Dodge Ram 1500 and Durango Recalled
Roughly 145,000 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 pickups will be recalled to replace passenger airbags and airbag computer systems. Some of the trucks will also have front passenger seat belts replaced because they don’t allow certain child restraint systems to be properly installed. Dodge says the recall is being implemented because the current airbag system isn’t compatible with a limited number of rear-facing child seats in certain conditions.
Dodge Durangos from the 2001 – 03 model years are also being recalled because of potential fires when a drink spills on wiring between the seats. About 35,000 of the SUVs are affected. There is no word on any customer complaints about either recall.
