As it turns out, the Japanese auto makers aren’t the only ones having airbag issues lately. According to a report in the Detroit News, Chrysler has put out a recall on some 2011 and 2012 model Dodge Chargers, Dodge Challengers, and Chrysler 300s that were built between April and December of 2011. The recall that Chrysler filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is related to a wiring problem that could cause the air bag warning light to go on without anything actually being wrong with the system.

Unlike the Japanese car maker’s recall, the Chrysler airbag issue is only with the warning light and there doesn’t seem to be any danger of the airbag exploding without warning.

If you own one of these cars, don’t worry – there doesn’t seem to be any threat of the airbags inadvertently punching you in the face when you go to resent your mileage or anything. The Detroit News says that the problem was discovered after they received a few complaints about the airbag warning light coming on. They looked deeper into the problem and discovered a terminal in the seat’s side air bag that was causing the issue.

Chrysler says that this recall affects around 119,500 cars in the United States, and about 18,880 cars in other countries. That’s a grand total of just over 138,000 Chargers, Challengers, and 300s, and Chrysler says that the problem only actually effects about 4-percent of those cars. All in all, it’s a minuscule amount compared to the 3 million cars recently recalled by Toyota, Honda, and Nissan for air bags that might seriously harm you.    

Chrysler has also issued a recall on several of their SUV models related to driveshaft breakage and fuel system problems, so if you own one you might want to call your dealer to see if your model falls under the recall.
