I called in to [xxx] on March 3. we discussed a safety issue on my 2003 Dodge Ram pick up truck. Gave him my VIN number: [xxx] told him I had my truck in for a recall R26/NHTSA 15V-312 on air bag May 20, 2016. Work was done. Now my "airbag" light has come on steady. John did not show any further recall and referred me to Chrysler Corp. [xxx] at Chrysler corporate referred me to dealer, landmark Dodge Chrysler Jeep in morrow Georgia. Set an appointment for 8am March 3. took 24 hours to hear back from them. This is where I am asking for help from your office regarding the safety issue. Landmark tells me it will cost $420 in diagnostics cost to tell me what the problem is. This smells of a cover up as to the problem. I did not let ths deter me, so I authorized. The truck has not been in a wreck and this happened during normal street driving while moving. Will keep you advised, but can you help with this outlandish fee to detract me perusing this safety issue?

- San Tan Valley, AZ, USA
Takata recall. I have just received my 7th recall notice for dealer replacement of the faulty airbag system. I have called Dodge headquarters and time and again been referred to my local dealer. The dealer says they will call me when they get the parts. I have never heard from the dealer on this subject. I believe this started back in 2014/2015 but it's hard to tell since none of the notices are dated. When can I expect to get this possibly explosive part replaced?
