Today in the mail I got the T25/NHTSA 17V-302 recall notice to ensure the seat belt pretensioner will work in a rollover accident.

Any of you actually take your RAM in for this yet?

Damn, damn, damn.....

I was hoping to someday buy a vehicle WITHOUT a freaking recall.

Are ALL the 2016's included?

One of the downsides of so much automation in manufacturing is that engineering design and component flaws can take hundreds of thousands of units before being detected.

The plus side is automation vastly reduces human error which would lead to far more headaches for owners, but probably involve too few individual vehicles to force a manufacturer's recall (so no redress), and automation lowers the cost of production.

And I don't think my '12 is effected.

I haven't gotten a notice yet but I think if I do I'm going to wait for awhile. It might be easier to just try and keep your wheels on the ground.

That's my thought for the moment. I will get to having the repair done as my time allows and until then try not doing any stunt driving. :driver:

I wouldn't even bother with it. I hate dealing with the dealer**** as it is... I'll just try my best not to roll it and worst case, maybe my 16 won't be recalled. BUT.. I guess if it is and I roll it, I won't have to go to work the next day.. BONUS!

Got mine for my 15 yesterday. I thought it was interesting that even the seat belts are computer controlled instead of a simple inertia lock.

Hmm my 16 hasn't gotten anything yet. But if it does I will take it in. My dealership always gives out brand new grand cherokees when the truck is in.

My ram was being serviced last week and was at their dealer for over 5 days. They told me there was no active recall... and then I get my notice today in the mail. A little annoyed they didnt fix it when I first dropped it off.

I guess it wasnt "official yet"

Hey develand,

www.mopar.com/en-us/my-vehicle/recalls will show you if the recall affects your vehicle--it's a little faster than waiting for the notice in the mail!

I carried my truck in to get serviced on Thursday. Dealer said i had a recall. It took them 20 minutes to do the update. Easy and fast.
