Tl* the contact owns a 2004 dodge durango. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 15v313000 (air bags); however, the parts needed were unavailable to perform the repair.

I received two safety recall notices from chrysler for my vehicle - recall notices are p40/the federal safety agency 14v‑354 and p78/the federal safety agency 14v‑770, both dealing with an apparent defect to the airbag inflators. We have now checked with three dodge dealers in the greater san antonio area to get this safety recall handled. Every dealer has indicated they do not have the parts in stock, chrysler has not released the parts and/or chrysler will not allow the dealers to special order the parts. This has been ongoing for several months. Therefore, I am filing a complaint at this time. It seems to lack common sense for a vehicle manufacturer to issue a safety recall notice, then fail to provide the parts required to address the safety defect. Please advise what action, if any, can be taken to remedy this issue.

I turn my car and I notice the air bag light is on and doesn't disappear until now .. What can I do?
Tl* the contact owned a 2004 dodge durango. While driving at approximately 55 MPH, the contact heard a loud banging noise under the front driver side of the vehicle. The front driver side wheel detached and caused the vehicle to veer off the road, crash into several trees, roll over three times, and land on the passenger side. The air bags did not deploy. The driver's left arm was injured and required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed and towed to a local garage where it was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The VIN was included in the federal safety agency campaign number: 14v817000 (air bags). The approximate failure mileage was 160,000.
Driver side airbags did not deploy on impact of the car slamming into the telephone pole. It was not until after the driver had unbuckled herself that she smelled smoke and the airbags deployed. She slammed her body and head all over the drivers side of the vehicle and sustained a concusion and other medical injuries due to this malfunctioning air bag. I called my local dodge dealer and they told me that my VIN wasn't on the list.

I was notified of an airbag recall on my vehicle approximately 2 weeks ago but the letter indicated I could not call to schedule maintance prior to 2/23. I started calling first thing that monday. All 6 dealerships I contacted either take my info and say they will call me back or say they don't have any parts to correct the issue and I should check back in a couple of weeks. I have received no return phone calls from the ones that said they will get back with me. My only option is to continue driving a possible death trap for no telling how long. Not to mention there's been that possibility for the last 11 years. This is ridiculous and unacceptable.

Tl* the contact owns a 2004 dodge durango. The contact stated the service horn erroneously activated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who stated that the air bag wiring harness and air bag would need to be replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 108,866.
The horn started going off on my 2004 dodge durango. We pulled the fuse for the horn and replaced it that did not fix the problem. We then took it in to griffin hub dodge and chrysler dealership. I was told at one point that the relay for the airbags was bad. Then the second time that I called I was told the wiring for the air bake was bad. I will be taking it to a different dealership to see if I get the same answer. However if the wiring to the airbag is bad that is a safety issue not a wear and tear issue and should be covered under a recall.
The air bag light for both the passenger and driver side of the vehicle come on and off during driving.
We involved in a roll over we where hit from rear and rolled over a couple times and no air bags deployed oe even when front end hit the wall that we went up before rolling over.
Any and all times the battery cables are removed from the battery for routine maintenance on a 2004 dodge durango, the airbag light illuminates after reconnection of the battery. The airbag system becomes inoperative and must be recalibrated by a dealer at a cost in excess of $100. This is the 2nd time this has occurred.
I have owned my 2004 durango for three years and love this truck. Unfortunately, the passenger airbag light and instrument panel light keep coming on and off at will. The clockspring is not broken because the radio and cruise control still work while the light is illuminated. As someone else mentioned, the light will go off if you move the wires under the passenger seat. I have read several posts about the seat weights, control module, low battery voltage, clockspring and ecu as possible culprits. The car has also had two recent accidents prior to the lights appearance and the airbags did not deploy either time? My auto body shop and insurance company found this very strange. This manufacturing defect is very dangerous and dodge has had this problem with several earlier model durango and recalled them for defective airbag repair. Durango owners need to keep posting complaints to demand action be taken immediately!
I do not know what happened this feels like this dream. One day my truck is running great and then bam oil every where. One day I started my truck up after about two weeks of letting it sit in the drive way and it had a ticking noise so I immediately turned it off. I called a mechanic he checked it and said it was a sticky lifter.I then called dodge to get professional advice because my mechanic is not a certified dodge mechanic. A service adviser at dodge dealership on rt 112 in medford and he told me that if the problem started while the truck was sitting, to just start the truck and let it run for a while. So I did and maybe five minutes of it being on and ticking I heard a noise and saw oil on the ground. Now what do I do.........I have a hole in the engine block and a fully paid piece of junk. I have records of all my regular oil changes this truck was my baby I took great care of it, I loved it and its dead. I'm not the only one with this truck and this problem when will dodge own up to its responsibility and recall the 5.7 motor .it breaks my heart every morning walking by my 2004 dodge durango to start up my old beat up 97 nissan pathfinder with 246k its sad to say that this rusted old piece of junk gives me no problems with its motor or transmission, but my new truck crapped out at 116,000 cars not are suppose to die after 100k especially heavy duty trucks. I never even got the opportunity to carry a load or tow something. Dodge made it seem like this was something that was suppose to happen because the truck has 100k...that makes no sense to me and I wish I would have done more research on this truck. But right now I just pray that dodge helps me out with this problem. This is my family vehicle that I invested hard earned cash into and now it is just sitting in my driveway rotting away. Can someone please help?

Tl* the contact owns a 2004 dodge durango. While driving at 70 MPH, the driver's side air bag independently deployed. The contact was unable to see the road due to the air bag blocking her line of vision. The vehicle proceeded across the median where a semi-truck crashed into the contact's vehicle. The contact sustained severe injuries, as well as two other passengers. A police report was available. The vehicle was towed from the scene by the contact's insurance company. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer advised they were not liable for the air bag independently deploying because it was caused by an undercarriage failure. The failure and current mileage was 110,000.
Within one year of purchasing the vehicle, engine cluster lights started coming on. Air bag warning, ABS, traction control, check engine and brake warning lights as well as the speedometer failing to work. We have had the vehicle in over 12 times in the past 5 years for this recurring problem. The vehicle is now out of warranty but the problem is still happening. I have been told by a non chrysler mechanic that the harness that goes to the ABS module has a connector near the wheel well. The dealership has tried on many occasions to seal this connector. I understand later models have a corrected harness. The mechanic told me the connector was repaired previously by splicing the wires of the harness near the connector. This was not a factory authorized repair. The connector and the ABS module are once again fried and melted. The vehicle has never had ABS, traction control or air bags working for more than a month after each repair attempt. Since the warranty expired on the vehicle, I have had it in one time for a repeated attempt to fix it. I had a battle trying to get the work done as a warranty issue. They charged me over $300 to trace the problem which it had been in for 11 times earlier. I am through trying to get this dealership to repair the problem. My wife is currently driving a car without ABS, traction control or air bags.
