safety risks it posed. Our conversation in his office was recorded on their in-house camera system, per dealership policy. Once we returned home, we discovered the airbag recall through the NHTSA website and were shocked to learn how dangerous it was. We were terrified to even drive the car knowing a faulty inflator could potentially send metal fragments into the cabin. We had the airbags replaced at a Dodge dealership in Austin on or around April 29. We purchased the vehicle on [XXX]. I still have the pictures of the Carfax detailing the recall. When we called Chris to express our concern, he downplayed the situation, claiming the recall was not serious and didn’t need to be fixed. His tone and evasive answers felt dismissive and dishonest. My family and I feel cheated and manipulated. There was no transparency at the point of sale, and we believe this is a serious violation of consumer safety disclosure standards. We respectfully request that NHTSA investigate this dealership’s handling of recalls and safety notices to protect future buyers.

I received a notice March 14th of 2024 indicating that the side curtain airbag on my charger may fail and cause shrapnel to go into the passenger and driver's area and possibly causing injury. To date I have not heard a word and every time I check up on this recall it says that no remedy is available. I have made repeated calls and emails to Dodge FCA in regards to this and I have never received a response. This is getting quite annoying since my wife rides in my car with me and if the airbag fails the potential for an accident or injury is great. I don't know where else to turn other than you to try and get this remedied. Friends have told me that parts are available but when I go on the Dodge owners app it says nothing is available. I need to get this fixed for peace of mind. My phone number and email is listed at the bottom.

NHTSA Recall Number 24V-198 has been active since March 14, 2024, and in nearly a year the manufacturer still has yet to make a repair available. I spoke with the manufacturer today and the representative could tell me nothing beyond what NHTSA lists in its own website tracking the recall. Per the manufacturer there is no part available. There is no estimate for when the repair will become available. This vehicle is a police patrol car and I expect better manufacturer support for our peace officers.

The airbags failed to deploy upon impact and after impact. The vehicle is located in insurance agencies' salvage yard. Others safety and my safety was put at risk because the airbags in my vehicle not deploying caused me to smack my head on something in the vehicle and I abstained a contusion to my head and a concussion I was disoriented and blacked out at some point. The other person in the vehicle abstained injuries to their leg. Had we of not been wearing our seatbelts we would have been ejected from the vehicle. We could have lost our life's due to the air bags not deploying. I don't know if the problem has been reproduced by anyone. The vehicle was inspected by police and the insurance agency. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure. I just found out that there was a recall put on the vehicle for air bags releasing shrapnel when deployed NHTSA recall number 24v-198; but the airbags in this vehicle never even deployed upon collision. So, there is obviously worse issues than shrapnel being ejected from them because they didn't even deploy.

The side curtain airbags have a risk of rupture due to a manufacturing defect, sending metal fragments into the cabin. We are not able to drive this with our children without risk of injury. The vehicle wad inspected at a Dodge dealership May 2024 and they did not have the new part to replace the defective part. I received a recall letter from Dodge.

Dodge sent out a recall letter 6 months ago. I have take my vehicle to the dealer for repair. They did not have an available part. I have been consistently reaching out to Dodge and they have no answer on when the part will be available. They are no longer responding to my inquiries regarding the replacement of this faulty part.

There has been an open recall for my car since the first quarter of last year for the side curtain airbags. I have written to Dodge a number of times as well as contacted my dealer. Dodge has not responded to my emails in regards to getting this repaired. It seems as though that it's getting swept under the carpet and nothing's being done about it. The way the recall notice I received said that possible death could happen in as a result of the side curtain airbags suddenly deflating and shrapnel going into the car. That doesn't give me too much confidence in my car and I feel in light of that wording I should get some sort of response from Dodge.

Recall remedy still not available. This is absolutely unacceptable

I have been waiting 3 months for the dealer to contact me with repair parts for my car for this air bag recall.

Airbag safety recall not being remedied by the parts manufacturer for Dodge/Mopar - Stellantis. This remains an unresolved safety issue extending throughout calendar year 2024. Local dealership is unable to repair despite multiple contacts due to part unavailability. Also contacted the airbag parts manufacturer (Stellantis) directly with a complaint. Assuming that Stellantis is being fined for each day that my car is not safe to drive? Hoping so! The wait period for the recall remedy is beyond reasonable. Passenger safety is a current at risk in my vehicle ...
