At shaver automotive group in thousand oak, ca over at least the last year. Ay first they told me they were waiting for the part and should have them in 2 weeks to a month. I took my car for servicing, I took my recall letter and the service manager ([xxx]) there. He advised (told) me and my wife, that they would no longer be receiving these recalled airbags and replacing. Help what am I supposed to do I don't want them turned off because of safety concerns but I feel im driving a death trap when my family is in my truck. Please helpme find a solution, [xxx] or [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Takata recall I was notified in June 2016, that my truck was part of the takata passenger-side airbag recall. I contacted the local dealer and was told on 7/7/2016, that they would notify me when parts were available. According to the paperwork on the filing, I am in priority group 2. it was my understanding, that I could expect the recall repair to my vehicle to be repaired by the end of 2016. It is now 3 days from the end of the year and I have received no further notifications from Dodge about the recall or any information about when I can expect it to be completed. In reading some of the information, it appears that it may now be fixed by March 2017. I understand part supply is part of the issue, but the manufacturers have known about this for several years now and should be prepared to fix this in a much more timely manner than up to 10 months (March 2017) later. I experienced a similar delay in getting the drivers side airbag repaired. Can I please get some information on what the NHTSA is doing to push the manufacturers to repair unsafe vehicles in a more timely manner? I am waiting for a reply from the dealer to see if they have any more information.

I bought this truck 3 months ago. The carfax showed the recall for the airbag on passenger side. Day after I bought it, I went to Dodge dealership in greenwood SC to get recall fixed. I am not sure if this is related to takata recall, but the dealer says that there is no fix for it yet. I have had the truck 3 months, and still no word on getting it fixed.

Takata recall. The recall date was July 1st, 2016 and the recall status is still incomplete because parts are not yet available. People have died because of these airbag inflators and 4 months in without a remedy in sight is unacceptable.
