This is an update to a previous complaint. I received a recall back on November 2016 from fca. I contacted fca regarding the recall and they told me they didn't have the parts and would put me on a priority list and contact me when they had the parts. Still have not received any type of contact and its now April 24th 2017. I have emailed Dodge corporate office regarding the safety issue of my vehicle asking for a new vehicle with no safety recall issues or complete my recall. Have not received a response from them. I went to Dodge and asked when my car will be fixed, they told me they do not have the parts and could only do it now if it was safety related. "which it clearly is." I have received no information on when the parts will be available or offered an alternative to ensure I am driving a safe vehicle. It is clear Dodge is doing nothing to ensure the drivers of their vehicles are safe. I'm writing on here in hopes to get help to get my vehicle fixed or get a vehicle that is safe to drive. It is Dodge obligation to fulfill one of these. I will continue to contact everyone I possible can to make sure Dodge is held accountable for this and to solve Dodge problem.
I received a recall on my 2011 Dodge Avenger back in November 2016. I called the recall company listed on the recall notice and informed them of the VIN on my vehicle. They told me that they did not have the parts and would contact me when they did. Great!! I then called stockton Dodge and informed them if the same information in which I got the same answer. I was pretty understanding at first. Then two months pass and no call or email. I then call both back and get the same answer. Again trying to be understanding. At this point I started researching the recall and found the information above. I asked several outside sources and they informed me if it was safety related. (which if I'm not mistaken it is) to go to the dealership and demand to have the vehicle fixed. At this point it's two months later and I head over to stockton Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram. Also at this point my seat belt pretensioner in the passengers seat is jammed and the end is stuck buckled. I go into the service center and inform them there is a recall on my car and I've been waiting months for the parts to come in. I also inform them if the seat belt issue. All they tell me is that the parts aren't in and the only way to have it done now is if it is safety related. They pull up the recall, scanning it and tell me it's not safety related. I was amazed by what I heard. Then the one service working told me there was no one there to check my seat belt at the time. I then asked the individual how it wasn't safety related when there was a possibility my airbags wouldn't deploy and my cars seat belt was already not working. He looked at me with a blank stare and again told me they didn't have the parts. I left pretty upset. How does a company sell U a car that is not safe, then knowing it's not safe' do nothing about it. It's outrageous. Till this day my vehicle has not been fixed.
I purchased this vehicle in January 2017. I am afraid to drive it due to the safety issue NHTSA recall number 16V-668. I contact the dealer weekly and I'm told that there is "no remedy available yet". I need to know how dangerous this is and if the car is safe to drive. Thank you for your time. Sincerely, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I was in a recent accident that caused over $4,500 in damage to the front end of my 2011 Dodge Avenger. I hit the vehicle in front of me travelling at over 20mph and the airbags did not deploy and I braced myself against the steering wheel and thankfully was not injured. There are currently two open recalls for the airbag and seat belt restraint. The police officer on scene was bewildered that the airbags had not deployed, and I'm not certain they would work or not with the active recall due to the two main safey features of this vehicle. Currently the vehicle is being "tested" by Dodge/Chrysler group but they have yet to provide me with a loaner vehicle till they deem the car is in fact safe to drive and operate. I refuse to get behind the wheel of a car in the event I'm in another accident and the two safety devices I rely on do not work. Dodge/chysler is refusing to answer any inquiries I have and I am taking legal action against them at this time.
20plus mile per hour front end accident, police statement that air bags should of deployed. No airbags no seat belt tensioner. Driving my fault rear ended a vehicle estimated speed 20 plus mph. Airbags didn't deploy and my seat belt didn't hold me tight at all my head went to steering wheel. There should be no debate on whether or not my seat belt should of held tight. No help from a company that is ok with its customers driving death traps.
We are being told that the recall on the car has no fix to it. If this is true why aren't we getting our money back? I will be upside down about 5,000, how is this fair to make me pay off a car I had to trade in due to safety problems.
