After getting a recall (r25/nhtsa 15v-313) for my 2004 dodge ram 1500 air bag, i called efird chrysley of florence, sc for an appointment. was told the parts weren't available but would be in six weeks on july 21, 2015 so i made an appointment for both my ram & 2006 charger. my appointment was at 7:30 am & i dropped off the truck for the recall work. at about 11:30 i hadn't received a call back so i called & was told they had to order the parts. each time i have to get a ride to drop off & pick up the truck. when i complained the service guy shrugged it off as if it was no big deal & there was nothing he could do. i said, "[xxx], were you even going to call me?". he accused me of cussing at him. what's up with chrysler? is this their way to piss off everyone so they won't come back to get the work done? (there i go, cussing again) information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

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.
