Dave, if you have taken the time to read the voluminous information on this issue, you might not have posted what you posted. The older airbags are dangerously degrading in high heat/humidity locations (without the desiccant pack internal to the ammonium nitrate package). The prioritized zone replacement is sound, I also think those who bought their cars new should be scheduled/fixed first (within the zones priority). Interim measures should have been taken if the 'lead time' is long, ALL owners should be kept informed. Chrysler is doing NONE of this (so far as anyone knows). Where is their CUSTOMER SERVICE? Have they ordered any replacements? If so what is the estimated delivery and schedule of replacement. Can they install new bags lacking the desiccant since they degrade on a set schedule (being 6 to 9 years in these zone 1 locations). If it is an agreed interim fix until manufacturing 'ramps up' then at least that is something. They are giving us NOTHING (those of us who are affected by this fiasco). Chrysler knew about these airbags LONG before we were given notice. NHTSA required/ordered these recalls.
Chrysler is not at fault for the defective airbags, they are at fault for so far doing NOTHING to serve their customers (in the case of our crossfires). All the automakers were forced to recall. In my opinion, Chrysler is dragging their collective feet with regards to the recalled 07/08 crossfires. Their name is on the car, not Mercedes Benz, not Fiat, not any other name. They are required to do what they were ordered to do, seems like they don't want to. I believe they want us owners to get tired of this whole recall, and trade our cars in. In the case of those of us with an LPW, that saves them a whole lot of money and effort down the road. Can I prove that? Probably not, but I'll not be hurt by their lack of action based on their record of almost 6 months inactivity as experienced by me.
You say the only one suffering is me? I say every owner dealing with the 07/08 crossfire airbag issue is losing. Losing faith in a company who is treating their customers with disrespect and apathy. NHTSA recently (before this airbag recall) mentioned Chrysler is lacking in customer service (part of the volumes of .pdf files associated with the Takata recall on the NHTSA website), in my opinion and the past 6 months, they (Chrysler) is doing everything to continue this, onward.
