Takata recall.- i am approximately 2 years old with the light from the driver's airbag turned on all the time. i had it reviewed and i was informed that it is a defect in the bag and that it will not be opened in the event of an incident. two years have passed and no revision is called for replacement. with the shift lever i was sent by chrysler a notice to carry out a revision, i did it and today after 2 years being in a street stopped and trying to make the change to drive i could never move it i just got stuck and could not drive more. how many more times will i have to call to do something about it? because i had to pay my composure and chrysler refused to reimburse me for that money arguing that my car is no longer guaranteed !!!!!

My son was traveling east on interstate 64 when another car came upon him traveling at a high rate of speed and slammed on his brakes. the road was wet and the other car started sliding out of control and hit my sons car in the passenger front door and push the whole car into a rock wall. the airbags did not deployed at all.
Lost control of the car rear of car hit a guard rail spun around a couple times and front of car hit an embankment causing damage to the left rear of the car and trunk lid and full frontal damage including bending the frame however the air bags did not deploy
My airbag light constantly turning on and off when i turn left or right my car never been wrecked before
'tamara recall' my car has always just shut off at times when i would come to a stop my passenger side air bag stopped working. it's now got a fuel pump problems with a burnt sensor
Air bag light coming on and off intermittently. after looking online my car also has the same air bag light problem that have been listed numerous time (but for some odd reason my vin isn't one of the recalled cars) online. while driving the car the air bag light will come on and go off continuously. reading around i have found that the problem lies within the seat track sensor. this needs to be fixed on all cars and not just the ones chrysler deems to want to fix. this is a huge safety issue and could lead to some serious problems. the nhtsa needs to make them do the right thing and fix all the cars, not the select few they (chrysler) deem to might be having problems.
Takata recall la luz de la bolsa de aire se encendio y sono mientras iba manejando en una calle de mi ciudad y aun es fecha que sigue asi. esto sucedio hace un ano y medio. fui a la agencia dodge y se me informo que no ha sido llamado para revision. aun estoy pendiente que se me avise para cuando.
I was driving and airbag light kept coming on and going off. even after i turned my car off and back on it did the same thing.
My car is having all of the same problems that the vehicles form the tpms recall had. my car isnt covered under the recall though. the cruise control wont work, the battery just goes dead, the remote start sysyem wont work, sometimes the engine wont start, the radio stays on all the time if you dont manually shut it off, the air bag light is on even though there is nothing wrong with it. i feel as though since my car has all the same problems and i have seen many more complaints from others on this site and other websites that the recall should be reevaluated and expanded to cover more of the same year of vehicles. please do something about this for all of the owners having problems.
