I took my truck to eastgate chrysler at 500 north shadeland ave. 46219 ph.# 317-352-7192 to have my airbag recall repaired and a wheel alignment, there wasn't anything wrong with my truck when i took it into them, on my way home i notice that the airbag light was flickering when i turned corner sometimes and 2 days later it stayed on and the cruise control quite working and the horn wouldn't blow and and that area where you blow the horn was very hard, i made and appointment to take it in to see what the problem was and they told me i must have done something to damage it because it was fine when i left and the clock-spring was bad and the repair would cost $480,i told them,i'm not paying for there mistake, service manger refused to fix it so i called dodge customer service about 5-time and they couldn't get them to fixit either.
