"takata recall" I took the Durango to orange coast Dodge in costa mesa to fix the recall. They inserted a diagnostic device that showed that the air bag system was off line. No warning light was showing on the dash. When starting the vehicle the airbag light and the restraint system indicators on the dash light up for a few seconds then go off. The dealer ran a diagnostics and found that the airbag system was not initialized and that the warning light does not come on because the vehicle computer cannot connect to the system. He said its as if the system is not installed. The service associate said that he's seen this before and doesn't know for sure how it happens - maybe a voltage spike or battery issue. They performed the recall, initialized the system, tested and say everything works. Cost me $155. How will I know for sure that my airbags are online if the indicators don't show me? I had a front end collision in the vehicle in 2015 and the airbags did not deploy - see attached photo. After the collision the transfer case motor was stuck in 4 wheel drive mode even though the switch is in AWD position. At no time have I seen any indicator on the dash that shows the air bags or restraint system not working.

Takata recall I almost got into a really bad accident yesterday with my family in the car ( my daughter was in the passenger seat). All I could think about was the airbag going off and killing my child due to metal fragments deploying from the airbag. We should not have to worry about these kind of things. We have enough to worry about in the road with crazy drivers as it is. It seems like the parts are never going to come in to fix our air bags. I want a car I can drive safely with my family until my airbag gets fixed. I think it is takatas duty to everyone to make them feel safe.

Car stalls at stop light. No reason. Car started shifting into all wheel drive by itself. I could hear it shifting as I opened driver door, and car was not on. Did not know what the noise was. Car sounded like it was grinding the gears when moved into drive. Towed to shop. Transmission guy could not figure out why it changed all by itself. Cargo lamp is one if I open rear hatch. It will only go off if I close the hatch twice. Now airbag light is on, since new battery was replaced.
