NHTSA Complaint #11501898 — 2008 DODGE SPRINTER 2500

I am reaching out for assistance in resolving a passenger air bag issue in my 2008 Dodge Sprinter RV (Case 84229129 for codes R49 and S14). Fiat/Chrysler(FCA) notified us of a recall associated with both the driver and passenger airbags in September, 2022. We took the vehicle to Bob Brady Chrysler in Decatur, IL for service at FCA’s recommendation. The driver side air bag was replaced without incident. After ten days, Bob Brady advised us they could not complete the repairs and would need to ‘open a Star case’ for escalation. I contacted FCA and was advised they would assist me in finding another dealer to fix the passenger air bag and opened case 84226749 within 5 days on opening the case. We went and picked up the vehicle. The paper work at the time of pick up clearly states, “…with codes present in the vehicle, there is the possibility that in the event of an accident, the airbags may not deploy.” FCA did not respond to the opened case and when we reached back out to them, we were advised the case was closed. Their records indicate both passenger and driver airbags have been repaired and are in working order. When I disputed this, FCA further advised I would need to readdress with Bob Brady as another dealer would not be available to complete the repairs. The SRS warning light remains on within the vehicle. I have attempted contact with Bob Brady’s service manager on several occasions without a response. I am reaching in with a request for assistance to help resolve the issue with the airbag repair.
