I WAS JUST NOTIFIED FOR A PROBLEM WITH MY AIR BAG. I HAD ANOTHER RECALL ABOUT MY GAS FILLER TUBE, REPAIRED BY DODGE. I WAS NOT NOTIFIED ABOUT ANY OF THE FRONT SUSPENSION RECALLS OR PROBLEMS WITH THE WHEEL BEARING. THIS PART FAILED ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO AND I HAD IT REPLACED BUT NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL. I STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL WHEEL BEARING PART THAT WAS GIVEN ME AT REPLACEMENT. WHAT IS GOING ON? IS MY FRONT END GOING TO FAIL WHILE MY FAMILY IS DRIVING IT? I ONLY HAVE 89,000 MILES ON MY TRUCK. I WOULD LIKE AN ANSWER.
