"TAKATA RECALL" VEHICLE NEEDS REAPPAIR AND THEY ARE FILING BANKRUPTCY.

TAKATA RECALL , I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL DEALERS ABOUT 10 TIME TO REPLACE AIR BAG. I GET THE SAME ANSWER "WAITING ON NEW AIR BAGS " SO STILL NOT REPLACED , IT HAS BEEN OVER 6 MONTHS. ANT IDEAS ?

FRONT END/STEERING SHAKES WHEN YOU HIT A BUMP OR THE ROAD IS ROUGH. ALL MOST MAKES THE VEHICLE UNCONTROLABLE.

WHILE IN MOTION, WHEN YOU APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE PEDAL WILL TRAVEL TOWARDS THE GAS PEDAL. THIS BRAKE PEDAL BUSHING SEEMS TO BE WORN OUT AND CAUSES THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLIGHTLY SLIDE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT (LIKE A PENDULUM ON A CLOCK). THE GAS AND BRAKE PEDALS ARE FAIRLY CLOSE TOGETHER AND IF YOUR FOOT IS OFF SET ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, YOUR SHOE WILL CATCH THE GAS PEDAL WHEN PRESSING DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS WILL CAUSE THE ENGINE TO SPEED UP WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO STOP THE VEHICLE. TO REPLACE THIS BRAKE PEDAL BUSHING PART SEEMS TO BE NOT IN PRODUCTION ANY MORE AND THEREFORE NO REPLACEMENT IS AVAILABLE ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP. - WATERFORD, MI, USA

TAKATA RECALL, I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL WAS INVALID AND IF I HAD NOT RECEIVED A NOTICE DIRECTLY FROM THE CAR MANUFACTURER THEN THE DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT REPLACE MY PARTS. ANOTHER LOCATION ASKED FOR THE VIN NUMBER, I HAD TO CALL BACK BUT THEY CONTINUOUSLY PUT ME ON HOLD BUT THEN NEVER PICKED UP. I HAVEN'T HAD AN INCIDENT, BUT TO MY KNOWLEDGE THIS INFORMATION AND REPAIR IS SUPPOSED TO BE PREVENTATIVE. I'D RATHER NOT HAVE TO SUE FOR MONEY AFTER I'VE BEEN INJURED IF IT'S NOT NECESSARY. I JUST WANT MY VEHICLE REPAIRED.

FIRST PROBLEM WAS ONE IDIOT LIGHT ON THE DASH INDICATED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ON (AND IT WASN'T). BUT SINCE THE OPERATION OF THE TRUCK WAS NOT AN ISSUE, I CONTINUED DRIVING FOR TWO MORE MONTHS WHILE MORE AND MORE IDIOT LIGHTS CAME ON EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WAS USED, ELECTRONICALLY REPORTING A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE WHEN THERE WASN'T ONE. FINALLY TWO MONTHS LATER, THE TRUCK WOULD NOT START AT ALL OR EVEN TURN OVER. WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED TO START THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE WOULDN'T EVEN CRANK. YET ALL THE IDIOT LIGHTS CAME ON WHICH INDICATED TO ME IT WAS AN ELECTRONIC PROBLEM AND NOT A MECHANICAL ONE LIKE A BAD IGNITION OR BAD BATTERY. AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS, OPENING AND CLOSING THE DOORS ELECTRONICALLY WITH THE KEY FOB ON AND OFF REPEATEDLY, DISCONNECTING AND RECONNECTING THE BATTERY, LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE DOORS MANUALLY, AND EVEN JIGGLING THE STEERING WHEEL, EVENTUALLY THE VEHICLE WOULD START UP COMPLETELY NORMALLY, BUT WITH ALL THE IDIOT LIGHTS ON. THIS WAS ERRATIC AND THERE WAS NO RHYME OR REASON WHY IT WAS HAPPENING OR WHAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM. THE SITUATION CONTINUED LIKE THIS ABOUT A WEEK UNTIL THE ENGINE WOULD NOT EVEN SHUT DOWN WHEN THE KEY WAS TURNED TO THE OFF POSITION. NOT ONLY THAT, SEVERAL TIMES THE ENGINE CONTINUED RUNNING WHEN THE KEY WAS REMOVED AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO STOP THE ENGINE FROM RUNNING EXCEPT SITTING IN THE VEHICLE AND WAITING FOR IT TO SPUTTER TO A STOP, WHICH WAS A COLOSSAL WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY AND A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

TAKATA RECALL - GOOD MORNING.....WE ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH HAVING OUR VEHICLE REPAIRED...WE ARE ON A WAITING LIST FOR PARTS WITH RICK HENDRICK JEEP DODGE IN NORTH CHARLESTON SC....IT TOOK US UNTIL JUNE 13 FOR THE DEALER TO ORDER THE PARTS. WE STILL ARE WAITING FOR THE REPAIR. ACCORDING TO THE DEAL WHEN THE DRIVERS AIR BAG WAS REPLACED WE ARE ONE OF THE VEHICLES WITH THE DEFECTIVE VEHICLE.

I HAD AN ACCIDENT RELATED TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE GRAB HANDLE. I NEVER USUALLY USE IT TO GET INTO THE TRUCK, BUT DECIDED TO USE IT ON JUNE 7TH, 2017. THE TRUCK IS HARDLY EVER DRIVEN AND IN VERY, VERY GOOD CONDITION. THE GRAB HANDLE WAS NOT LOOSE IN ANY WAY PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT AND HAD NEVER BEEN WORKED ON OR REPLACED. WHEN I GRABBED THE HANDLE TO PULL MYSELF INTO THE TRUCK, WHICH WAS STATIONARY AND PARKED IN A DRIVEWAY, THE WHOLE PANEL RIPPED RIGHT OFF AND SENT ME FALLING HARD TO THE ASPHALT DRIVEWAY. I FELL ABOUT 3 FEET. BY THE WAY, I ONLY WEIGH ABOUT 120 LBS. THE FALL CAUSED ME TO BREAK MY LEFT HIP. I LAID IN THE DRIVEWAY SCREAMING IN EXCRUCIATING PAIN AND FOR HELP UNTIL SOMEONE FOUND ME. AN AMBULANCE TRANSPORTED ME TO A HOSPITAL. I HAD A PARTIAL HIP REPLACEMENT DUE TO THE HIP FRACTURE. UPON INSPECTION, IT LOOKED LIKE THE PANEL/GRAB HANDLE WAS SECURED INTO THE BODY OF THE TRUCK BY PLASTIC DISCS AND CLIPS! I WAS SHOCKED AND ASSUMED SOMETHING LIKE THAT WOULD'VE BEEN SECURED BY A MORE STURDY MATERIAL. THIS ACCIDENT HAS BEEN PHYSICALLY AND FINANCIALLY DEVASTATING FOR ME.
