A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single owner can see from inside their own car.

NHTSA investigations into the 2008 Dodge Sprinter 2500

An investigation is the step before a recall: the agency has seen enough complaints to look into a pattern itself. An open one means it thinks something may be wrong and nothing has been fixed yet.

1 investigation is still open.

EA21002 Opened 17 Sep 2021 Still open AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

Desiccated Air Bag Inflator Rupture

From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at www.nhtsa.gov/sites/nhtsa.gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.pdf.C...

Recalls on the 2008 Dodge Sprinter 2500

A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

17V478000

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:PASSENGER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

Daimler Vans USA, LLC (DVUSA) is recalling certain 2007-2009 Freightliner and Dodge Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vehicles. These vehicles are equipped with certain air bag inflators assembled into the passenger frontal air bag modules used as original equipment or replacement equipment. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger frontal air bag, these inflators may rupture due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to absolute humidity and temperature cycling.

Risk: An inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death.

16V077000

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

Daimler Vans USA, LLC (Daimler Vans) is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 Dodge Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vehicles manufactured July 1, 2006, to July 31, 2008, 2007-2014 Freightliner Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vehicles manufactured July 1, 2006, to July 1, 2014, and 2010-2014 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 2500 and 3500 vehicles manufactured July 1, 2010, to July 1, 2014. Upon deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator to rupture.

Risk: In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants potentially resulting in serious injury or death.

13V213000

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Road Rescue is recalling certain ambulances built on model year 2008 Dodge Sprinter 2500 chassis from April 2008 through December 2008. The failure of a power disconnect solenoid terminates the flow of electricity to the ambulance conversion.

Risk: When the electrical power is interrupted, the siren, warning lights, and patient compartment lights may not operate. There may be a loss of power to life saving equipment in the patient compartment. In the event of an emergency, the ambulance may not be able to alert other vehicles of its presence, slowing its trip to the hospital and increasing the risk of a crash.

SEAT BELTS

MERCEDES-BENZ IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2008-2011 2500 AND 3500 SPRINTER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN OPTIONAL THREE-SEAT BENCH IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. THE SEAT BENCHES IN THE SECOND SEATING ROW MAY HAVE BEEN EQUIPPED WITH SAFETY BELTS THAT DO NOT MEET THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD 208, "OCCUPANT PROTECTION IN INTERIOR IMPACT," AND MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD 209, "SEAT BELT ASSEMBLIES." FIRST, THOSE SAFETY BELTS MAY NOT LOCK AS REQUIRED. SECOND, THE ASSEMBLY LOOP MAY NOT PERFORM TO MINIMUM FORCE REQUIREMENTS.

Risk: IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE SAFETY BELTS IN THESE VEHICLES MAY NOT PERFORM AS REQUIRED SUCH THAT A SEAT OCCUPANT MAY NOT BE PROPERLY RESTRAINED, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH.

Canada runs its own recall programme, and its campaigns do not always mirror the American ones.

Recall 2011179 180 units in Canada

Seats And Restraints

Certain vehicles, with the optional three-seat bench in the second seating row, may have been equipped with seatbelts that were certified to European standards, but fail to comply with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 209 - Seat Belt Assemblies. Due to incorrect load limiter mounting, the assembly loop is unable to withstand the forces specified by the Standard. Failure of the seatbelt to restrain the seat occupant as intended would increase the risk of personal injury during a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the seatbelt assemblies.

Recall 2008324 31 units in Canada

Suspension

On certain vehicles, the rear leaf springs may fail earlier than designed due to an incorrect manufacturing process. This situation could increase the risk of a crash resulting in personal injuries or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the rear leaf springs.

Recall 2008149 38 units in Canada

Other

On certain vehicles, C-pillar head impact protection pads were omitted during vehicle assembly. This could increase the risk of injury to rear seat occupants during a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, install head impact protection pads.

I am reaching out for assistance in resolving a passenger air bag issue in my 2008 Dodge Sprinter RV (Case 84229129 for codes R49 and S14). Fiat/Chrysler(FCA) notified us of a recall associated with both the driver and passenger airbags in September, 2022. We took the vehicle to Bob Brady Chrysler in Decatur, IL for service at FCA’s recommendation. The driver side air bag was replaced without incident. After ten days, Bob Brady advised us they could not complete the repairs and would need to ‘open a Star case’ for escalation. I contacted FCA and was advised they would assist me in finding another dealer to fix the passenger air bag and opened case 84226749 within 5 days on opening the case. We went and picked up the vehicle. The paper work at the time of pick up clearly states, “…with codes present in the vehicle, there is the possibility that in the event of an accident, the airbags may not deploy.” FCA did not respond to the opened case and when we reached back out to them, we were advised the case was closed. Their records indicate both passenger and driver airbags have been repaired and are in working order. When I disputed this, FCA further advised I would need to readdress with Bob Brady as another dealer would not be available to complete the repairs. The SRS warning light remains on within the vehicle. I have attempted contact with Bob Brady’s service manager on several occasions without a response. I am reaching in with a request for assistance to help resolve the issue with the airbag repair.
