Before you buy
- 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.
- Verify cable-recall completion and any outstanding park-outside instruction.
- Check rearview camera operation and seat belt retraction.
- Ask about collision-warning faults and electrical repair history.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Dodge dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
