DODGE Complaints

I HAVE INSTALLED A BLUE DRIVER DIAGNOSTICS TOOL TO MY VEHICLE AND REPORTED THAT I HAVE A RECALL FOR MY VEHICLES AIRBAG (PLEASE SEE ATTACHMENT), BUT WHEN I CALLED CHRYSLER/DODGE HELP DESK AND SAID THAT I DON'T HAVE ANY RECALL LISTED IN MY FILE. WHEN I CALLED BLUE DRIVER COMPANY THEY SAID THAT INFORMATION IS CAME FROM CHRYSLER. IT'S SAYS IN THE RECALL INFO (BLUE DRIVER) THAT ITS FREE OF CHARGE, BUT WHEN I CALLED CHRYSLER HELP DESK, THE DEALER WILL CHARGE ME FOR DIAGNOSTICS. I JUST WANT TO KNOW IF THIS RECALL FROM BLUE DRIVER CAR DIAGNOSTIC COMPANY'S RECALL REPORTS AN ACCURATE RECALL INFORMATION, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE INFORMATION SO THAT IS WHY I'M CONCERN ABOUT IT. HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME. THANKS!

FIRST WAS A/C ELECTRICAL ISSUES 3 TIMES AND EVEN HAD DASHBOARD PULLED APART ALONG WITH RADIO MAIN CONTROL SCREEN GOING IN AND AS OF 4/4/2018 IM NOW HAVING ABS TRACTION CONTROL WITH STEERING PROBLEMS WHEN STARTING TURNING DRIVING..ALL ISSUES SINCE BUYING MY CAR BRAND NEW IN 2016 (LEMON LAWS? PLEASE HELP) ONLY 44K MILES NOW AND DEALERSHIP SAYS ITS NO LONGER COVERED.

WE HAD AN EXHAUST LEAK, AND WE DIDN'T THINK THAT IT WAS A BIG DEAL MAYBE A BROKEN SEAL. I NOTICED THE LEAK WHEN I USED MY REMOTE START IN THE MORNING.TURNS OUT THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WARPED AND BROKE BOLTS! THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED SOME SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE IF IT HADN'T BEEN LOOKED INTO. I LOOKED AT OTHER DODGE DURANGO OWNER SITES AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AMONGST OWNERS OF THIS MAKE AND MODEL.
