2008 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 Air Bags Problems

JEEP TIPM FAILURE NUMEROUS TIMES. HEADLIGHTS STOP WORKING COMPLETELY, AIRBAGS REPORTEDLY NON WORKING, WINSHIELD WIPERS WORK WHEN THEY WANT TO, HORN BLOWS ON ITS OWN. DOOR LOCKS CYCLE ON THEIR OWN. ENGINE WONT SHUT OFF WITH THE KEY UNLESS UNHOOKING THE BATTERY.

Mileage: 82,500

TIPM- DOOR LOCKS SHORTED OUT, FUEL PUMP QUITS STRANDING THE VEHICLE ON THE STREET, WILL NOT RESTART WITHOUT PULLING AND RESETTING THE IOD FUSE, CAUSES AIRBAG LIGHT TO FLASH FAULT, REAR WIPER QUITS. THIS MAKES THE VEHICLE UNSAFE OR UNABLE TO BE USED. VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT NEW AND WOULDN'T THINK MUCH ABOUT THIS IF THROUGH RESEARCH I HAD NOT FOUND HOW MANY FAILURES EXPERIENCED BY MANY HAVE BEEN RELATED TO THIS PARTS FAILURE RATE. PARKED THE VEHICLE AND WHEN WENT TO RESTART IT IT WOULD NOT RESART, THEN THE DOORS STARTED LOCKING AND UNLOCKING REPEATEDLY LOCKING ME OUT OF THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEYS IN IT. I RESET THE IOD FUSE AND IT STARTED. THEN GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY THE WARNING LIGHTS IN THE DASH STARTED FLASHING, AIRBAG, TCS, ANTI THEFT, TIRE PRESSURE, ABS, STABILITY CONTROL ALL CAME ON THEN VEHICLE SHUT OFF. IT WOULD START THEN RUN FOR A FEW SECONDS AND DIE. THROUGH RESEARCH I FOUND THIS TO BE RELATED TO THE ANTI THEFT IN THE TIPM-. TRIED REPLACING THE DOOR LOCK FUSE AND IT STARTED ARCING AND SMOKING. VEHICLE IS PARKED NOW WITH A TIPM- ON ORDER. AS STATED PREVIOUSLY, I BOUGHT THIS JEEP NEW AND IF IT WAS NOT SUCH A WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH CHRYSLER PRODUCTS I WOUL NOT THINK MUCH ABOUT A PART FAILURE AT TEN YEARS.

Mileage: 101,000

COMPLAINTS INVOLVING AIRBAGS- I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT HITTING A TREE, TWO CARS AND ROLLING OVER AND NO AIRBAGS INFLATED.

IN OCTOBER 2016 TOOK MY CAR IN FOR OIL CHANGE AND THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME OF A RECALL OF CLOCK SPRING. I HAVE HAD MY CAR IN 4 TIMES FOR FAULTY CLOCK SPRINGS. MY AIRBAG LIGHTS AND HORN GO OFF AT RANDOM TIMES SOMETIMES MY HORN NEVER WORKS AND MY AIR BAG LIGHT GOES CRAZY WITH THE HORN...LIKE THE CAR IS POSSESSED.

Mileage: 145,000

RE: S33 / NHTSA 16V - 290 AND S43 I HAVE ATTENDED THE APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER AND THEY RETAINED THE JEEP FOR 4 DAYS REGARDING A RECALL. AFTER 4 DAYS I PICKED UP THE JEEP, BUT, THE CAME WITH THE EXCUSE THAT THEY WERE WAITING FOR THE PART IN QUESTION. I CAME UPSET, BECAUSE HOW THEY COORDINATED AN APPOINTMENT WITHOUT HAVING THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING. AFTER THAT I HAVE CALLED TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOLLOWING UP FOR THE INSTALLATION OR REPLACEMENT OF SUCH PART. THE RECALL NOTICE ALSO DESCRIBED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD AN OPEN RECALL (S43). THIS WAS ALSO A SURPRISE BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN VERY DILIGENT DEALING WITH SAFETY ISSUES. THE DEALER IN PUERTO RICO IS CABRERA HRMNOS IN ARECIBO , PUERTO RICO. I WILL APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT TO SOLVE THIS SAFETY SITUATION. REGARDS, PD: I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH MY PERSONAL INFORMATION. *TR

I WENT TO SELL MY JEEP TO JEEP DEALER THEY SAID THERE IS A RECALL ON AIRBAGS WITH REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE NO DEALER WILL BUY MY JEEP AND THIS IS NOT RIGHT, NOW I AM DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE BECAUSE NO REMEDY AVAILABLE FOR AIRBAGS. *TR

"TAKATA RECALL" WE ARE WAITING TOO LONG FOR THE REMEDY WHEN WILL IT BE FIXED?

TAKATA INFLATORS:THE RECALL WAS SENT OUT JULY 1, 2016. AS OF OCT. 20, THE STATUS IS "INCOMPLETE, PARTS NOT AVAILABLE." APPARENTLY, ON IMPACT, THE INFLATOR CAN SPEW METAL PARTS, PIERCING THE AIRBAG AND CAUSING THE EVER (UN)POPULAR "INJURY OR DEATH" TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS. I THINK 3 1/2 MONTHS IS WAAAAY LONG ENOUGH FOR JEEP TO COME UP WITH A REPLACEMENT PART, OR AT LEAST OFFER TO DISABLE THE AIRBAG. I'D RATHER TAKE MY CHANCES, THAN HAVE A DEFECTIVE PART KILL ME, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. *TR

Mileage: 128,236

TAKATA RECALL. I AM TRYING TO GET THIS FIXED SO THE CAR CAN GO BACK ON THE ROAD. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL.

AIR BAG LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. MY ISSUE SEEMS CONSISTENT WITH RECALLS DUE TO CLOCK SPRING FAILURE IN RIGHT HAND MODEL JEEPS. CALL TO CHRYSLER CONFIRMED AS SUCH, BUT THEY WON'T COMMIT TO FIX UNTIL RECALL INVESTIGATION UNDERWAY IS CONCLUDED.

AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY. A RECALL WAS ISSUED BUT NOT FOR THIS VIN.

AIR BAG DASH LIGHT WOULD COME ON WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT BUT WOULD GO OFF WHILE TURNING A CORNER. DEALER DIAGNOSED PROBLEM AS A "CLOCK SPRING" AND CHARGED ME $384.20 (P&L) TO REPLACE IT ON 3/12/15

Mileage: 60,040

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON. HORN AND CRUISE ALSO QUIT WORKING WHEN THIS OCCURRED. REAR ENDED A LADY LAST FALL AND AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY, NOT SURE IT SHOULD HAVE BUT STILL DIDN'T. CAN NOT EVER FILL THE GAS TANK FULL DUE TO FUEL SPILLING OUT OF THE FILL TUBE ONTO THE GROUND, CAN GET SLIGHTLY MORE THAT 3/4 FULL.

Mileage: 65,000

THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE FOR THE RIGHT HAND DRIVE MODELS THAT YOU ALREADY MADE JEEP EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON. THE CLOCK SPRING IS FAULTY AND REQUIRES REPLACEMENTS OVER THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. JUST MAKE THE SAME WARRANTY AVAILABLE FOR THE LEFT HAND DRIVE MODELS. WE ARE NOT IN ENGLAND, WE DRIVE FROM THE LEFT SIDE.......

Mileage: 139,000

THE CLOCK SPRING FAILED AND NOW THE AIRBAG, HORN, AND CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK. IT STARTED WITH A CLICKING NOISE IN THE STEERING COLUMN WHEN TURNING, THEN AFTER A POPPING NOISE EVERYTHING MENTIONED STOPPED WORKING. AFTER RESEARCH THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME EXACT ISSUE BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED.

Mileage: 65,000

JUST PULLED OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. TURNED RIGHT AND THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF. AND NOW CONTINUES TO GO OFF AND DING EVERY COUPLE OF MINUTES.

Mileage: 108,000

WHEN DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT DIRECTION AT ANY SPEED THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. THE LIGHT WILL GO OUT WHEN TURNING BUT WILL COME BACK ON WHEN THE WHEEL IS STRAIGHT AGAIN. ALSO THE HORN WILL NOT SOUND ( NO FUSE ARE BLOWN) PROBLEM BELIEVED TO BE CLOCK SPRING.

Mileage: 136,000

AIRBAG LIGHT CONSTANTLY ON AND DIGGING. HORN INTERMITTENTLY DOES NOT WORK. HAPPENS RIGHT WHEN YOU TURN THE IGNITION ON AND START THE VEHICLE AND DOES NOT GO AWAY UNTIL IGNITION IS TURNED OFF.

Mileage: 85,000

I AM ALSO HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY AIRBAG LIGHT. COMPUTER CODE GIVES THE B1B06- CLOCK SPRING, WHICH JEEP HAS RECALLED FOR RHD BUT NOT LHD. THIS MAKES NO SENSE, SEEING AS HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH THIS AS WELL. I'VE CONTACTED JEEP NUMEROUS TIMES TO COMPLAIN. THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE FIX, A FACTORY PRODUCT SAFETY ISSUE THAT JEEP SHOULD COVER! NOT ONLY IS THE CONSTANT WARNING SOUND A NUISANCE EVERY OTHER MINUTE, BUT WHEN THE LIGHT IS ON THE AIRBAG IS DISABLED. JEEP, TAKE RESPONSIBILITY.

Mileage: 100,000

POSSIBLE FAULTY CLOCK SPRING ISSUE AS SEEN IN MANY OTHER JEEP WRANGLERS MADE AFTER 2007. AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON WITH AUDIBLE WARNING EVERY OTHER MINUTE AND SIGNALS THE DRIVER THAT THERE COULD BE A FAILURE OF THE AIRBAG OR EARLY DEPLOYMENT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY JEEP BUT THEY HAVE CHOSEN TO ONLY PURSUE RIGHT HAND DRIVE RHD JEEPS EVEN THOUGH MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN ISSUED BY LEFT HAND DRIVE LHD JEEP OWNERS AS WELL. JEEP ADMITTED THE ORIGINAL CLOCK SPRINGS WERE FAILING AND SAID THEY WERE WORKING ON A NEW ONE. I CALLED JEEP YESTERDAY AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED, BUT THAT I SHOULD HANG ON TO MY BILLS IN CASE IT EVER BECOMES COVERED. I ONLY HAVE 30,500 MILES ON MY JEEP. MANY OWNERS HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS AND ONLY A FEW HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF. THIS IS A FACTORY PRODUCT SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY JEEP.

Mileage: 30,500

AIR BAG FAILURE. LIGHT COMES ON AND ALARM. DEALER SAID THERE IS NO RECALL. THIS IS EXPENSIVE TO FIX AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I SEE RECALL FOR RIGHT HAND DRIVE BUT NO LEFT HAND DRIVE.

Mileage: 110,000

THE AIRBAG CLOCK SPRING IN MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER HAS STOPPED WORKING. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AFTER NOTICING THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMING ON AND HE SAID THE CLOCK SPRING HAS STOPPED FUNCTIONING, AND IF I WERE TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT IT WOULD NOT DEPLOY AND I WOULD PROBABLY BE KILLED. CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE FIX BECAUSE THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR MY YEAR. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO BE THE ONE TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE AIRBAGS ARE NOT A WEAR AND TEAR PART AND SHOULD BE MADE PROPERLY

ON THE 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FLASHES ON EVERY OTHER MINUTE WITH A CHIME, AN INDICATION THAT THERE IS SOMETHING MALFUNCTIONING OR INTERFERING WITH THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS. THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE AND CONCERN FOR MANY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) OWNERS, INCLUDING MYSELF, AND HAS BEEN SHOWN TIME AND TIME AGAIN TO BE CAUSED BY A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING WITHIN THE VEHICLE'S STEERING WHEEL. THIS FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS THE CULPRIT FOR POTENTIAL AIRBAG FAILURE IN THE 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DURING AN ACCIDENT OR PREMATURE DEPLOYMENT WHEN SIMPLY DRIVING AROUND. DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY CONCERN OF THEIR FAULTY CLOCKSPRING THAT CAN CAUSE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS FROM PROPERLY DEPLOYING. UPDATED WITH MORE INFO FROM COMPLAINT # 10818674

Mileage: 62,000

AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED TO GO ON AND OFF INCLUDING A WARNING SOUND AROUND 40,000 MILES. IT COMES ON AND STAYS ON FOR A WHILE AND THEN GOES OFF AND COMES BACK ON. BELIEVED TO BE RELATED TO THE CLOCKSPRING.

Mileage: 40,000

CLOCK-SPRING FAILED, AIRBAGS INOPERATIVE

Mileage: 105,000

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE RIGHT. HORN WORKING INTERMITTENTLY AND CRUISE CONTROL UNEXPECTEDLY TURNING OFF.ALL ISSUES SEEM TO BE HAPPENING WHILE MOVING AND TURNING.

Mileage: 91,100

MY CHECK AIRBAG LIGHT IN INTERMITTENTLY LIGHTING AND CHIMING. AFTER SOME RESEARCH THE PROBLEM MATCHES EXACTLY WITH A CLOCK SPRING PROBLEM THAT WAS ISSUED RECALLS FOR THE 2007 MODEL AND THE 2008 RIGHT-HAND DRIVE MODELS. MINE IS A 2008 LEFT HAND DRIVE WITH NO RECALL ON THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND PART AS THE OTHERS.

THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND DINGS EVERY 30 SECS, THE HORN DOESN'T WORK. I MADE AN APT WITH THE DEALERSHIP THERE WAS NO SENSE OF URGENCY TO GET ME IN, DROPPED IT OFF ON A FRIDAY TO BE TOLD TO BRING IT BACK TODAY. THEY QUICKLY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS AIR BAG CLOCKSPRING WIRING FAILURE AND EXPLAINED IF I WERE IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIR BAGS WOULD NOT DEPLOY. THIS IS A $420.00 FIX TO REPAIR A SAFETY ISSUE, AND LUCKY FOR ME THEY HAPPEN TO HAVE THE PART JUST LAYING AROUND. SOUNDS TO ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP. JEEP HAS A RECALL FOR RIGHT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES BUT NOT FOR THE LEFT LIKE I HAVE.

Mileage: 183,000

CLOCKSPRING FAILURE RESULTING IN AIRBAG LIGHT/ALARM GOING ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING.

Mileage: 111,000

MY 2008 WRANGLER RUBICON HAS AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WARNING BELL RINGING. THE LIGHT AND BELL RING AFTER VEHICLE IS STARTED AND IN MOTION. IT WILL OCCASIONALLY RESET BUT THEN RETURN AFTER A FEW MINUTES OF DRIVING. IT HAPPENS UNDER ALL CONDITIONS OF DRIVING. TROUBLE CODE INDICATES AIRBAG ISSUE. DEALER STATES CLOCKSPRING IS DEFECTIVE. I'M VERY CONCERNED THAT AIR BAGS WON'T DEPLOY OR MAY FALSELY DEPLOY AND POSSIBLY INJURE ME OR MY PASSENGERS.AFTER LOOKING INTO THIS IT APPEARS THAT HUNDREDS OF FELLOW JEEP OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME CLOCKSPRING FAILURE ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A RECALL ISSUE BY THE MFG. THIS COMPLAINT IS TO BE CONSIDERED AS A FORMAL COMPLAINT/CONCERN ABOUT A SAFETY ISSUE AND WILL BE A RECORD IN THE EVENT THAT SAID PART FAILURE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR DEATH OR INJURY

Mileage: 70,000

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED BLINKING AND DINGING ON AND OFF EVERY 30 SECONDS OR SO. WHEN DIAGNOSED AT DEALERSHIP THEY ARE SAYING IT'S A CLOCK SPRING MALFUNCTION.

Mileage: 86,000

WHEN TURNING ON THE VEHICLE THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND HAS REMAINED ILLUMINATED SINCE. THE LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY GOES OUT WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS AT OR NEAR FULL DEFLECTION IN EITHER DIRECTION. BASED ON MY RESEARCH IT IS LIKELY A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING, WHICH HAS BEEN RECALLED IN THE 2007 MODEL BUT NOT 2008, DESPITE IT BEING AN IDENTICAL PART INSTALLED IN A NEARLY IDENTICAL VEHICLE. THIS INDICATION IS A DIRECT ISSUE OF SAFETY AS IT SHOWS THERE COULD BE A FAILURE OF THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT.

Mileage: 83,500

MY AIRBAG SENSOR IS CONTINUOUSLY COMING ON AND OFF. I NOTICED THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON RIGHT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES BUT I SUSPECT THERE IS SOMETHING TO THIS. AS WELL...MY ELECTRICAL SYSTEM IS ALWAYS ON THE FRITZ. SOME DAYS THE RADIO WORKS...SOME DAYS IT DOESN'T. MY ENGINE LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON AND NO ONE FINDS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE ENGINE...

Mileage: 180,000

AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON. SEEMS TO BE MORE FREQUENT DURING TIMES OF DAMP CONDITIONS OR HIGH HUMIDITY.

Mileage: 144,567

I TURNED MY JEEP ON THIS MORNING AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYED ON FOR A COUPLE OF EXTRA SECONDS, SO I SAY OK. WHEN DRIVING IT STARTED GOING ON AN OFF EVERY 10 SECONDS ESPECIALLY WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY SAY BAD CLOCK SPRING, SO I CHECK FOR RECALLS AND THEIR IS ONE FOR THE 2007 JEEP FOR CLOCK SPRING BUT NOT FOR THE 2008 MODEL WHICH HAS PRACTICALLY THE SAME AS THE 2007. I'S AN EXPENSIVE PART AND IT SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR IT. I HAVE READ ABOUT A LOT OF 2008 MODELS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM I HAVE.

Mileage: 80,000

WHILE DRIVING, AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT TURNS ON WITH A SINGLE WARNING CHIME. AFTER 5-10 SECONDS LIGHT GOES AWAY BUT RETURNS SOON AFTERWARDS AGAIN REMAINING ON FOR 5-10 SECONDS. SEEMS TO OCCUR MORE DURING CITY DRIVING THAN HIGHWAY DRIVING. I VIEW THIS AS A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE JEEP OWNER'S MANUAL STATES, "AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IN YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL COULD MEAN YOU WONT HAVE THE AIRBAGS TO PROTECT YOU IN A COLLISION." I HAVE ALSO HEARD THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON 2008 JEEP WRANGLERS.

Mileage: 59,913

THE AIRBAG LIGHT AND CHIME COME ON INTERMITTENTLY AND THE FAULT READS DRIVERS SQUIB. IT IS RELATED TO A CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN. JEEP HAS RECALLED THE 2007 MODEL YEAR WRANGLERS AND 2008 RHD WRANGLERS BUT NOT THE LHD. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THIS IS WHAT CONTROLS THE DRIVERS AIRBAG IN A CRASH. JEEP NEEDS TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND MAKE THE NEEDED REPAIRS. IF YOU LOOK ON DIFFERENT WEB SITES THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. AMERICA WHAT HAPPENED TO BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS, LETS PASS THE BUCK SOME MORE AND PLAY THE BLAME GAME. ENOUGH JEEP STAND UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AFTER ALL YOUR BRAND NAME IS ON THE PRODUCT. *TR

Mileage: 79,500

THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. CHECKED CODES. CODE FOR AIR BAG CLOCKSPRING. JEEP RECALLED 2007 MODEL WRANGLERS FOR THIS PROBLEM. SAME PART NUMBERS AS NEWER JEEP CLOCKSPRINGS. WHY HASN'T JEEP EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE NEWER JEEP MODELS.SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SLOT OR JEEP WRANGLERS ARE EXPERIENCING.

Mileage: 116,000

AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS TURNING OFF AND ON FOR NO REASON.

Mileage: 61,000

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, BLINKING INTERMITTENTLY, INDICATING A LOSS OF COMMUNICATION WITH THE AIRBAG CIRCUIT., ISSUE APPEARS TO BE A BAD AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY. JEEP HAS RECALLED RHD VEHICLES OF THE SAME MODEL YEAR, BUT NOT LHD.

Mileage: 92,000

THIS IS A KNOWN AND COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE JEEP WRANGLER. THEY HAVE ALREADY RECALLED THE 2007 MODEL YEARS FOR FAULTY AND POORLY DESIGNED CLOCK SPRINGS AND HAVE MADE A REPLACEMENT PART THAT IS MUCH BETTER. THEY HAVE RECALLED THE 2008 ONLY RIGHT HAND DRIVE JEEPS. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN GIVING THE FACT THAT IT AFFECTS THE CRUISE CONTROL, AIR BAGS, AND HORN. SHAME ON THEM FOR NOT WANTING TO CORRECT AND REPAIR A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE! *TR

I WAS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY IN PARK WITH MY VEHICLE RUNNING AND MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON. IT IS A BAD CLOCK SPRING CAUSING THE ISSUE.THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS OTHER 2008 MODELS WITH SAME PROBLEM A BAD CLOCK SPRING. CHRYSLER WILL NO FIX THIS ON LEFT HAND DRIVE VEHICLE ONLY RHD.. I TOOK THIS FROM A FORUM WHERE I GUY CALLED CHRYSLER. (I HAVE A LIFETIME WARRANTY AND PRETTY MUCH JEEP TOLD ME TO GO POUND SAND ON IT. THEY KNOW OF THE PROBLEM AND UNTIL FORCED BY THE NHTSB OR WHOMEVER THAT IS THEY SAID, THEY WILL NOT WARRANTY IT AT ALL.) *TR

Mileage: 95,000

AIRBAG LIGHT AND CHIME COME ON INTERMITTENTLY, BUT NEARLY CONSTANTLY. THIS INDICATES THAT THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. BASED ON ONLINE RESEARCH, THE LIKELY CAUSE IS THAT THE CLOCK SPRING HAS GONE BAD, AND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR JEEP WRANGLERS FROM 2007 TO PRESENT. THERE IS NOT, HOWEVER, A RECALL THAT COVERS THE REPLACEMENT OF THE CLOCK SPRING, SO OWNERS ARE STUCK WITH A BILL TO THE TUNE OF $500 IF THE WANT TO FIX IT AND HAVE WORKING AIRBAGS. *TR

I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (IPM). IT IS CAUSING MY SAFETY BAG LGHT TO COME ON (NOT KNOWING IF IT WOULD DEPLOY) BUT THAT IS NOT THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THE MODULE. IT'S ALSO CAUSING MY FRONT LIGHTS TO COME ON WHEN THE CAR IS OFF AND I AM GETTING ELECTRICAL SHOCKS EVERY TIME I TOUCH MY DOOR. THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUE IS IT SOMETIMES TURNS OFF OR I CAN'T TURN IT ON BECAUSE MY ELECTRONICS GOES COMPLETELY OFF. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE WHEN IT HAPPENS I GO INTO THE BOX REMOVE AND REPLACE THE CABLE OR PLUGS AND IT STARTS WORKING. I WOULD HATE THIS TO HAPPEN WHEN I'M DRIVING, WHICH WOULD CAUSE MY POWER STEERING AND SHIFTING TO LOCKUP LEAVING ME WITH NO OPTIONS AND MAYBE WITH NO SAFETY BAG. I KNOW THIS TO BE TRUE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAS TURNED OFF ON ME WHEN I WAS LEAVE MY PARKING SPACE AT WORK. I COULD NOT TURN OR SHIFT THE VEHICLE BECAUSE ALL THE ELECTRONIC TURNED OFF. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACE MY BATTERY TERMINAL CABLE (BATTERY TO THE IPM) DUE TO CORROSION. *TR

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATES AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE VEHICLE IS RUNNING. A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM AS: B1B02 - DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT OPEN, AND B1B06 - DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB 2 CIRCUIT OPEN. THESE ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY FOR WHICH JEEP ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN IN DECEMBER 2011 FOR 2007 MODELS ONLY. THERE WAS ALSO A RECALL ON 2008 JEEP WRANGLER JKS FOR THIS ISSUE BUT IT ONLY APPLIED TO RIGHT HAND DRIVE MODELS.

IN JUNE OF 2011, MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) HAD TO BE SERVICED DUE TO THE ILLUMINATION OF THE AIRBAG LIGHT. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THIS WAS DUE TO A MALFUNCTION OF THE CLOCKSPRING AND WAS REPLACED. AT THE TIME, MY JEEP HAD ABOUT 52000 MILES. I JUST ENCOUNTERED THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN AND TOOK MY JEEP BACK IN TO THE DEALER. I AM NOW HAVING TO REPLACE THE CLOCKSPRING A SECOND TIME AND MY VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 74500 MILES AS OF THIS MONTH (DECEMBER 2013). I AM VERY FRUSTRATED BECAUSE NOT ONLY DOES JEEP NOT COVER THESE MALFUNCTIONS (TWICE!), BUT IT IS ALSO A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY WITH A DEFECTIVE CLOCKSPRING/ILLUMINATED AIRBAG LIGHT. JEEP HAS ISSUED A RECALL ON THE PART FOR THE 2007 MODELS AND THE 2008-2012 (RHD) MODELS ONLY. UNFORTUNATELY, THOSE OF US WITH DEFECTIVE CLOCKSPRINGS IN OUR 2008-2012 LHD MODELS ARE FORCED TO PAY AN AVERAGE OF $500 FOR THE REPAIR OR BE FORCED TO DRIVE IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE WITH AN AIRBAG SYSTEM THAT WILL NOT DEPLOY. NOT ONLY HAS MINE GONE OUT ONCE, BUT TWICE! IN BOTH CASES, MY CLOCKSPRING HAS MALFUNCTIONED WITHOUT ANY KNOWN CAUSE. THIS WAS VERIFIED BY THE TECHNICIANS WHO REPLACED THE PARTS. THIS IS A CENTRAL SAFETY COMPONENT AND A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. THIS IS NOT A COMPONENT THAT SHOULD JUST WEAR OUT LIKE BRAKES AND TIRES. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO REPLACE IT EVERY SO OFTEN LIKE GETTING AN OIL CHANGE. I CAN UNDERSTAND (PERHAPS) GETTING A FAULTY PART, CALL IT BAD LUCK, BUT NOT GETTING THE SAME FAULTY PART TWICE. I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS NOT COST EFFECTIVE, OR ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE NOT DIED (FORTUNATELY) FROM THE CLOCKSPRING, FOR JEEP TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THE PART, BUT AT LEAST COVER INDIVIDUALS ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS ESPECIALLY IF THE PART HAS FAILED TWICE. FOR JEEP TO NOT REPLACE THE PART IS POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE AND DANGEROUS TO MY FAMILY AND I. *TR

I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE SINCE MARCH OF 2008. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW FROM A JEEP DEALERSHIP. VEHICLE AT THIS TIME HAS NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN A MOTOR VEHICLE CRASH. I TRAVELING AT APPROX 5 MPH THROUGH A PARKING LOT WHEN I HEARD A WARNING CHIME. I OBSERVED THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON MY DASH BOARD. SHORTLY AFTER THAT THE LIGHT WENT OFF. WHEN I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL THE WARNING CHARM ALERTED ME AGAIN AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ON AGAIN. THIS HAS BEEN CONTINUOUS SINCE AUG 11TH, 2013. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I SEE THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS IN REGARDS TO THE CLOCK SPRING MALFUNCTIONING. CHRYSLER HAS DETERMINED THAT THIS IS FROM DUSTY CONDITIONS IN US POSTAL SERVICE VEHICLES IN URBAN AREA AND IS ONLY LOOKING AT 2007 MODEL YEARS. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AS A SAFETY DEFECT. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT ONLY AFFECTING 2007 MODEL YEARS. IT IS AFFECTING ALL MODEL YEARS. THIS CLOCKSPRING WHICH IS FAILING HAS BEEN USED AND IS BEING USED FOR 2007-2013. IF YOU CHECK THE PART NUMBERS ARE THE SAME FOR THOSE YEARS AND CHRYSLER HAS EVEN STATED IN AN ARTICLE POSTED IN AUTOBLOGER.COM THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM. SEE BELOW SECTION TAKEN FROM REPORT: {CHRYSLER ALSO RECALLED 5334 RIGHT-HAND DRIVE WRANGLERS SPANNING THE 2008-2012 MODEL YEARS LAST MONTH.

I TALKED TO THE PARTS DEPARTMENT AT ALLEN SAMUELS TODAY (2/16/13) AND THEY SAID THAT THE SAME PART NUMBER IS USED FOR BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE DRIVE MODELS, CURRENTLY (PART #5156106AC) - MY GUESS IS IT WAS THE EXACT SAME PART USED IN BOTH TYPES OF VEHICLES. SOUNDS TO ME LIKE CHRYSLER KNEW THEY SCREWED UP AND ONLY ISSUED A RECALL ON GOVERNMENT ISSUED VEHICLES SO THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE MUCH MORE PREVALENT LEFT SIDE DIVE MODELS AND UNCLE SAM WOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF. WHEN SPEAKING WITH JEEP CUSTOMER CARE I TOLD THE SUPPORT REPRESENTATIVE THAT I HAD DONE SOME RESEARCH AND HAD FOUND A RECALL - SHE TOLD ME "WELL, YOU CAN'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU READ ON THE INTERNET."... LAST TIME I EVER BUY A CHRYSLER MADE VEHICLE AGAIN... *TR

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT AND CHIME COME ON RANDOMLY MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE ISSUE IS DUE TO A MALFUNCTIONING OR DEFECTIVE CLOCKSPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY CUTTER JEEP ON OAHU, PEARL CITY. THERE HAS ALREADY BEEN A RECALL OR WARRANTY EXTENSION ON THE SAME MODEL JEEPS BUT ONLY FOR 2007. THIS SAME ISSUE IS OCCURRING IN THE 2008 MODELS, AND SO THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED TO THIS MODEL YEAR AS WELL. IT WAS JAN. 29, 2013 WHEN THIS WARNING LIGHT ON ISSUE HAPPENED. WHY WON'T CHRYSLER HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS, NO AIRBAG OR THE HORN CAN GO OUT! WE NEED THE EXTENSION OF RECALL, THIS SEEMS TO BE TOO COMMON OF AN ISSUE AS I RESEARCH! *TR

MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WENT THROUGH TWO DIFFERENT CLOCKSPRINGS. THEN IN MY 2008 WRANGLER THE SAME THING HAPPENED AT APPROXIMATELY 35,000 MILES. I THEN GOT A RECALL NOTICE ON THE CLOCKSPRINGS IN THE 2007, BUT NOT THE 2008. CHRYSLER DID REIMBURSE ME FOR THE 2007 CLOCKSPRINGS PER THE RECALL, BUT HESITATED ON THE 2008 AND AGREED TO REIMBURSE ONLY PARTIAL THE AMOUNT, EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE EXACT SAME CLOCKSPRING. AT APPROXIMATELY 57,000 MILES THE REPLACEMENT CLOCKSPRING WENT OUT IN THE 2008 WRANGLER. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THIS IS THE EXACT SAME CLOCKSPRING THAT A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THE 2007. I AM PURSUING ANOTHER REIMBURSEMENT BUT BELIEVE THAT SINCE THE SAME CLOCKSPRINGS THAT WERE RECALLED IN THE 2007 ARE IN THE 2008 MODELS, THAT THEY TOO SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH 48,XXX MILES. MY AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS FLASHING AND DINGING WHILE DRIVING. THE JEEP IS NO LONGER COVERED BY WARRANTY, BUT AFTER RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THE CAUSE TO BE A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING. THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL DOCUMENTED CASES ON JK-FORUM.COM OF FAILED CLOCK SPRINGS. THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PASSING THE SIGNAL TO THE AIRBAG FOR DEPLOYMENT IN THE CASE OF A ACCIDENT. THE JEEP HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY KIND OF ACCIDENT, FIRE OR ANY OTHER SORT OF DAMAGE. THE PROBLEM STARTED RANDOMLY ON 6-22-2011. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON WITH A CHIME, THEN TURNED OFF A FEW MINUTES LATER. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN DOING THE SAME THING EVER SINCE.

THEY WANTED TO CHARGE US $450 TO INSTALL A NEW ONE, BUT SINCE WE CAN'T AFFORD THAT RIGHT NOW, WE HAVEN'T FIXED IT YET. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET OF BLOGS OF OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, WE DISCOVERED THAT OUR AIRBAGS ARE NON-OPERATIONAL WHILE THE WARNING LIGHT IS ON.
