The contact owns a 2006 Dodge Dakota. The contact stated the vehicle received a recall repair regarding the air bags. The dealer stated that they replaced the air bag inflator as indicated in the recall but, in order to turn the air bag warning light off, another repair was needed. The vehicle was not repaired and the air bag light remained illuminated. The contact spoke with other dealers who stated that if the air bag inflator were replaced, then the vehicle's air bag warning light should not be illuminated. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 123,000.
