Takata recall. The dealership wants me to sign a waiver if they break my dash, that I am responsible. I called Dodge recall, anf D they say the same thing. Why should I have to pay for their mistakes or poor workmanship? they are trying to discourage people from getting the necessary repairs none to preserve corporate profits. I bought this truck new.
