I contacted Dodge about the recall and they have no solution a but to sit and wait for airbags to come in. However, in the interrem my wife won't get in the truck. They will not offer any help or resolution. What am I to do" we contacted fca and they offer no solution. Do we have to wait until we reck and someone is killed before the government will force them to supply us with a safe vehicle? is there something else that we can do"
