Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. Verify power-loss, steering rack, and airbag fastener recall completion.
3. Request camera, stability warning light, and spoiler recall records.
4. Inspect exterior lights and ask about electrical or engine problems.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Dodge dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
