2008 JEEP WRANGLER Air Bags Problems

I turned the key to turn on my car and the airbag deployed.

Have tried twice by phone to request the closest Jeep dealership recommended on the numerous recall cards mailed to have recalls fixed at Williams Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, 1100 E Main st., Stigler, OK. 74462. Each contact with dealership to get appointment to fix recalls fixed the individual asks “what is the VIN number?” give requested info then ask “Did you purchase at our location?” No we did not was purchased in Texas when husband was on R&R from being deployed in Middle East. The person then states”Give good contact number and when the parts arrive will call to make appt to fix recalls.” This has been over six month period with no calls or resolution. I am [XXX] and need to have reliable and above all safe transportation for my spouse who retired 24 yrs active army to drive me. I have tried to be patient and polite that maybe he forgot or misplaced info but appears that since we did not purchase there they feel no need to fix our by law recalls. So any help from your end would be greatly appreciated. Don’t like making out any kind of complaint but need these recalls fixed or vehicle in question will remain parked due to the fact our recalls may or may not injure us and we are not willing to chance dying in a vehicle the manufacturer is responsible for those recalls. Thank you for your time and hope by this investigation this dealership will not refuse any requested recall fixes because of where it was purchased. Finally, due to this report will feel more comfortable going to another Jeep dealership due to repercussions of my filling this complaint. Thank you!

The RHD Jeep Wranglers had a recall on all the clock springs. I had mine fixed, it lasted a year and then broke again. Every mail carrier I know has the same issue. I believe the recall needs to become a lifetime recall, not a singular recall. They are all failing again causing postal employees to be at risk for fatality with the airbag failing to deploy.

The contact owns a 2008 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V290000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The local dealer was contacted.

Car was purchased 1 hour prior to incident from a dealership. Car was in idle and was shifted to drive and automatically accelerated rapidly without foot on gas pedal and breaks did not work when breaks were forcefully applied during the incident. The car crashed into a house deck and went off the cement pad and crashed into trees in the yard. Unable to remove key from ignition, had to be placed in neutral to remove key. We had the car for less than an hour after purchase. Damage was sustained to the deck and significant damage to car, air bags did not deploy. Claim was immediately filed with insurance.

I'VE CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP ABOUT THESE OPEN RECALLS FOR OVER A YEAR NUMEROUS TIMES THEY TELL ME THEY WILL CALL WHEN PARTS ARE IN. NO CALLS ET. THIS IS MY ONLY CAR TO DRIVE THEY NO THAT. CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!

I HAVE BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER AND TO "ALL STAR DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM" BUT THERE IS STILL NO DATE AND WAS TOLD THERE IS A LARGE BACK ORDER LIST AND NO KNOWN DATE AS TO WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. THE RECALL NOTICE SAID "IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO TAKE STEPS NOW TO REPAIR YOUR VEHICLE TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF YOU AND YOUR PASSENGERS." I HAVE TAKEN THESE STEPS. CHRYSLER HAS PUT IN AN PART ORDER AND CANNOT GIVE ME A DATE AS TO WHEN THIS CAN BE FIXED. THE SIZE OF THIS BACKLOG INDICATES THERE ARE MANY INSTALLATIONS NEEDED.

I HAVE A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING. THERE IS A RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH THIS: S33. NHTSA CAMPAIGN #: 16V290000. THE FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS EFFECTING THE AIRBAGS, STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS. FOR SOME REASON MY VEHICLE IS NOT BEING COVERED BY THE RECALL.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED COMING ON AND OFF AND SOUNDING A CHIME AS THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED ABOUT A YEAR AGO. NOW IT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE CLOCKSPRING BUT IT DOESN'T APPLY TO MY VEHICLE WHICH I DON'T UNDERSTAND AS IT OBVIOUSLY HAS THE PROBLEM. I UNDERSTAND MY AIRBAG WON'T WORK IN THIS CONDITION AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

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.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER THE CLOCKSRPING MALFUNCTIONED AND BROKE WHILE GOING AROUND A TURN ON MY NEIGHBORHOOD STREET. MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND A SMALL RIBBON CAME OUT OF THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS ALSO DISABLED MY HORN. WHEN I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC HE ASKED ABOUT A RECALL ON THIS PART BECAUSE THIS IS NOT A COMMON ISSUE. I LOOKED AND SAW THAT THERE IN FACT WAS A RECALL ON THE RIGHT HANDED VEHICLES FOR 2008 BUT NOT LEFT HANDED DRIVE VEHICLES AS WELL AS 2007 JEEPS HAD THE RECALL. I AM HOPEFUL THAT THIS CAN ALSO BE RECALLED IN 2008 LEFT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES AS IT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT SHOULD GO BAD UNLESS YOUR VEHICLE IS LEFT IN THE RAIN DUST OR DIRTY ENVIRONMENTS, WHICH IS NOT HOW MY JEEP IS EVER STORED. I AM HAPPY THAT I WAS ON A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND THAT THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY!

THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AS MY AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. CHRYSLER IS RESPONSIBLE AND SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS ISSUE IN MY MODEL YR AND LHD.

RECENTLY THE AIR BAG LIGHT IN MY JK JEEP WRANGLER (2008) BEGAN ILLUMINATING. I DID SOME INVESTIGATION PRIOR TO SERVICING IT AT THE DEALER AND DETERMINED IT WAS LIKELY THE CLOCKWORK SPRING SINCE THERE WERE SOME MANY REPORTS OF FAILURE. IN ADDITION, MY ELECTRONIC SWAY BAR DISCONNECT SYSTEM WOULD NOT RE-ENGAGE AFTER A CAMPING TRIP. I DROVE DOWN A MOUNTAIN PASS AND ON A STRETCH OF 75 MPH INTERSTATE WITHOUT A SWAY AND AN AIR BAG WHICH WAS DANGEROUS. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET BOTH ISSUES LOOKED AT. JEEP CONFIRMED IT WAS THE CLOCKWORK SPRING CAUSING THE AIR BAG LIGHT ($48.00 DIAGNOSIS) AND THAT THE SWAY BAR DISCONNECT MOTOR ($96.00 DIAGNOSIS) HAD FAILED. THEY QUOTED ME FOR $410 TO GET THE CLOCKWORK SPRING FIXED & $1410 TO REPLACE THE SWAY BAR. NO PROMISE WAS MADE TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR COST SHOULD THE ISSUES BECOME RECALLS SINCE THEY ARE UNDER INVESTIGATION. I TOOK INITIATIVE TO SELF DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE SWAY BAR NOT RECONNECTING SINCE I SUSPECTED THAT THE ELECTRONIC MOTOR WAS STILL FUNCTIONING (I COULD HEAR AND FEEL TO MOTOR OPERATING BEFORE & AFTER I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE). AFTER DISASSEMBLING (NEVER BEEN TAMPERED WITH PRIOR), I FOUND WATER AND RUSTY PARTS INSIDE AND COULD SEE THAT THE UNIT AS POORLY DESIGNED JUDGING FROM THE ONE SMALL SPRING THAT IS SUPPOSE TO WORK TO RE-ENGAGE THE SWAY BAR BY PUSHING THE INTERNAL GEARS (NOW RUSTY) BACK TOGETHER. I SIMPLY APPLIED SOME GREASE TO THE PARTS AND REINSTALLED THE UNIT. TO MY DELIGHT THIS ALLOWED THE MOTOR TO RECONNECT THE SWAY BAR. IT IS UNCONSCIONABLE TO PUT MOTORIST IN HARMS WAY WITHOUT A FUNCTIONING AIR BAG SYSTEM AND / OR SWAY BAR DUE TO POORLY VEHICLE CONSTRUCTION AND THEN CHARGE FOR DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR COSTS. PLEASE ISSUE RECALLS FOR THE CLOCKWORK SPRING AND THE LACK OF WATER PROTECTION FOR THE ELECTRONIC SWAY BAR DISCONNECT SYSTEM BEFORE FATALITIES OCCUR.

THIS IS A COMMONLY KNOWN PROBLEM WITH ALL JEEP JK'S, YET CHRYSLER IS SIMPLY IGNORING THIS ISSUE AFTER RECALLING 2007 AND 2008 RHD'S!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. I RECEIVED NO HELP FROM CHRYSLER OTHER THAN "WE WILL NOTIFY YOU IF A RECALL IS MADE". THEY COULD PROVIDE ME WITH ZERO INFORMATION ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE HAD THIS EXACT ISSUE. HERE'S THEIR MAILING ADDRESS IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO LET THEM KNOW YOU DISAGREE WITH THIS BLATANT LACK OF RESPONSIBILITY ON THEIR PART. IS THERE NOTHING MORE WE CAN DO UNTIL WE CAN CHECK THE FATALITY SQUARE?? THIS IS ABSURD. I'LL BE SENDING THEM A LETTER DAILY REMINDING THEM IN CASE THEY FORGET.

SEPTEMBER OF 2014 LAST YEAR I NOTICED THE AIRBAG MALFUNCTION LIGHT COME ON. I CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP CHRYSLER DEALER AND LEFT A FEW MESSAGES ABOUT RECALLS AND IF THIS MEANT A PROBLEM WITH MY AIRBAGS. NO ONE EVER CALLED ME BACK AFTER 2 WEEKS OF WAITING THE AIRBAG MALFUNCTION LIGHT WENT OFF AND IT WOULD STAY OFF FOR WEEKS AND MYSTERIOUSLY COME ON PERIODICALLY. SO AFTER A FEW MONTHS GO BY IN DECEMBER OF 2014 I WAS AT A SUPERMARKET PARKING LOT WITH MY WIFE AND THREE CHILDREN WHEN WE PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE AMD THW HORN, LIGHTS, WIPERS AND DASH LIT UP. I QUICKLY DISCONNECTED THE NEG BATTERY AND RECONNECTED IT TWO OR THREE TIMES AND IT STOPPPED. I LOOKED ONLINE FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND DISCONMECTED THE HORN AMP VIA FUSEBOX. JUMPSTART TO FEB 2015 WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY THE HORN BLARES AND WIPERS GO OFF BUT THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF AND I GLIDED TO THE BREAKDOWN LANE WHILE OTHER CARS AVOIDED ME. 5/27/2015 MY WIFE OPENED THE JEEP DOOR AND IT TRIGGERED THE WIPERS, DASH LIGHTS AND WIPER FLUID TO SPRAY. WHEN YOU'RE ON A FIXED INCOME BRINGING YOUR VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIRS IS NOT ALWAYS FEASABLE. I TOOK THE JEEP TO AUTOZONE FREE DIAGNOSTIC AND GOT A CODE U0141.

STARTED MY JEEP EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. MY AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON AS NORMAL, BUT DID NOT SHUT OFF LIKE USUAL. I WAS A BIT WORRIED TO DRIVE IT AS I ASSUME THE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. HOWEVER I CHOSE TO DRIVE ANYHOW. THE INDICATOR LIGHT WILL GO OFF BUT QUICKLY COMES BACK ON AT AROUND 20-30MPH. FOLLOWED BY A DING EACH TIME IT RETURNS BACK ON. AS IT TURNS OUT, MY MECHANIC SCANNED MY JEEP, BRINGING UP THE CODE OF A FAULTY AIRBAG, CLOCK SPRING. AS A SAFETY ISSUE, I WAS CONCERNED AND CALLED CHRYSLER CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPT TO SEE IF A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED. UNFORTUNATELY, NOTHING FOR MY VIN# IS COMING UP. SO THAT MEANS I AM ON MY OWN IN REPAIRING THIS SAFETY ISSUE. MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. SO THAT MEANS I AM TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. DEALERSHIP PARTS DEPARTMENT HAS THEM IN STOCK, BUT THEY COST $270 ONLY IN PARTS. NOT INCLUDING LABOR TO INSTALL THE CLOCK SPRING. PLEASE BE AWARE THIS IS A VERY KNOWN ISSUE IN MOST NEWER JEEP JK'S. I FOLLOW MANY FORUMS FOR MY JEEP. ALMOST EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM TALK ABOUT THIS KNOWN ISSUE. YET CHRYSLER IS NOT STEPPING UP AND HANDLING THIS IN A SAFE MANNER. I AM THOROUGHLY DISAPPOINTED IN THEM AND UPSET NOW I HAVE NO ACTIVE AIRBAG. TILL I SAVE ENOUGH CASH TO HAVE THIS CLOCK SPRING INSTALLED. :-( PLEASE PRAY NOTHING HAPPENS TO ME AND MY FAMILY.

WHILE DRIVING, THE AIRBAG LIGHT STARTED FLASHING AND AN AUDIBLE CHIME WENT OFF EACH TIME THE LIGHT FLASHED. THE LIGHT AND CHIME WOULD APPEAR ABOUT EVERY 5 MINUTES. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE AND FOUND OUT THAT THE PROBLEM WAS THE AIRBAG CLOCK SPRING. I ALSO FOUND OUT THAT THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON RHD VEHICLES OF THIS SAME MODEL FOR THE AIRBAG CLOCK SPRING. AFTER RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM, I FOUND OUT THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS PROBLEM FOR LHD VEHICLES WITH NO RECALL. ARE THEY ONLY RECALLING THE RHD VEHICLES BECAUSE MAJORITY OF THEM ARE DRIVEN BY GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES, AND THEY EXPECT EVERYONE ELSE TO PAY $600 TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM FIXED? *TR

UPON TURNING ON MY JEEP THE AIRBAG LIGHT DID NOT GO OUT AFTER THE START-UP LIGHT CHECK. WHEN RESTARTING THE VEHICLE IT WENT OUT. WHILE DRIVING IT CAME BACK ON AND CHIMED, IT HAS CONTINUED TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. THE ESP ALSO BEGAN INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATING WHILE DRIVING ON A SMOOTH STRAIGHT HIGHWAY. THIS INTERMITTENT ISSUE HAS PERSISTED FOR OVER A YEAR. IN DOING RESEARCH BOTH ISSUES CAN POTENTIALLY BE RELATED BACK TO THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING. A RECALL EXISTS FOR RHD JEEP WRANGLERS OF MY SAME YEAR THAT USE THE SAME PART. WHEN CONTACTING A JEEP DEALER ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE THEY SAID THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING TO RESOLVE IT UNLESS I PAID FOR ALL PARTS AND LABOR. IN CHECKING ONLINE FORUMS THIS IS APPARENTLY NOT AS RARE AS THE INITIAL RECALL STATES. THERE ARE EVEN ONLINE TUTORIALS ON HOW TO CHANGE IT YOURSELF SINCE THE MANUFACTURER DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THIS AS A PROBLEM ON LHD JEEPS. (HTTP://WWW.JK-FORUM.COM/FORUMS/JK-WRITE-UPS-39/CLOCKSPRING-REPLACEMENT-273201/) WHILE THIS HASN'T CAUSED A SAFETY PROBLEM YET, MY CONCERN IS IF I AM INVOLVED IN A COLLISION THAT I WILL NOT HAVE THE PROTECTION I AM SUPPOSED TO FROM A FAULTY MANUFACTURER PART. *TR

AFTER SOME ONLINE RESEARCH I CAME ACROSS FORUMS FOR THE CLOCK SPRING FAILURE, HOWEVER, MY HORN AND TURN SIGNALS WORK PROPERLY AND THE AIRBAG FUSES ARE STILL FUNCTIONAL. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC FOR A COMPUTER DIAGNOSTIC, HOWEVER, NO CODES WERE GIVEN AND HE SAID "WELL, WE SHOULD START WITH THE CLOCK SPRING AND SEE IF THAT FIXES THE PROBLEM." I CALLED CHRYSLER/JEEP IN HOPES OF ATTAINING SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. TO MY DISMAY, THE WOMAN ON THE OTHER LINE INFORMED MY THAT I WAS OVER MY WARRANTY MILEAGE AND "NOTHING CAN REALLY BE DONE." I TRULY DON'T MIND THE LIGHT OR EVEN THE SPORADIC (EVERY 2 OR 3 MINUTE) DING THE LIGHT MAKES. WHAT I DO MIND IS THE FACT THAT MY VEHICLE, WITH DOORS AND A ROOF MAINLY TO PROTECT AGAINST THE ELEMENTS, HAS NON-FUNCTIONING AIRBAGS THAT CHRYSLER DOESN'T SEEM TO DESIRE TO REMEDY.

I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC TO HAVE THE HORN FIXED, AND WAS INFORMED IT WAS A BAD CLOCK-SPRING. CHRYSLER HAS EXTENDED THE WARRANTY FOR THE RH 2008 WRANGLERS AND ALL 2007 WRANGLERS, BUT THE WARRANTY FOR THE LH 2008 WRANGLERS, LIKE MINE, HAS NOT BEEN EXTENDED TO BE REPLACED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AS THE HORN DOES NOT WORK, AND I AM UNSURE IF MY AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY, IF NEEDED. THERE IS CLEARLY AN ISSUE AS THERE ARE A FLOOD OF COMPLAINTS. IT IS TIME FOR THE NHTSA TO STEP IN AND GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF. I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY $500.00 TO HAVE THE CLOCK-SPRING FIXED WHEN IT IS AN OBVIOUS ISSUE ACROSS THE LINE IN THE 2007 AND 2008 MODELS. I SHOULD ALSO MENTION THAT I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WHICH IS WHAT WAS THE INITIAL ISSUE WHICH HAD ME TAKE THE JEEP INTO THE SHOP. OVER THIS PAST YEAR, THE JEEP WOULD JUST START SHAKING VIOLENTLY AT ABOUT 55 MPH EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE. THIS LAST TIME, I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURNED OFF THE JEEP AND TRIED AGAIN, ONLY TO HAVE IT START SHAKING VIOLENTLY AGAIN. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE THAT NEEDS ADDRESSED. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED AS THERE WERE VEHICLES ON THE FREEWAY ALL AROUND ME. I COULD BARELY CONTROL THE VEHICLE TO PULL IT OFF THE ROAD. THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE STEERING STABILIZER, THE CALIPERS, AND THE ROTORS TO ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEM. INTERESTINGLY, WHEN I WALKED IN TO TALK TO THEM, THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS AS THEY HAVE HAD SIMILAR COMPLAINTS THAT NEEDED REPAIRS FOR THE SAME VEHICLE AND PROBLEM FROM OTHER CUSTOMERS. THIS WAS A $350.00 REPAIR. I POINT THIS SECOND ISSUE OUT SO OTHER JEEP OWNERS WILL KNOW WHAT TO HAVE REPAIRED IF CHRYSLER DOES NOTHING. *TR

CHRYSLER HAS GIVEN ASSISTANCE TO SOME CUSTOMERS IN REPLACING THE PART THAT WERE NOT UNDER THE RECALL, BUT REFUSED TO ASSIST ME. IT IS A WELL KNOWN DEFECT AND I BELIEVE CHRYSLER SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL THE PART ON ALL JEEP WRANGLERS, ESPECIALLY ADMITTEDLY KNOWING THE PROBLEM AND ASSISTING SOME PEOPLE WITH PART REPLACEMENT BUT NOT OTHERS. *TT

IN NHTSA ACTION NUMBER :PE11019 DATE :APRIL 15, 2014 AT 01:39 PM CHRYSLER INFORMED ODI THAT IT INTENDS TO INITIATE A CONSUMER SATISFACTION CAMPAIGN FOR MY2007 LHD WRANGLER WHICH WILL EXTEND THE CS WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES. ACCORDINGLY THE INVESTIGATION WAS CLOSED. THE AIR BAG WARNING IN MY JEEP KEEP WAS COMING ON AND OFF; I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER, WHO DETERMINED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING WAS DEFECTIVE AND THAT IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE REPAIR COST OVER $750; THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT DESPITE CHRYSLER REPRESENTING TO THE NHTSA THAT IT WOULD EXTEND THE CS WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR 10 YEARS AND 150,000 MILES (AND SECURING CLOSURE OF THE INVESTIGATION), CHRYSLER WAS NOT PROVIDING THE WARRANTY COVERAGE IT PROMISED. PLEASE INVESTIGATE/INQUIRE WHY CHRYSLER IS NOT DOING SO! THANK YOU. *TT

ON THE 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FLASHES STAYS ON STEADY 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.

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON IN MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. I CONTACTED JEEP AND FOUND THE PROBLEM IS NOT COVERED BY MY BASIC WARRANTY ANY LONGER. SO I WENT ON LINE TO SEE IF I COULD FIX IT MYSELF. I DISCOVERED THAT THE MOST LIKELY CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM IS A DEFECTIVE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN. BY READING JEEP FORUMS I DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 2008 JEEP AND IN FACT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS REQUIRED OF JEEP IN THE RIGHT HAND DRIVE VERSIONS OF THE VEHICLE. THE APPARENT JUSTIFICATION TO EXCLUDE THE LEFT HAD DRIVE VEHICLES IS THAT MAIL CARRIERS USING THE RIGHT HAND VERSION USE THE JEEP WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN ALLOWING DIRT TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. I REMIND YOU THAT THE JEEP IS MARKED TO FOLKS WHO WILL MOST LIKELY DRIVE THE THING OFF ROAD MEANING GRAVEL OR DIRT ROADS. WHERE I LIVE IN A DESERT REGION OF WYOMING THE DIRT ROADS ARE USUALLY COVERED IN FLOUR LIKE DUST SO DIRT GETS EVERYWHERE. I SUSPECT THE REAL REASON FOR ALLOWING CHRYSLER OFF THE HOOK IS THE COST INVOLVED TO WARRANTY THE REST OF THE VEHICLES. IF THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM IS A DESIGN DEFECT THEN ALL OF THOSE VEHICLES WHO ACTUALLY HAVE THE PROBLEM NEED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. IF LEFT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES DON?T HAVE THE PROBLEM THEN PEOPLE WON?T BE ASKING FOR REPAIR. IT COST AROUND $500 FOR THIS REPAIR WHICH MANY PEOPLE MAY NEGLECT CAUSING THEIR DEATH. WHY ARE MAIL CARRIER LIVES MORE VALUABLE THAN THE REST OF US? PLEASE RECONSIDER THE DECISION TO DISREGARD THE HEALTH AND WELFARE OF THE MAJORITY OF JEEP OWNERS WHO HAVE LEFT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES AT LEAST IN THIS COUNTRY. I SUSPECT THE DEFECTIVE PART IS DEFECTIVE NO MATTER WHAT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE IT IS INSTALLED ON. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND WHEN I EXITED FROM THE HIGHWAY, MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. IT PROCEEDED TO COME ON AND GO OFF OVER THE NEXT 15 MIN ON THE REST OF MY DRIVE HOME. THIS SEEMS TO BE A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING, WHICH LEADS TO A FAULTY AIRBAG. THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED 10 YEAR/150,000 MILE WARRANTY THAT COVERS THE 2007 LHD AND 2008 RHD JEEP WRANGLERS. WHETHER THE STEERING IS ON THE RIGHT OR LEFT SIDE OF A VEHICLE SHOULD NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHEN IT COMES TO DRIVER SAFETY. *TR

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON SO I PULLED OVER. I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS JUST A ONE TIME THING BUT I TRAVELED OVER 1000 MILES WITH IT DINGING EVERY LITTLE WHILE. WHEN I GOT TO MY DESTINATION THE LIGHT WAS STILL COMING ON AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS A SPRING AND WOULD COST 400.00 TO 500.00 TO FIX. I FEEL THAT IT IS NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX SINCE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. BUT NOT ONLY THAT I ALSO HAD TO GET THE BALL JOINTS REPLACED, BOTH UPPER AND LOWER WHICH COST OVER 1000.00. I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC THAT JEEP DOES NOT PUT GREASE FITTINGS ON THEM SO THAT THEY EVENTUALLY GO OUT. THIS COULD CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT AND THESE ISSUES NEED TO BE RESOLVED BY THE COMPANY BEFORE SOMEONE GET HURT OR WORSE KILLED. I LOVE MY JEEP BUT ALL THESE ISSUES ARE REALLY DISTURBING. ONE OTHER ISSUE I NOTICED IS I AM ALWAYS HAVING TO CHECK THE OIL WHICH IS USUALLY LOW. NOT SURE WHAT THAT IS BUT I KNOW OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS. *TR

THE FIRST TIME I BROUGHT IT TO A DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE CLOCKSPRING AT A COST OF OVER $400.00. THIS PART IS ESSENTIAL TO THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND MY PASSENGERS AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. MEANWHILE, THE RHD AND 2007 WRANGLERS HAVE HAD A RECALL ISSUED FOR THIS ISSUE. WELL, I LIVE IN A DUSTY PART OF THE COUNTRY AND IN THE SUMMER DRIVE WITH THE WINDOW DOWN A LOT, JUST AS THE MAIL CARRIERS WITH THE RHD JEEPS DO. I ACTUALLY PURCHASED MY JEEP IN NOVEMBER OF 2007. IT IS A 2008 MY BUT WAS MADE IN 2007, IMMEDIATELY AFTER THOSE 2007 LHD JEEPS THAT RECEIVED THE RECALL. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS RECALL WAS NOT EXPANDED TO COVER ALL WRANGLERS THAT IT AFFECTS. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THE AIR BAGS WILL NOT OPERATE PROPERLY WHEN THIS ISSUE IS PRESENT. THEY COULD NOT DEPLOY WHEN NECESSARY AND/OR DEPLOY WHEN NOT NECESSARY. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR ME TO HAVE THIS CONDITION IN MY VEHICLE PUTTING ANY PASSENGERS AT RISK. I WILL BE HAVING IT REPLACED EITHER WAY, AGAIN. *TR

MY WIFE WAS LEAVING WORK, AS SHE STARTED TO DRIVE AWAY IN OUR JEEP WRANGLER THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND CHIMED. IT HAS CONTINUED TO DO SO, INTERMITTENTLY, EVER SINCE THEN. I WAS WORKING OUT OF TOWN AT THE TIME WHEN I RECEIVED A CALL FROM HER. SHE WAS CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAG MAY DEPLOY UNEXPECTEDLY OR WORSE, NOT WORK IF SHE WERE TO GET INTO A WRECK. I WAS ABLE TO DO A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH AND FIND MANY JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE, A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING. FROM WHAT I'VE SEEN, THE 2007 JEEP WRANGLERS HAVE AN EXTENDED FACTORY WARRANTY TO COVER THIS ISSUE. UNFORTUNATELY, FOR MY WIFE AND MYSELF, WE ARE NOT FINANCIALLY ABLE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR WHAT I'M TOLD IS ABOUT A $500 REPAIR FOR OUR 2008 WRANGLER. I AM MORE THEN WILLING TO REPAIR OR PAY FOR REPAIRS OF ITEMS THAT WEAR OUT OR NEED TO BE REPLACED WHILE OWNING AND MAINTAINING A VEHICLE. HOWEVER, REPLACING A CLOCK SPRING TO HELP MAINTAIN THE FUNCTIONALITY OF MY VEHICLES AIRBAG SYSTEM IS NOT SOMETHING THAT IS COMMONLY EVER REPLACED. THE AMOUNT OF JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS THAT HAVE COME TO THE INTERNET TO VOICE THEIR CONCERN ON THE MATTER MAKES IT APPARENT TO ME THAT THIS IS EITHER A SUB-PAR PART OR DESIGN FLAW AND CHRYSLER/JEEP SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR IT.

WHILE DRIVING AT 25 MPH THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED WITH A CORRESPONDING CHIME. THE LIGHT COMES ON AN OFF AND THE CHIME SOUNDS RANDOMLY. THROUGH RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON AND IS A RECURRING PROBLEM WITH JEEP WRANGLERS AND SPECIFICALLY TO THE CLOCKSPRING BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. APPARENTLY MY AIRBAG MAY OR MAY NOT WORK IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. *TR

THE WARRANTY HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO 150,000 MILES ON THE 2007 WRANGLERS, BUT NOT ON THE 2008 WRANGLERS. THEY ARE THE SAME PART NUMBER, WHY WAS CHRYSLER NOT FORCED TO EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON 2008'S? THE COCKSPRING FAILURE CAUSES THE AIRBAG TO NOT DEPLOY. *TR

THE AIR BAG CLOCKSPRING IN MY 2008 RHD JEEP WRANGLER HAS FAILED AND BEEN REPLACED TWICE AT MY EXPENSE. THE FIRST WAS 09/13/10 @ 39693 MILES AND AGAIN 12/15/11 @ 69120 MILES. I FOUND ON YOUR SITE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL IN PROGRESS, L37 FOR 2008 - 2012 RHD JEEP WRANGLERS. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND WAS TOLD MY VIN WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THIS RECALL. MY CONCERN IS: HOW MANY OTHER RHD JEEP WRANGLERS ARE THERE OUT THERE THAT HAVE OR MAY EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM BUT ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL? IT APPEARS OBVIOUS THAT THE RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED. I HAVE RECEIPTS FOR THESE REPAIRS IF NEEDED AND FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME FOR MORE INFO. *TR

I OWN A JEEP TOUR COMPANY AND THIS IS THE THIRD CLOCKSPRING I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE IN TWO DIFFERENT JEEPS. WHILE TRAVELING AT 5MPH OR UNDER THE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. AFTER HAVING THE DEALER CHECK IT OUT I WAS ADVISED IT WAS A CLOCKSPRING ISSUE. I REPLACED THIS ONE ON MY OWN. THEY CHARGE $1450 JUST TO CHECK WHAT PART, THEN $280 FOR THE PART. THIS HAS BEEN DONE AT TTO SEPERATE LOCAL DEALER SHIPS. I HAVE SAVED TWO CLOCKSPRINGS, ONE DONE FROM A 2007 JEEP AND ONE FROM THIS 2008.

THE "AIRBAG-WARNING-LIGHT" IN THE DASHBOARD OF MY JEEP WRANGLER X COMES ON AND STAYS ON, INCLUDING MAKING THE "PEEPING WARNING SOUND" EVER SO OFTEN. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED IT AS THE "CLOCK-SPRING" IN THE STEERING WHEEL (AN APPROX. $400+ REPAIR). THIS IS NOT ONLY AN EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE REPAIR, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND CONCERN, ESPECIALLY FOR A JUST OVER 3 YEAR YOUNG CAR, JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. THE AIRBAG(S) WILL NOT DEPLOY IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT AS LONG AS THE "AIRBAG-WARNING-LIGHT" IN THE DASHBOARD IS ON. I HAVE READ THAT A LOT OF JEEP OWNERS, AS WELL AS OTHERS, ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE A RECALL, SINCE THE CLOCK-SPRING SHOULD NOT BE DEFECTIVE AFTER JUST 3 YEARS. THIS SEEMS LIKE A FAULTY PART, WHICH SHOULD BE REPLACED AT MANUFACTURES EXPENSE.

HORN STOPPED WORKING AND AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATING INTERMITTENTLY. I KNEW I WOULD NOT PASS INSPECTION SO I BROUGHT IT TO AUTO REPAIR SHOP.

THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE DRIVER SIDE STAYS ON, AND WILL NOT GO OFF.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON OCCASIONALLY MAKING A WARNING BELL. I HAVE NO IDEA IF THE AIRBAG IS FUNCTIONAL. HAD IT TO THE DEALER ONCE BUT SINCE I WORK IN THIS VEHICLE I COULD NOT LEAVE IT SO THEY COULD NOT DETERMINE IF IT IS THE CLOCKSPRING OR AN AIRBAG MODULE. THE FUEL INLET ALSO SPEWS GAS WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THE FUEL ISSUE, BUT I HAVE HAD PARTS ON ORDER FOR EIGHT MONTHS AND THEY ARE STILL ON BACKORDER.
