"TAKATA RECALL" DRIVING ABOUT 55MPH, AN ACCIDENT OCCURRED WITH MY DODGE JOURNEY, HITTING A GUARD RAIL AND MAKING THE CAR CRASH AND HAVE A ROLLOVER. NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED, CAUSING INJURIES TO THE PEOPLE IN THE VEHICLE.

I RECEIVED TWO RECALLS ON THE ABOVE VEHICLE. THE FIRST SAYS THE ENGINE BEAUTY COVER MAY COME LOOSE AND COME IN CONTACT WITH CATALYTIC CONVERTER RESULTING IN A FIRE. THE SECOND HAS TO DO WITH A GROUND WIRE ON THE RIGHT FRONT SHOCK OF THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE MODULE. THE WIRE ALLOWS WATER TO WICK THROUGH INTO THE ABS MODULE WHICH CAN DISABLE THE ABS AND/OR THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL. THE LACK OF FUNCTIONING ABS AND/OR ESC SYSTEMS COULD CHANGE THE BRAKING AND/OR HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VEHICLE AND CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.

I HAD A AUTO ACCIDENT I FEEL WAS CAUSED BY THIS BRAKE RECALL. MY BRAKES HAVE FAILED AGAIN. LUCKLY NO ONE ELSE WAS AT STOP SIGN. I CALLED IMMEDIATELY WHEN I HOT THE NOTICE AND THEY CAN NOT FIX MY BRAKES UNTIL AUG 31 I WAS ON A CITY STREET EACH TIME

MY TIRES ARE LEAKING AIR AND COMPLETELY BALLED, MY CAR HAS 27,000. I THINK SINCE WE'VE DONE ALL THE PROPER MAINTENANCE THEY SHOULD HAVE LASTED A LOT LONGER.
