TAKATA RECALL I WAS NOTIFIED OF AN S14 RECALL SOME TIME AGO I THEN CALLED THE DEALER (DULUTH DODGE) TO TAKE CARE OF THE RECALL. MY INFORMATION WAS TAKEN DOWN & I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD CALL WHEN PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. I HAVE SINCE RECEIVED A R49 RECALL & UPON CALLING THE DEALER I WAS TOLD PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE & THAT I SHOULD CALL BACK IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS. I WAS TOLD THAT CHRYSLER WOULD NOTIFY ME WHEN PARTS WERE AVAILABLE, THIS WAS DIFFERENT INFORMATION THAN THE FIRST RECALL ; TWO DIFFERENT STORIES. WHAT DO I BELIEVE & HOW DO I GET THESE RECALLS RESOLVED.

THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED WITHOUT ELECTRIC LOCKS BUT THE VAN DOESN'T HAVE A WAY OF UNLOCKING/LOCKING THE TWO FRONT DOOR FROM THE INTERIOR. MEANING IF THE PASSENGER WANTED TO UNLOCK/LOCK HIS DOOR HE COULDN'T. THE ONLY WAY OF LOCKING THE DOOR IS FROM OUTSIDE WITH THE KEY. I HAVE READ NHTSA DOOR LOCK REGULATIONS AND IT SAID THAT ALL DOORS MUST BE ABLE TO BE LOCKED/UNLOCKED FROM THE INTERIOR. WAS THIS RULE IN EFFECT IN 2006 WHEN THIS VEHICLE WAS PRODUCED? I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE MANUFACTURE FIX THIS PROBLEM IF THE VAN WAS NOT SAFETY COMPLIANCE WHEN IT WAS PRODUCED.
