The 2007 Dodge Sprinter 3500 has 4 recalls, the most serious being a defect affecting both the driver and passenger frontal airbags, where the inflator can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin, potentially causing serious injury or death.
The airbag issue covers both seating positions and represents the most urgent concern on this vehicle. On the engine side, the crankshaft sensor on 3.0L diesel models can fail and cause the engine to stall without warning, cutting drive power and raising the risk of a crash depending on road and traffic conditions. There is also a brake system concern: certain vehicles were assembled with a brake fluid reservoir sized for the lighter 2500 model rather than the 3500, which does not meet the certification requirements for this vehicle.
