I have received numerous reminders from mopar, the federal safety agency, etc to have my air bags fixed that have been recalled. Every time I try to schedule an appointment, I'm told there are no parts available no matter where I call. Any suggestions on how this can be resolved so that I may get my vehicle fixed? Thank you

I was sent a notice last july 2016 about recall on passenger side air bag notice s43/the federal safety agency 16v‑352. I am told that the remedy not available yet. When is this problem going to be fixed???
Takata recall. I can't believe that it takes this long, 11/2016 to get this taken care of. What if when driving this car we need this to protect us and it explodes hurting one of my family members. All the I am sorrys in the world won't help, it will be just another statistics for your recall. If they are stills building new cars with air bags what is more important our life or a new car. My car was new to,so am I supposed to stop driving it . This is ridiculous this needs to be fixed now no excuses. If it was yours it would have been done.
My car, dodge charger 08 has a recall since july of 2016 for the passenger airbag that the inflator may rupture which can cause metal fragments to be released throughout the car during a crash and cause other injury. I don't feel safe driving my car during this as I have a child and don't want them hurt during the possible case of an accident causing the airbag to deploy. The recall still hasn't been fixed, 8 months later, even though there is a government recall for it.

Chrysler has issued a recall regard the ignition switch which includes a list of their vehicles including the 2008 dodge charger, which I drive. The recall states: chrysler says ignitions keys on certain vehicles may not fully return to the "on" position after they are turned to start the engine. Instead, the key ends up between the "on" and "start" position. In that case, the windshield defroster and windshield wipers won't work. The greater danger, which chrysler calls "less probable," is that the key moves to the "accessory" or "off" position. If that happens, the car's engine will turn off, it will lose power steering and the air bags won't deploy. I am experienced this problem while driving my vehicle which prompted me to see if there was a recall. I reached out to chrysler and questioned why I received recall a recall notification for the airbags but not for the ignition. I was advised that my VIN is not on the list for the ignition concerns. The chrysler agent advised me that my VIN # was not on the list for the ignition problem. I advised the agent that I am experiencing the issues outlined in the recall. She advised that it was nothing chrysler can do until my VIN number is added to the recall list. I asked if there was an escalation process, since driving with a faulty ignition is extremely dangerous. She advised me that there was not a process to escalate my concerns even though I provided her with my VIN number and she could clearly see that it was for a 2008 dodge charger sedan. Please assist in the resolution of the ignition switch concern.

Takata recall: I have made contact with three different dodge dealerships in the dallas-fort worth area over the course of several months at different times and each time the service managers have not gotten back to me. Dodge locations in grapevine, plano and dallas have failed to remedy the problem or even schedule it to come in. I have driven up to each location to request the recalled problem be dealt with but they have not scheduled it to be fixed, saying that they still didn't have the parts and were being inundated with problem vehicles. What is the point of issuing a recall if the dealerships won't deal with the problem?
I received two recall notices and I went to the dealer three times to have the car serviced. Every time I returned for my appointment I was advised that the part is not in and they would call me when it was available. Because this occurrence happened more than one time I feel they are not trying to resolve my issue. Because of the safety hazard I would like to get this fixed immeadiately.
Takata airbag r25/agency15v-313 wireless ignition node module p57/the federal safety agency 14v‑567 I have had notice of these recalls for almost a year. I have contacted dealer on numerous occasions and keep getting told parts are not available. These need to be fixed or we will go lawsuit.
