I am in receipt of two recalls, p80 & p81. I have been waiting since february for resolution. The recall notice states "if your dealer fails to remedy within a reasonable time". Who defines "reasonable"?

Called to set an appointment to have the p80 / agency14v-795 recall repaired done on my 2006 dodge ram 1500. Set to drop off my vehicle at 8:30 am on 4/1/2015 at chris nikel chrysler, dodge, jeep (2920 n aspen ave broken arrow, ok 74012 918‑355‑5000). I left my truck with them and I called back this afternoon to check the status on it. They stated that they would need it for another 3 days to complete the work. I had an appointment with a 1 day promise and now its a 3-4 day job. Classic way of getting out from doing the job. I am a single father that cannot go 4 days without my truck. Very unprofessional and deceptive business practices. Me and my kids safety remains at risk because the recalls don't produce enough revenue for the dealership to remain a priority.

I have 3 safety recalls for my 2006 dodge ram 1500. I have called union dodge in garden grove,ca, where I purchased the auto, 3 times to schedule appointments to fix the problems. Each time I have been told that a part for one of the repairs is not in stock but that when the parts come in I will receive a call back. I'm still waiting for that call back? Of course the letter and call I did get from union dodge was asking me to rate their service as top notch so they can get the 5 star award from chrysler!! I'm done dealing with union dodge but would still like my 3 safety recall items fixed. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.

I am curious to the concern that I should have about my 2006 dodge. I have had 3 recalls on my vehicle since its purchase. One for airbag issues, one for a seat belts, and the most recent one for ball bearing issues that could allow the front wheels to become loose and fall off of the vehicle. All of these are life changing events if they happen. How many recalls can one vehicle have?

I was in an accident on feb 11 at 7:00 am. I went off the road to the right taking out a mailbox, a couple of trees, side swiped a telephone pole before coming to rest up against a tree. When the truck finally came to a rest against a tree, the airbag did not deploy, because of the final impact of the tree I was hit the steering wheel hard enough to bend it. The mounting of the airbag sensors are mounted on a frame rail which has rubber mount from the brace to the frame which would absorb the most of the impact. From a closer inspection of the impact zone I noticed the frame mount was bent where the mount was bolted. I was told by an inspector, that came out to look at my truck for the airbags, the insurance companies are putting pressure on the auto makers which make it harder for the airbags to deploy. It all comes down to insurance companies paying less on claims at our safety. The sensors were designed to help and did at one time but if you keep listening to outside sources instead of the consumer your creditability will be ruined. I am actually scared for my family to ride in this truck, knowing that the SRS is not as safe as I was LED to believe. The sensors need to be in a more solid position. Rubber mounts absorb more of the impact than it should have needed to.
