The recall describes problems with the occupant restraint controller, air bag deployment, and safety belt restraint. The dealer suggested I call the manufacturer, who told me they had deemed the vehicle safe to drive and to take it to the dealer for an inspection before they would consider giving me a different car to drive while the manfucaturer finds a solution. While checking in my car at the dealership, I was told that recall has 'only' resulted in injury and not death. Anybody want to volunteer themselves or their children? I didn't think so. The dealership employee checking in my car didn't think it was a problem to drive for uber.... Really? This is a safety issue and I don't think it's unreasonable to have alternate transportation paid for by the manufacturer until this is resolved. Please contact me so that my family can remain safe while this resolved. I will be sending similar messages to the ag and congressional leaders.
2012 Dodge Caliber seat belts complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 13 of 13, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I received a safety recall regarding my 2012 dodge caliber, regarding a loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability during a crash due to shorting condition resulting in negative voltage transient that travels to the occupant restraint controller via the front impact sensor wires. I received this notice at least 6 months ago and no action has happened yet regarding this recall. Please have this reviewed as I travel my family around in this car and need to make sure it is up to standards. Thank you
I was involved in a car accident on thursday where I hit a guard rail pretty hard and dead on. At the time I was going 35 MPH in the pouring rain. My airbags never deployed. This is very bothersome as I have had issues with this car before not starting all the time when I first purchased the car. I had bumper damage, the right head light was damaged and my neck was sliced by the seatbelt!
