Airbag light and service airbag system warning constantly on. Airbag system deactivated. Very dsngerous if collison were to hsporn. Told my vin is not included in recall p67, which is the issue i am having. This seems to be a common problem with multiple reports of not being included in the recall yet experiencing the same safety issue that is covered under recall p67.

The air bag light stays illuminated and tells me to get the air bag system serviced for no reason. It has not been in any accident and just out of the blue came on and remains on. There was a recall on 2014 dodge durango and mine should be included in that recall.

Unfortunately this is a huge expense to fix at a dealership (over $700 just for the part plus shop hours making it about a $1000 expense not covered by…

The airbag light will frequently illuminate and disable seat belt tensioners and airbag function. Same thing that is under recall with other durango vehicles (recall p67). Dodge claims my specific vehicle is unaffected and not under recall but i find it hard to believe since the exact same issue is occurring. Any grand cherokee model made the same day as my vehicle, or the exact same durango if manufactored two…
