Takara inflators April 28th 2019 we took our truck to the Dodge dealership to have the recalls fixed as they requested. Mainly the airbags and they did a 28 point inspection. July 1st 2019 someone pulled out in front of my husband and they were involved in a bad accident. The airbags never went off. My husband hit the steering wheel so hard there's a bruise and mark on his chest and the shape of the steering wheel. It also messed up the steering column and the gear selector. The truck is totaled the frame is bent the suspensions ripped off but we can't figure out why the airbags didn't go off. Insurance is being a pain. Dodge said they'd send out an investigator so far no one showed up. Something should be done about this.

While driving, my seat belts lock up and will not allow any movement - holding the occupant tightly to the back of the seat, inducing tremendous anxiety. With each movement of the occupant, the seatbelt tightens. Seatbelt must be unbuckled to releave pressure.

My husband was driving a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 when the front left tire blew. For a few seconds he was able to keep control of the truck but then it made a sudden jerk to the left and pulled him off the road, he fought it for a few more seconds until it did the sudden jerk thing again to the left and he slammed into 2 oak trees where the seat belt failed and he was ejected from the truck. After impact and me running to the truck I noticed he had been ejected, began looking for him then the air bag went off. There were several things wrong with this whole thing and I am just now getting a recall notice on the left tie rod ball stud.what about the seat belt and air bag delay? if this is what cause the sudden jerking to the left now all my questions have been answered. Just wish it would have been released sooner maybe I wouldn't be a widow at the age of 41!
