Dodge dealership in watsonville ca told me never to bring my car to be fixed by them again, mostly because I have a lifetime warranty and purchased an additional small parts lifetime warranty and every time I take it in to be fixed, it comes out with the same problem. But I digress.. I do not beleive they will call me at all for the recall airbag driver's side repair. It has been at least a year and a half, since the recall was issued.
