Took vehicle into jacksons of enid, 4405 w owen garriott rd, enid, ok 73703 on 4/27/17 for safety recall related work on passenger air bag inflator and outer tie rod assembly. air bag light was coming on sporadically and increasingly often. work performed, if any, by jacksons of enid did not solve the problem. air bag light came on within a mile of the business and continues at various speeds and for longer periods of time. outer tie rod assembly??? can't tell. . what am i supposed to do? wait until the airbag inflates while i am driving, possibly injuring myself or others? or maybe lose a front wheel? this is not the only disturbing encounter that i have experienced at this business. call me ((580) 984-1200). i do not trust jacksons of enid and they are the only game in town. tried to contact bbb, but they are not bbb affiliated. go figure.

Takata recall complaint recall number r26 / nhtsa 15v-312 i took my truck to the dealership to get the recalled passenger takata airbag inflator replaced under the recall. i was told by one of the service advisors that dodge will replace any parts that are broken free of charge during the replacement of the inflators. well that was a lie, as you can see that the dashboard on this same 2003 ram 2500 model has many complaints about it cracking and literally breaking apart due it becoming brittle. mine has 5 cracks on the dashboard and it is blowing broken pieces out the vents into my face while driving due to the problem with the dashboards. well then the dealership advised me that the dashboard will crack and break into pieces during the replacement of the faulty takata inflator and they wanted me to pay to replace the dashboard and other associated parts that will break apart during the replacement so i declined the repair. they told me that since my dashboard has cracks already that they would not pay for the parts that would break during the replacement of the inflator. i do not have the money to replace the entire dashboard. so now every time my wife is a passenger in the truck i have to worry about her getting injured worse in an accident due the faulty inflator. i find this unacceptable that dodge installed cheap plastic dashboards and now i have a defective inflator that can not be replaced with out costing me thousands of dollars due to the defective dashboards. i think dodge should pay for everything since they used faulty parts and the recall repairs should not cost me anything to get it fixed no matter how many parts they have to replace free of charge attached is the repair ticket i received from the dealership. *tr

While driving at about 55 mph, i hit a minor bump in the freeway and the truck started shaking violently,steering wheel shaking side to side. the only way it stopped was i had to reduce my speed to complete stop , the problem was i was towing a 16' trailer with a 4000 lb load on it, i was in front of a semi truck with a full load, it was a very scary and dangerous situation. . it happen again while driving at about 65 mph on freeway next day without the trailer i hit a minor bump in the roadway and the truck started shaking violently. the only way it stopped was i had to reduce my speed and stop. i think this problem should be investigated as some one is going to get killed by this happening to them

The dealer is unable to repair/replace the air bags due to lack of parts. recall # r26/nhtsa 15v-312
Takata recall. passenger airbag recall; another recall because the vehicle can jump out of gear and move forward.
I contacted my local dodge dealership on the recall you guys sent last year on this matter. i was told they did not have the new airbags to install and that i would receive another notice stating when they had them. then, i could then call back to set up a time to have the faulty one replaced. i never received that notice and have received my second safety recall notice on the same issue. i would very much like to have this fixed since my family often use this vehicle. but the local dealer only seems interested in making money, not the safety of what they sale.

Takata recall: this is the second recall i have received concerning the takata recall. when the first one was done, my dash had 3 cracks that were due to excessive heat build up when eh windows were rolled up and the outside temperature was excessive. after r the recall was completed the dash had 11 cracks, which i was willing to accept. now i get another recall notice (r26/ nhtsa 15v-312). the dealer tells me, this will most likely result in more cracks in the dash, and they will not be responsible. i have contacted dodge customer assistance and they told me that due to the fact that there were cracks already in the dash, they cannot repair or replace the dash when they perform this last recall. i am assuming to perform the current recall will result in more that 6 more cracks. i do not feel that 17-18 cracks in a hard plastic dash would be safe in the event of a wreck. i also do not feel that i should have to pay for the damage that was done due to these takata recalls. i am trying to get this resolved before i have the last recall performed. the first recall (p78) was performed during july thru august 2015.
