• 12/26/2004· AIR BAGS

  THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON FIRST TIME IN MARCH 2003. THE DEALER REPAIRED IT. ABOUT A YEAR LATER FEB 2004 THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THE DEALER SAID I NEED TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND POSSIBLY PAY FOR THE PART AND REPAIR SERVICE. HE DIDN'T THINK MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULD COVER IT. I ALSO EMAILED CHRYSLER AND THEY TALKED TO THE DEALER AND TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO FIX IT. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO REPAIR IT, NOR DO I THINK I AM RESPONSSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT! THAT'S SORT OF LIKE YOUR SEAT BELT NOT WORKING. SAFTEY ISSUES. SHOULDN'T WEAR OUT. WHY HASN'T CHRYSLER PUT OUT A SERVICE BULLITIN???

  I HAVE HAD MY AIRBAG LIGHT COME ON FOR THE SECOND TIME NOW. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER, IT TOOK THEM TWO TIMES TO FIGURE OUT THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT BUCKLE. THIS WAS ONLY AFTER I WAS TOLD THAT IT COULDN'T BE LOOKED AT UNTIL THE LIGHT WAS ON. ABOUT SIX MONTHS LATER, THE SAME THING WAS HAPPENING. I TOOK IT IN TO BE LOOKED AT WHEN I HAD THE POWER STEERING COOLING HOSES REPLACED, AND WAS TOLD THAT THE SEAT BELT TENSIONER IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. OVER A MONTH HAS NOW PASSED, AND I STILL HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED TO BRING MY VAN IN TO HAVE MY PART REPLACED, SINCE THE DEALER HAD TO ORDER IT. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL QUALITY ISSUES AS WELL RANGING FROM INTERIOR COMPONENTS BREAKING OR NOT BEING INSTALLED CORRECTLY, TO THE OVERALL DESIGN OF THIS VAN. NOT TO MENTION, THE VEHICLE ISN'T EVEN TWO YEARS OLD, AND IT IS NOT EVEN WORTH HALF OF THE PRICE I PAID FOR IT, ACCORDING TO THE KELLY BLUE BOOK VALUE.

THE FIRST FAILURE WAS REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY, THE SECOND REPAIR THE DEALER CHARGED FOR. AS THIS IS A SAFETY FUNCTION, AND THE OCCUPANTS ARE EXPOSED TO RISK DURING FAILURE, I BELIEVE TWO FAILURES IN 46,000 MILES IS UNACCEPTABLE AND IS A DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

  SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT ON 19 DECEMBER 2002, MY STEP-SON, AGE 35, AND I WERE DRIVING SOUTH BOUND ON I-35 NEAR PERRY, OK IN MY 2002 DODGE DURANGO. I WAS DRIVING AND MY SON WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, SLEEPING. HE WAS WEARING HIS SEAT BELT. I CHANGED LANES TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE (THIS IS A SOUTHBOUND INTERSTATE) AND WAS TRAVELING AT 70 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED. AS I APPROACHED THE VEHICLE IN THE RIGHT LANE WHICH I WAS PASSING, IT SUDDENLY SWERVED INTO MY LANE (LEFT, PASSING LANE). HER BUMPER CAME IN CONTACT WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY VEHICLE ON THE FRONT QUARTER PANEL NEAR THE WHEEL WELL. (SHE SAID LATER THAT SHE FELT A SLIGHT BUMP WHICH SHE DIDN'T RELATE TO ANOTHER CAR AT THAT MOMENT). AS HER CAR SWERVED INTO MY LANE, I ATTEMPTED TO SWERVE TO THE LEFT TO AVOID HER. AT THE MOMENT THAT I PULLED THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT, HER REAR BUMPER MADE THE CONTACT WITH MY DURGANGO LISTED ABOVE. MY AIRBAG IMMEDIATELY DEPLOYED, STOPPING ME FROM BRAKING OR CONTROLLING THE STEERING. MY VEHICLE THEN WENT ACROSS THE MEDIAN GRASS (EAST BOUND) TOWARDS THE NORTHBOUND TRAFFIC. I COULD NOT SEE ANYTHING DUE TO THE AIRBAG, NOR COULD I STEER DUE TO THE AIRBAG ,NOR COULD I BRAKE DUE TO THE AIRBAG. AS THE AIRBAG BEGAN TO DEFLATE MY THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY DURANGO SLAMMED INTO A NORTHBOUND SEMI TRAILER TRUCK, SPUN AND ROLLED ONCE, LANDING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION. MY 35 YEAR OLD STEP- SON DIED OF HEAD INJURIES. THIS AIRBAG SHOULD NEVER HAVE DEPLOYED. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE (THE GRILL AND ENGINE ARE STILL INTACT, AS IS THE HOOD), EVEN AFTER THE COLLISION WITH THE SEMI TRAILER TRUCK AND THE ROLL OVER. MY DAUGHTER IN LAW HAS FILED SUIT AGAINST ME AND AGAINST CHRYSLER. THAT DOES NOT BRING MY SON BACK. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO BE MADE ACCOUNTABLE TO ALL OWNERS WHO HAVE THIS AIRBAG. THIS AIRBAG SHOULD NEVER HAVE DEPLOYED. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO RECALL ANY OF THEIR VEHICLES WHICH HAVE THIS UNSAFE, UNPREDICTABLE AIRBAG. *AK
