I reported this last year when it happened but I was never contacted. Dodge put me in touch with mike martell who is the daimler-chrystler liason for safety. I have reason to beleive that they deleted my information about the way the brake pedal broke off before impact. Every time I called it had disappeared from their information. I also received word from the investigator they sent out to look at the airbags that the airbags were in fact deffective. Dodge took the original report and denied it. Those vehicles are unsafe and dodge should be held responsible. My wife and I have spent over $20,000.00 in medical bills as a result and dodge refused any help.
