The 2010 Dodge Ram 3500 has 3 recalls, all involving frontal airbag inflators on both the driver and passenger sides that can explode or rupture in a crash, sending metal fragments into the cabin.
Both the driver-side and passenger-side frontal airbag inflators can build excessive internal pressure during deployment and burst apart rather than inflate normally. When that happens, metal shrapnel from the inflator housing can fly toward the driver, front passenger, or others in the vehicle, with the potential to cause serious injury. Prior repair attempts for some of these inflators did not fully resolve the issue, which is why the affected population was expanded over time to include additional trucks.
