I hit a pole that crushed in the driver side of the car including part of the hood. Did over $4500 of damages. Even the frame horns had to be replace. The air bags did not worked. If it wasn't for the seat belts, I would have went through the windshield.

This is a complaint regarding repair of Chrysler's vehicles affected by the R25 driver airbag inflator recall. I have tried for several weeks to schedule my vehicle for repair. I have called multiple dealerships in the state of Georgia and the response is the same. There is a long waiting list because the dealerships are out of repair parts and Chrysler has not sent additional repair parts. Chrysler had agreed to comply with the national recall but has sufficiently supplied the dealerships with the parts needed. This cause an negative affect on my ability to drive my vehicle. I now have to limit my use because I am afraid that the driver's airbag may rupture and release metal fragments especially since I live in atlanta which is hot and high in humidity.
