, I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT ON DECEMBER 15 BECAUSE MY BRAKES FAILED AND WAS HURT ACROSS MY CHEST. THE IMPACT WAS STRONG BECAUSE FOR A MOMENT I LOST TIME, BUT THE HOSPITAL DIDN'T GIVE ANY BRAIN SCANS. MY CHEST HURT SEVERELY FOR A MONTH AND I STILL FEEL PAIN WHEN I LIFT OR MOVE A CERTAIN WAY. ANYWAY I AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE WONDERED WHY MY AIRBAG DID NOT GO OFF. I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET MY CAR OUT OF THE POUND FOR LACK OF MONEY BUT THE FRONT WAS MUCH DAMAGED. WOULD THIS FALL UNDER THE RECALL THAT GOING ON WITH THE TAKATA CORP.

THE BODY CONTROL MODULE HAS FAILED, WHICH CONTROLS ALL THE INTERIOR LIGHTS AND THE HEADLIGHTS. AS OF A MONTH AGO THERE WERE OVER 150 PEOPLE WAITING ON THIS PART IN CHRYSLER'S SYSTEM. CHRYSLER HAS NOW INFORMED ME THIS PART IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE AND WILL NOT BE MADE AGAIN, WHICH RENDERS MY TRUCK ONLY SAFE TO DRIVE IN THE DAYTIME. THEY SAY TO GO TO THE AFTERMARKET, BUT THERE ARE NO AFTERMARKET COMPANIES MAKING THIS COMPUTER MODULE. MY FCA CASE NUMBER WAS 30705404
