MY HUSBAND AND I WERE IN A WRECK 01/02/06 WITH HIS 97 DODGE DAKOTA SLT CLUB CAB, WE HIT 2 DEER AT 50-55 MPH HEAD ON. OUR AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WE NOTIFIED CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS MATTER. THEY SENT OUT A SPECIAL INVESTIGATOR TO GO OVER THE TRUCK TO SEE WHY THEY DID NOT DEPLOY, WE WERE ADVISED BY MY HUSBANDS INSURANCE COMPANY TO BE PRESENT AT THE TIME OF INSPECTION, WE TOLD THIS TO CHRYSLERS SPECIAL INVESTIGATOR. MY HUSBAND WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE TRUCK WAS TO BE TAKEN TO THE SI DIDN'T SHOW UP MY HUSBAND CAME HOME, I CALLED THE BODY SHOP THAT HAD THE TRUCK AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE SI HAD COME AND LOOKED AT THE TRUCK THERE AND THEN WAS WANTING IT TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I TOLD THE BODY SHOP NOT TO ALLOW THE TRUCK TO BE MOVED WITHOUT US PRESENT, THEY WENT AHEAD AND DID IT ANYWAY. ALONG WITH CONTACT OVER THE AIRBAGS WITH CHRYSLER I WAS MADE AWARE OF 1 RECALL, THAT WE HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF. NOW IN MY RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND 5 RECALLS THAT WE WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF. I WAS INJURED IN THE ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING, I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS. WE HAVE NO VEHICLE AT ALL, CHRYSLER IS DRAGGING THEIR FEET ABOUT DOING ANYTHING AS FAR AS TELLING US ANY DETAILS OF THE INVESTIGATION. WE ARE THINKING ABOUT POSSIBLY REPAIRING THE TRUCK, THIS WILL TAKE MONEY THAT WE DO NOT HAVE TO FIX, THE TRUCK HAD LIABILITY ONLY INSURANCE. WE LIVE ON A FIXED INCOME, MY HUSBAND IS DISABLED, I AM CURRENTLY NOT WORKING AND IF I WERE I WOULD HAVE BEEN FIRED FOR NOT BEING ABLE TO GET TO WORK. DUE TO ALL THE RECALLS ON THIS TRUCK THAT WE HAVE JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT AND THE AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING AND THIS BEING OUR ONLY TRANSPORTATION, WE WOULD JUST LIKE TO SEE THE VEHICLE REPLACED, BUT NOT WITH CHRYSLER WITH A COMPETITOR, WE ARE NOT ASKING FOR A BRAND NEW VEHICLE AND ALSO TO HAVE MY MEDICAL BILLS PAID. *JB
