TAKATA INFLATORS. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS REPAIRED FOR OVER A YEAR AND I USE MY TRUCK A LOT BUT AM AFRAID TO CARRY MY WIFE AND CHILDREN IN THE TRUCK. WE USUALLY CAMP QUITE OFTEN DURING THE SUMMER BUT I CAN'T PULL OUR RV FOR WORRYING ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY THAT IF WE'RE IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIR BAGS MAY INJURE OR EVEN KILL MY FAMILY. AS LONG AS IT'S BEEN SEEMS LIKE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. I WOULD RATHER HAVE MY AIRBAGS TURNED OFF BUT THE DEALER SAYS THEY CAN'T. I WOULD RATHER DO WITHOUT THE AIRBAGS RATHER THAN TAKE A CHANCE THAT THEY COULD DO MORE HARM THAN GOOD. LOOKS LIKE I NEED TO GET RID OF THE TRUCK AND PURCHASE A TRUCK THAT I CAN CARRY MY FAMILY IN.

WHEN I TURN ON THE LEFT BLINKER,THE RIGHT ONE FLASHES ON MY TRUCK. THEN I TURN ON RIGHT BLINKER AND THE LEFT BLINKER FLASHES. ALSO THE WIPERS WILL SOMETIMES STOP OR SLOW DOWN WHEN I HAVE MY BLINKERS ON. THIS IS GONNA CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THANK YOU *TR
