    Have any of your owners of 2008 and 2009 Challengers had your Tanaka air bag inflator replaced, as a result of the recall?

    I called my Dodge dealer and was advised that they had to order the part. It seems odd that they wouldn't have a supply on hand since this was a massive recall.

    Mine is a 10 and I got my notice a few months ago. And like yourself was told the parts are not available yet.

    Dodge has now added the passenger air bag inflator to the recall of the 2009 Challengers (543/NHTSA16V-352).

    You can enter your VIN at the following site to see if your Challenger is affected by the air bag inflator recall (my 2009 SRT is affected):

    I received the recall notice for my 2011 Challenger a few days after trading it in. Same story....no parts.
