Takata recall. I had an airbag indicator that came on the dash board of my vehicle and I received a letter regarding the recall of my airbag. I did take the vehicle to the dealership for repairs. After the airbag recall issue was repaired I noticed that the airbag indicator light was still on. I did go back into the dealership and asked the service representative why the indicator light was still on. The service rep advised me that there is nothing they could do about the indicator. I left the dealership and decided to do a bit of research because I couldn't understand why the indicator was still on. Upon researching the indicator light, I did read that if the airbag indicator light was lit and I got into an accident the passenger side airbag would not deploy. I called the chrysler dealership back and asked to speak to a service manager who advised that the light was not an issue they could resolve unless I paid a diagnostic fee of $120 and they would let me know at that point why it was on. I can't understand if the vehicle has an issue with the airbag and there is a recall why I would have to pay for a diagnostic test. I feel that if the vehicle has an airbag recall that I should have left that dealership with all the confidence in the world that the issue was resolved. Yet I now must either pay or hope that I do not have a motor vehicle accident and have a passenger in the vehicle. I believe that it should be covered especially since the airbag has a recall. I can understand if it's a maintenance indicator but it's an airbag issue that puts the passengers in my vehicle in danger. I need to get some assistance with this matter. I feel that I should not be put in jeopardy.
