I have attempted to contact my local dealership several times to replace the airbags on this recall. They claimed months ago, stated “It’s on back order” and took my info claiming they’d contact me when the parts are in. They never contacted me. I keep attempting to make appointments with Lithia Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat of Tri-Cities 7171 W. Canal Dr, Kennewick WA Recalls aren’t handled by a live person, just an automated message stating “we’ll get back to you soon” They don’t. I’ve been trying to get this replaced for a year. I would lien someone to contact Dodge or this dealership and ask them to stop hiding from mandatory recalls.

I have an 05 Dodge Magnum RT 5.7L Hemi, that intermittently stalls after filling the gas tank, and continues to do this until gas goes down a little. After dealing with/living with this problem for a while, I finally took my car to a shop and told them what was happening. They told me I needed to replace the right fuel pump module, which I did. This was 02/19/2016, at a cost of $287.94. The car had78,728 miles on the vehicle at this time. This did not fix the problem. I told the shop this, and I was told they couldn't find any other problem. After which I learned to live with it by not filling the tank up all they way. Recently I was not paying close enough attention when putting gas in, because I was washing my windshield. The car filled up until the pump clicked off. Upon leaving the gas station in morning rush hour traffic, my car immediately stalled. I was nearly rear ended. it took about 10 to 15 seconds to restart it. I was able to make the next green light to merge onto freeway, so I didn't need to slow down. (I should mention that the stalls only occur at slow speeds and stops, after the car has been filled with gas.) I had to slow way down to merge, and my car again stalled. I finally go it to start again only to have this happen 6 more times in stop and go traffic in 1 mile! Even though I was able to get to the right shoulder of the freeway until I could turn off, I caused major traffic delays. After telling a a co-worker about this, he told me he has the exact same car, which had the exact same problem. He then informed me there was an lifetime warranty to fix this problem, and his was fixed under this warranty a couple of months ago. I have found information regarding this warranty on-line, but nothing comes up when I enter my vin, even though it is the exact same year, make, and model of all the other cars that were fixed. I keep my car in top shape. It has no other issues than this...and I have been dealing with it since 2015!

All 4 tires is less then 4 years old made on same date one tire has separate completely around the bead the others has started doing the same thing this car was my late wife’s car and I gave it to my daughter and she really takes care of it all maintenance is kept up that is how I found the problem doing a break job on the car it looks like someone took a knife and cut the bead perfectly around the bead and the othe 3 is doing the same thing I took one tire back to discount tires where I got them and they have the really bad one All tires has the same code RBLF DD5R1120 ProTouring AS P215/65/R17

Airbag lights suddenly always on. Unknown if they are working or about to deploy. Hesitation in transmission while shifting, not sure if working properly. I haven't had any recalls fixed on this vehicle. It showed recalls and suddenly it shows all repaired. Is it due to the year?2005? Seat belts don't retract and are have to be manually maneuvered.

The malfunction to report is after fueling the vehicle will stall out. There is the sign of the fuel sending unit and fuel pump cycling after the ignition is turned on. This only occurs after topping off the fuel. The safety of operation is the stalling may occur while driving as well as at sitting still. When driving and the vehicles stalls causes the steering wheel to stiffen and the must come to a complete stop, placed in park, turn off the ignition and wait for the possible reset. The problem has not been reviewed on my particular vehicle but has been reported by other 2005 Magnum owners. No other manufacturing process has inspected my vehicle. And there are no warning lights that come to indicate there is a problem.

Vehicle has stalled 3 times in past year and won't start back up. I have mechanic fix fuel pump and other related parts to fuel. It is very unsafe. The car just stalls driving and wants to start but dies on me.

I AM EXPERIENCING AN ENGINE STALL AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK. I HAVE STALLED AFTER JUST LEAVING THE GAS STATION ON MAIN ROADS AND EVEN THE HIGHWAY WHEN TRAFFIC IS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 65+. THERE HAVE BEEN NO ACCIDENTS TO REPORT TO LAW ENFORCEMENT SO I DONT HAVE RECORD OF THAT. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER BEFORE TO ASK ABOUT THE RECALL BUT THEY ONLY SAID IT WAS NOT ON THE LIST AND I DID NOT RECEIVE A CALL BACK. I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE MY VEHICLE IN FOR INSPECTION. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR AT LEAST A FEW YEARS (I DONT HAVE AN EXACT TIME FRAME) BUT ONLY THIS LAST YEAR DID THE ENGINE LIGHT COME ON. I HAD THE CODE CHECKED WHILE THE LIGHT WAS ON AND IT WAS NOT FOR THE AFOREMENTIONED ISSUE, SO I DONT THINK MY VEHICLE IS REGISTERING THE STALLING.
