Consumer Description

THE STEERING GETS HARD TO TURN LIKE IT IS GOING TO LOCK UP. I SPRAY IT WITH WD40. THIS HAPPENS EVERY FEW DAYS. THE ELECTRICAL HAS BEEN SCREWED UP FOREVER. I TURN THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL ON THE THE RIGHT ONE BLINKS AND VISE VERSA. SOME TIMES THEY BOTH BLINK BACK AND FORTH. I HAVE TALKED TO THE LOCAL DODGE GARAGE AND ALL THEY SAY IS THAT THERE IS NO RECALL. I WASNT NOTIFIED BY DODGE ABOUT THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG EITHER. LOOKED UP THE VIN NUMBER AFTER SEEING A REPORT ON TV. THAT WAS 2 MONTHS AGO AND THE DODGE GARAGE JUST FIXED THE AIR BAG ON JULY 21 AFTER I CALLED THEM FOR THE SECOND TIME TO SEE IF THE PART WAS IN. UPDATED 10/07/15*LJ UPDATED 12/08/2017*CN
