2002 Dodge RAM 1500

I HIT A TREE DOING 45 MPH NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED ON EITHER THE DRIVERS OR PASSENGER SIDE OF THE TRUCK. I HAD SEVERE DAMAGE TO MY FACE AND I AM FACING TWO MORE OPERATIONS IN THE NEXT YEAR. CAUSE FOR AIR BAGS NOT DEPLOYING IS UNKNOWN BUT CHRYSLER CORP HAS CHECKED THE COMPUTER AND FOUND NO CODES IN THE COMPUTER TO CAUSE THE AIR BAGS NOT TO COME OUT. THE TRUCK WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THEY HAVE NOT FOUND OUT WHY THEY DID NOT DEPLOY. *JB

I WAS TRAVELING ON A DIRT ROAD WHICH IS ALL WE HAVE IN THE AREA AND THE LEFT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT CAUSING ME TO LOSE CONTROL OF MY 2002 DODGE RAM WHICH THEN PLOWED OVER SEVERAL TREES AND FINALLY COMING TO REST HEAD ON IN A GROUP OF 3 TREES TOTALING MY TRUCK. THE FRONT END OF THE TRUCK WAS MORE THAN EXTENSIVELY DAMAGED AND THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY CAUSING NECK AND BACK INJURIES AS WELL AS MY TOOTH BEING BROKE IN HALF. DAIMLER CHRYSLER WAS NOTIFIED AND SCANNED THE ON BOARD COMPUTER AND STATED THAT SINCE NO CODES SHOWED UP THAT THE AIR BAGS WERE FULLY FUNCTIONAL. *JB

ON JUNE 4TH,2005 MY WIFE HAD AN ACCIDENT IN A 2002 DODGE PICKUP. ON HER WAY TO WORK SHE WAS DRIVEING AROUND 45 MILES AN HOUR. UNTIL A CAT RAN IN FRONT OF HER BY REFLAX SHE TRIED TO AVIOD THE CAT SO SHE SWERVED TO THE RIGHT AND STRUCK A MAILBOX THEN SHE SWERVED TO THE LEFT TRYING TO GIAN CONTROL OF THE TRUCK. THEN WHILE TRYING TO GIAN CONTROL SWERVED BACK TO THE RIGHT GOING OVER A DITCH AND ENTERING PRIVATE PROPERTY. THEN SHE STRUCK A PINE TREE WHICH ALSO STRUCK SOME POWER LINES. WHEN SHE CRASHED INTO THE PINE TREE THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY ALSO THE SEAT BELT DIDN'T LOCK ETHIER. MY WIFE HIT THE STEERING WHEEL WITH THE CHEST AND HER ELBOWS. AGTER SHE HIT THE STEERING WHEEL SHE BOUNCED BACK TOTHE SET WHICH CAUSED HER NECK PIAN AND LEFT SOULDER AND HER LEFT SIDE OF HER LOWER BACK. WHICH LEAD TO HER DAMAGEING HER LOWER BACK SHE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO THE EMERGNCY ROOM BY AN AMBULANCE. THEN I CALLED CHRYSLER ON JUNE 6TH 2005 THEY ASKED ME FOR MY VIN NUMBER OF MY TRUCK. THEN THEY LIED TO ME ABOUT CALLING, SENDING A LETTER,SEND A FAX TO THE BODYSHOP WHERE MY TRUCK AT, AND EACH TIME I CALLED THEY ALWAYS CHANGE INFOMATION AND THEY HAVEN'T TOLD ANYTHING REGARDING TO MY TRUCK. OLD PARTS ARE STILL AVAILABLE. THIS THE REFERENCE NUMBER 137455235 THE REPORT NUMBER FROM THE STATE TROOPER IS FHPA05FF024427.

WHILE DRIVING AT INTERSTATE SPEED (70 MPH), AND SWITCHING LANES WHILE ON A BRIDGE, THE EXCESSIVE BOUNCING AND BAD SUSPENSION OF TRUCK MAKE ME LOSE CONTROL OF THE TRUCK. THE TRUCK PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND THE REAR END OF THE TRUCK ENDED UP SPINNING AROUND, MAKING A COMPLETE 180--- ON A BRIDGE!! I ENDED UP SLAMMING INTO THE SAFETY RAIL OF THE BRIDGE. AND THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T GO OFF. LUCKILY, I WASN'T INJURED. AT FIRST I THOUGHT THE ACCIDENT WAS MY FAULT, BUT AFTER TALKING TO A FEW OWNERS OF THIS MODEL, I FIGURED OUT THAT MANY OF US HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THIS TRUCK. THE QUESTION IS, WHY IS THIS PROBLEM NOT BEING FIXED?? I HAVE TALKED TO THE DEALER, AND THEY JUST KEEP REFERRING ME TO DEALERS FROM OTHER TOWNS. *JB
