2008 CHRYSLER ASPEN 4X4 Air Bags Problems

TAKATA RECALL-THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR HOUSING MAY RUPTURE WHILE DEPLOYING DURING A CRASH. THE POTENTIAL FOR SUCH RUPTURES MAY OCCUR IN SOME OF THE SUBJECT AIRBAG INFLATORS AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF EXPOSURE TO PERSISTENT CONDITIONS OF HIGH ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY AND/OR HEAT AGING. IN THE EVENT OF A FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR RUPTURE, METAL FRAGMENT(S) COULD PASS THROUGH THE AIRBAG CUSHION MATERIAL, WHICH MAY RESULT IN ADDITIONAL INJURY OR DEATH TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS. WHY IS THERE NOT A FIX FOR THIS AND IF THERE ISN'T ONE WHY IS THE VEHICLE NOT BEING RECALLED AND THOSE OF US WHO HAVE IT BEING COMPENSATED APPROPRIATELY TO GET A NEW VEHICLE! MAYBE CONTACTING A LAWYER WOULD HELP. IF SOMEONE I LOVE IS INJURED OR KILLED BECAUSE OF THIS THERE WILL BE A LAWSUIT!

THE AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY CHIMING ON AND OFF. THE AUTOMATIC TRUNK DOOR OPENS AND THEN SHUTS ABRUPTLY WITH FORCE WHICH CAN CAUSE SERIOUSLY INJURY. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE AND THAT I WOULD NEED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND HAVE IT ASSESSED. VERY FRUSTRATING TO HAVE TO PAY THE DEALERSHIP FOR ISSUES THAT REALLY SHOULD THE MANUFACTURERS RESPONSIBILITY!!! SHAME ON CHRYSLER FOR NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE DEFECTS!!! *TR

HIT A DEER TRAVELING AT OVER 50 MPH HEAD ON AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DAMAGE TO THE CAR WAS EXTENSIVE INCLUDING THE FRONT BUMPER, GRILL AND HEADLIGHTS. THE DEER WAS ESTIMATED TO WEIGH OVER 200LBS. MY WIFE AND 2 SMALL CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR, EVERYONE IS FINE BUT IT DAWNED ON US AFTERWARD THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE FUTURE AND THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE SAFETY FEATURES OF OUR VEHICLE. I HAVE WRITTEN CHRYSLER AND HAVE NOT GOTTEN A RESPONSE. *TR
