Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2010 Dodge Ram 3500, Ram 4500/5500, 2010-2011 Dodge Dakota, 2010-2014 Dodge Challenger, 2010-2015 Dodge Challenger, Chrysler 300, and 2010-2016 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. Upon deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator to explode.
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger's frontal air bag, the inflator could explode with metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants potentially resulting in serious injury or death.
Owners are advised not to drive their vehicle until the recall repair is complete. Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag inflator, free of charge.

(PAB) I HAVE 2 RECALLS ON MY 2014 DODGE CHARGER THAT ARE SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS. THE AIR MAY EJECT METAL FRAGMENTS INTO THE INTERIOR OF CAR WHICH COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH UPON COLLISION. I ATTEMPTED SEVERAL TIME TODAY TO GET ASSISTANCE FROM CHRYSLER/DODGE WITH A LOANER/RENTAL CAR UNTIL MY VEHICLE COULD BE FIXED. THE AIR BAGS NEEDED TO RESOLVE THE SAFETY ISSUE WILL NOT BE IN UNTIL AFTER FEB 26TH CAUSING ME NOT TO HAVE ADEQUATE SAFE TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM WORK AND FOR MY FAMILY. I LIVE IN A RURAL AREA WITH 2 LANE HIGHWAYS AND TRAVEL 49.5 MILES ONE WAY TO WORK EACH DAY WITH DEER AND OTHER ANIMALS CONSTANTLY RUNNING INTO THE ROAD. I WAS TOLD BY CHRYSLER THAT I JUST NEED TO BE CAREFUL DRIVING BUT WAS ADVISED BY INSURANCE AGENT TO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL FIXED AS ACCIDENTS HAPPEN UNANNOUNCED AND DAILY. NOONE WITHIN THE CHRYSLER ORGANIZATION WAS WILLING TO ASSIST ME WITH A RENTAL OR LOANER VEHICLE. I WAS CALLED BY AN AGENT WHO SET AN APPOINTMENT FOR MONDAY, FEB 18TH @ 3:30 KNOWING THAT THE AIR BAG WAS NOT IN STOCK. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET AND EXHAUSTED WITH THE 4 + HOURS I SPENT ON THE PHONE TODAY TO NOT RECEIVE ANY RESOLUTION. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE FROM CHRYSLER AGAIN AND REALLY NEED A SAFE RIDE FOR MYSELF, WIFE, 5 AND 6 YEAR OLDS, AND 2 WEEK OLD SON TO TRAVEL UNTIL THIS ISSUE CAUSED BY CHRYSLER IS RESOLVED.

THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO BE REVVING AND SLOWING ITSELF DOWN AROUND THE 30 MPH AREA. THERE IS A JERKING MOTION AROUND THIS SPEED AS WELL. IT IS ACTING LIKE IT WANTS TO SHIFT, BUT CAN'T. WHEN I GET UP PAST 28-31 MPH THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY, BUT I AM AFRAID THAT IT MIGHT STICK AS SOME POINT AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT! I HAVE HEARD IT IS A KNOWN TRANSMISSION PROBLEM FROM A MECHANIC FROM DODGE. I KNOW IT ASKS WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN, WELL, IT HAPPENS EVERYDAY I DRIVE IT!

Vehicle speed control, Jan 14, 2019
WHILE DRIVING, I CONDUCTED A NORMAL PASS ON A TWO LANE ROAD. WHEN I PRESSED THE ACCELERATION PEDAL, THE CAR TOOK OFF AT A DRAMATIC PACE. THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE WELL OVER 100 MPH. DRAGGING THE BRAKE KEPT THE CAR FROM CONTINUING TO ACCELERATE TO ITS FULL CAPACITY. SHIFTING IN NEUTRAL HAD NO EFFECT AS THE ENGINE MAINTAINED ITS FULL RPM. WHILE IN NEUTRAL, THE CAR'S COMPUTER WOULD NOT ALLOW THE ENGINE TO BE SHUT OFF DISPLAYING A MESSAGE THAT THE CAR HAD TO BE IN PARK BEFORE THAT WAS ALLOWED TO HAPPEN. PLACED THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, APPLIED FULL BRAKING, AND BROUGHT THE CAR TO A STANDSTILL AS THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN AT FULL RPM. SHIFTED TO PARK AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. I LET IT SIT FOR 10 MINUTES AND STARTED IT AGAIN. CAR PERFORMED NORMAL. DODGE HAS A KNOWN ISSUE/RECALL FOR THE SAME SITUATION WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL AND I BELIEVE THE ISSUE IS PRESENT WHILE NOT USING CRUISE CONTROL AS WELL. LESS THAN A MONTH AGO, THE CAR WAS SERVICED AT THE LOCAL DODGE DEALER UNDER THE RECALL TO CORRECT THE CRUISE CONTROL ISSUE. *DSY
