I was driving down a county road, another vehicle ran a stop sign in front of me i swerved and the vehicle went airborne off the road and impacted head on to other side of the drainage ditch off the road. my airbag was not deployed and my head impacted the steering wheel.
Had recall 15v-459 completed at jack powell dodge dealership 06/09/2016. dealership said they completed recall repair. airbag light and chime still continuously and intermittently went off while engine running. truck suffered front end damage in traffic accident 07/29/2016 requiring new bumper, grill and hood. this accident was substantial enough the airbags should have gone off. airbags did not go off. still today, airbag chime and sensor light continuously / intermittently goes off. makes no difference if the transmission is in park or drive; seats occupied or empty. i dont believe the original recall repair was made at dealership.
My air bag light came on for about a day then went off. at the same time i notice the back seat door would not lock or unlock by using the key fob or auto door locks. since then, the door locks work but the air bag light stays on. hooked up a diagnostic and shows no errors. truck only has 30k miles and warranty is out. i do have extended warranty but feel this should not happen at this low mileage.

Received recall notice that a steering wheel harness could rub and deploy the airbag at any time. i took the truck to hollywood chrysler hollywood fl and they repaired and returned. when i arrived and for the preceding months prior my "fuel economy display" indicated my average mileage was 15.8 gallons per mile reasonably within the specs for this vehicle. following the wiring harness repair the display now (and for more than 2 weeks ) reports 11.8 mpg. somehow the repair altered the fuel usage of the vehicle. the dealer checked and said nothing was wrong. but my mileage has gone from 15.8 to 11.8. i'm not driving differently. i'm losing 30% of my gas and the vehicle is now under advertised specs of 14/20 mpg there is an issue they don't want to discuss. can the nhtsa contact other owners with this repair and verify? can you help? thanks

I received a recall notice in the mail; #r36/nhtsa 15v-459. i called peterson's stampede dodge in nampa, id. i spoke to jen in service 208-475-2955. i was told that 1500 vehicles were involved. i could be placed on a waiting list of 229 customers, and would be called when i could bring the truck in. no estimated time frame could be given. however, if i wanted to schedule an oil change, i could make an appointment for that, and the recall repair could be done at the same time. i don't think i should have to pay for an expensive dealer oil change (normally do this myself) just to jump the list for a mandatory safety recall. i also don't think it is right for others to jump ahead of me because they choose to have the dealer change their oil. this does not seem legal to me.
