Default Urgent Takata Airbag Recall

We’re certain you’ve heard of the Takata Airbag Safety Recall and believe some of you are hesitant to get it completed. It is urgent that you take the necessary steps to repair your affected vehicle to ensure the safety of you and your passengers. In a minor crash, the front airbag(s) on your vehicle may explode due to excessive internal pressure. If this happens, a rupture could result in shrapnel and sharp metal fragments striking vehicle passengers, which may lead to serious injury or death. FCA will repair the vehicle FREE of charge (parts and labor). If you haven’t completed this airbag recall, please share with us why. We care about your safety, and want to understand how we can help to get this addressed. To check if your vehicle is a part of this recall or if you need assistance scheduling an appointment, visit https://www.mopar.com/en-us/my-vehic...ls/search.html or call us at 1-833-585-0146. We look forward to hearing your thoughts.

I know this because I watched them do all the work. And that is all the FCA dealership mechanics/techs did. So I guess my passenger is SOL if we get in an accident.
You got to luv it. FCA and FCA dealerships continue to earn the hearts and minds of their customers.

I digress......

they are 2 separate recalls s43 and r25 with different inflators for each side. Each job has a different line on the work order as each is billed separately. the r 25 work was done so yeah, its complete. the other recall is interium until parts for your vehicle arrive.

You posted a fca dealership was not performing a safety recall and closing the recall as completed.

This did not happen; you were just misinformed


A dealership that would knowingly does this should be out of business, would be open to lawsuits and have their dealership pulled from fca.
