Description of the problem | On 05/28/2019 recall's (t61, t79, u53) where all performed on my 2013 dodge ram 1500 pickup truck by the whitten brothers dealership located at: 10701 midlothian turnpike, richmond, va 23235 phone# (804) 378-0707. Before picking up my vehicle the dealership called to notify me of a glitch with the engine light staying in the on position and the second issue had the service airbag coming on randomly. They said it could be fixed but i would have to pay. I didn't agree to this due to none of these issues were occurring prior to my visit. Also, notified them i had worked previously for nhtsa and knew the recalls performed should have cleared out all the warnings and if not they needed to go back and fix them. Sadly they did not fix them. I was given the runaround with random excuses for reason it might be and the topic of "money" kept being brought up. The dealership forged their words on the invoice implying the lights were on prior to service. I explained that i would be filing a report on they're location for the concern that these recall's (t61, t79, u53) were not performed correctly and for inappropriate behavior that was conducted. Nicholas (134510) was the advisor who i spoke with. Invoice# chcs592258 customer# 90932 invoice date: 05/28/19 the suggestion to cover up wires underneath the seats would possible fix the issues. Please feel free to contact by phone# (xxxxx) or email: (xxxxx) i hope this will help others as much as i'm hoping it will help me to get this information out.
