MANUFACTURER JEEP AND MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP ARE AWARE OF THE SAFETY RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN TRYING GET THE ISSUE TAKEN CARE OF FOR OVER 6 MONTHS NOW, AND JEEP AND THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP (ANCHORAGE CHRYSLER CENTER) REFUSE TO FIX THE SAFETY ISSUE. I BROUGHT IN MY JEEP TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR A SCHEDULED RECALL FIX. THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIX IT AT THAT TIME BECAUSE THEY NEEDED TO ORDER A PART THEY WEREN'T AWARE THE RECALL REQUIRED. THEY INFORMED ME THE PART WOULD ARRIVE IN ABOUT 4 DAYS AND THEY CONTACT ME. THAT WAS OVER TWO MONTHS AGO. THEY HAVEN'T CONTACTED ME AND ON THE RARE INSTANCES I GET A HOLD OF THEM THEY JUST SAY THEY NEED TO ORDER THE PART EVERY TIME. SO THEY HAVE NEVER ORDERED THE PART AND CLEARLY HAVE NO INTENTION OF DOING SO. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE FOR OVER A YEAR NOW BECAUSE OF JEEP AND IT'S DEALERSHIPS UNWILLINGNESS TO FULFILL THEIR LEGAL OBLIGATIONS.

I HAVE REACHED OUT TO GERRY WOOD CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE SEVERAL TIMES REGARDING THE RECALL POST CARD I RECEIVE EVERY COUPLE MONTHS REGARDING A RECALL ON S 33 AIRBAG CLOCK SPRING. I ALSO CALLED DODGE HEADQUARTERS WITH NO RESULTS BECAUSE THE TRANSFERRED MY CALL BACK TO JERRY WOULD CHRYSLERJEEP DODGE. THE JEEP AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON INTERMITTENTLY. THEY TELL ME THE PART IS NOT IN THEY WILL CALL ME WHEN IT IS DELIVERED. I NEVER HEAR BACK FROM ANYONE. IT HAS BEEN A YEAR GOING BACK AND FORTH ABOUT THIS. I'M HESITANT TO DRIVE THE JEEP BECAUSE I COULD POSSIBLY BE INJURED OR INJURE OTHERS. I NEED HELP.

HAD AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH THE AIR BAG DASHBOARD LIGHT ACTIVATING. THIS WOULD OCCUR AT SPEEDS OF ZERO UP TO HIGHWAY AND WOULD COME AND GO WITHOUT WARNING. THE OBD-II CODE WAS B1B8F, DRIVER SEAT TRACK POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT OPEN. AFTER REMOVING THE DRIVER SEAT TO ACCESS THE WIRING HARNESS DISCOVERED THAT ONE WIRE WAS BROKEN AT THE SENSOR, PARTIALLY HELD TOGETHER BY A "THREAD" OF THE WIRE INSULATION WITH BARE METAL EXPOSED. THE WIRING HARNESS HAD BEEN INSTALLED UNDER THE SEAT WITH THE WIRE PULLED TIGHT TO THE UNDER SEAT "SPRING" WIRE SUPPORT AND HELD IN PLACE WITH A ZIP TIE. I CONSIDER IT LIKELY THAT THE UP-AND-DOWN MOTION OF THE SEAT OVER A PERIOD OF YEARS CAUSED THE HARNESS WIRE TO BREAK. THE FIRST PICTURE SHOWS THE CONNECTOR TO WHICH THE BROKEN WIRE WAS ATTACHED. UNFORTUNATELY THE BROKE WIRE IS IN THE BACK, THE ONE WITH THE PURPLE STRIPE. THE SECOND PICTURE SHOWS THE BROKEN WIRE AFTER THE WIRE PLUG WAS PULLED OUT OF THE CONNECTOR,

TAKATA RECALL I AM FILING A COMPLAINT BECAUSE IT IS APPALLING THAT SUCH A DANGEROUS SITUATION CREATED BY THE FAILURE OF AIRBAGS AND INVOLVING A RECALL ACTUALLY HAS NO SOLUTION AND HAS NO TIMELINE FOR WHEN A SOLUTION WILL BE AVAILABLE, THIS IS INCREDIBLY SERIOUS AND IMPORTANT, YET THERE IS NO SOLUTION. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING. MY JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED IS PART OF THIS ENORMOUS, INEFFECTIVE RECALL, AND MY FAMILY AND I RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE ON A REGULAR BASIS. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE, AND THE MANUFACTURERS ARE CLEARLY AND TERRIBLY FAILING THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO CONSUMERS.

VEHICLE NOT BEING REPAIRED IN A REASONABLE MANNER: RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE S43 AND S33. I CALLED SUNLAND PARK DODGE, EL PASO, TX FOR SERVICE. WAS INFORMED THAT PARTS NOT AVAILABLE AND TO CALL BACK IN APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS. I CALLED APPROXIMATELY 4 WEEKS LATER TO SAME FACILITY AND WAS TRANSFERRED TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT. A REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME THAT ONE OF THE RECALLED PARTS WAS NOT AVAILABLE. I ASKED IF I COULD ORDER THE PART AND SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. REQUEST WAS DENIED. THE REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDED TO TRY AND HAVE ME CALL THE NATIONAL DODGE PARTS DEPT TO INQUIRE WHEN THE PART WOULD BE IN. I TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD NOT BE WILLING TO SPEND MY PERSONAL TIME (AN EXPENSE) CHASING DOWN A PART THAT HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO ORDER. I THEN ASKED IF HE WOULD MAKE THAT CALL AND GET THAT INFORMATION TO ME. HE REFUSED TO HELP ME AND WAS ATTEMPTING TO END THE CALL. THEN I ASKED TO SPEAK WITH HIS MANGER. AROUND 20 MINUTES LATER SOMEONE WHO WAS NOT HIS MANAGER PROCEEDED TO GIVE FALSE INFORMATION SAYING THAT THEY COULD REPLACE ONE OF THE PARTS AND 'INSPECT' THE OTHER RECALLED PART TO SEE IF IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I INFORMED THE UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN THAT, CONSIDERING THE QUESTIONABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, I WOULD NO LONGER FEEL SAFE TRUSTING THEIR DEALERSHIP TO MAKE REPAIRS TO MY VEHICLE. SERVICE INCOMPLETE AFTER APPROXIMATELY 7 WEEKS. PURSUING SERVICE AT ALTERNATE DEALERSHIP.

ON MY 09 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD, THE AIRBAG LIGHT AND CHIME COME ON AND OFF DURING MY DAILY COMUTE AN INDICATION THAT THERE IS SOMETHING MALFUNCTIONING OR INTERFERING WITH THE VEHICLES AIBAGS. 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. AT FIRST MY HORN STOP WORKING (ALSO CAUSED BY A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING) AND DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT, BUT I HAD TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER A LITTLE DEEPER WHEN MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON.

Mileage: 129,000

THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATES WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNING. THE CLOCK SPRING IS DEFECTIVE. THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PART AND I AM NOT SURE WHY MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT BEING CHOSEN FOR THE RECALL WHEN IT HAS THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS ALL THE VEHICLES THAT ARE RECALLED. I AM NERVOUS TO WAIT FOR IT TO POSSIBLY GET RECALLED IN CASE I AM IN AN ACCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 JEEP WRANGLER. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V176000 (AIR BAGS). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF AND CHIMES WITH EVER TIME IT IS ENGAGED ON THE FREEWAY. I BELIEVE MY AIRBAG SYSTEM IS MALFUNCTIONING WHICH IS A SAFETY CONCERN.

ON THE 2009 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD (MILEAGE 79,600), 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 2009 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 2009 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.

Mileage: 79,600

THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASH COMES ON AND STAYS ON. WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL SHARPLY, THE LIGHT GOES OFF AND THEN COMES BACK ON AGAIN WHEN COMING OUT OF THE TURN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN IN FOR SERVICE AND I WAS TOLD THE CLOCK SPRING WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT SIMILAR JEEPS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS AND THAT THE INVESTIGATION HAS EXPANDED TO INCLUDE MY MODEL AND YEAR AS WELL. ATTACHED IS THE ESTIMATE FROM THE DEALER SHOWING THE NEED FOR REPAIR.

Mileage: 138,000

MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND MY CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED IT WOULD BE $500 TO FIX BECAUSE IT IS NOT A RECALLED ITEM. I HAVE BEEN WAITING PATIENTLY FOR THE RECALL BECAUSE MANY OTHER JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. ONE DAY I SIMPLY WENT TO START THE JEEP AND THE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS HEADED TO WORK AND ALWAYS USE MY CRUISE CONTROL WHEN I AM ON THE HIGHWAY, BUT IT WOULD NOT WORK.

AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINS ON, THEREFORE THE AIR BAG MAY NOT DEPLOY AS INTENDED IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE 'CLOCK SPRING' AS JEEP IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEARS AND NOT OTHERS - JEEP NEEDS TO RECALL AND FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE ON ALL JEEP MODELS, NOT JUST A SELECT FEW.

A FEW WEEKS AGO WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN I HEARD A POP AND THEN MY AIRBAG LAMP (DASH LIGHT) STARTED COMING ON AND DINGS WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED (VERY ANNOYING)...I LOOKED IN THE MANUAL AND IT TOLD ME THIS MEANT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG. I DID SEARCHES ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT A LOT OF VEHICLES ARE BEING RECALLED FOR A KNOW ISSUE / RECALL FOR CLOCK-SPRING ASSEMBLY IN THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG SYSTEM THAT COULD CAUSE IT TO MALFUNCTION AND NOT DEPLOY DURING A CRASH. I FOUND A FEW SITES THAT LISTED MY MAKE / MODEL OF JEEP AS ONE OF THE RECALLS ... BUT WHEN I CALLED THE CHRYSLER / JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE & TOOK IT TO THE CHRYSLER / JEEP DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT DIAGNOSED- I WAS TOLD MY MAKE / MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL SO I HAD TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF MY OWN POCKET ($499.17 TO BE EXACT - SEE ATTACHED INVOICE). TALK ABOUT A SHOCK - I WOULD HAVE NEVER GUESSED THAT IT WOULD BE THIS EXPENSIVE - BUT TO BE PROTECTED AND SAFE IN MY VEHICLE IT HAD TO BE DONE. I AM HOPING TO ALSO VOICE MY CONCERNS & HOPEFULLY PROTECT OTHER PEOPLE AND POSSIBLY PREVENT DEATHS OF INNOCENT PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT AWARE OF THE PROBLEM SO THEY CAN GET THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG CLOCK-SPRING ASSEMBLIES REPLACED. I ALSO REQUESTING THAT THIS INCIDENT BE REPORTED, INVESTIGATED AND HOPE TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THIS EXPENSE I PRAY THAT SOMEONE ELSE DOES NOT HAVE TO SPEND THE TIME, MONEY OR WORRY THAT I'VE HAD TO GO THROUGH IN ORDER TO GET THIS ISSUE FIXED... HOPEFULLY BEFORE IT CAUSES AN INJURY OR DEATH!

FAULTY CLOCKSPRING WIRING FOR AIRBAG. REPLACED FOR $500.00 THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT FOR RHD MODELS THAT HAS PROMPTED A RECALL. AFTER MANY COMPLAINTS, THE 2007 LHD MODEL WARRANTY APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN EXTENDED AS WELL. HOWEVER, I HAD THE SAME ISSUES WITH MY 2009 LHD MODEL (160,000 MILES). THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE ABSORBED BY THE COMPANY AND NOT THE CUSTOMER!

A FEW WEEKS AGO MY AIRBAG LAMP (DASH LIGHT) STARTED COMING ON AND DINGS WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED (VERY ANNOYING) ... I LOOKED IN THE MANUAL AND IT TOLD ME THIS MEANT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG. I DID SEARCHES ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT MY YEAR, MAKE & MODEL JEEP HAD A KNOW ISSUE / RECALL FOR CLOCK SPRING IN THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG SYSTEM THAT COULD CAUSE IT TO MALFUNCTION AND NOT DEPLOY DURING A CRASH. WHEN I CALLED CHRYSLER THEY SAID MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT IN THE LIST OF RECALLS BUT THAT IT DIDN'T MEAN THAT WASN'T THE PROBLEM BECAUSE OF THE LARGE RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. THEY WANT ME TO PAY TO HAVE THE PROBLEM FIXED AT THE DEALERSHIP MYSELF AND THEN FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THEM FOR RE-IMBURSEMENT... WHICH I FIND TO BE RIDICULOUS - IF ITS A KNOW PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE THEN THEY SHOULD HONOR IT AND FIX THE ISSUE WITHOUT ME BEING OUT THE MONEY!

AS WITH HUNDREDS OF OTHER LEFT HAND STEER JEEP OWNERS, OUR AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, HORN DOES NOT WORK, AND CRUISE CONTROL IS INOPERATIVE. NHTSA AND JEEP HAVE DEEMED IT OKAY TO REPAIR THESE PROBLEMS ON THE RIGHT HAND STEER WHICH IS A VERY SMALL PERCENT OF ALL JEEPS. GET ON IT, START THE RECALL, IT IS UNSAFE, AND WHY SHOULD WE HAVE TO PAY THE PRICE WHEN JEEP/DODGE/CHRYSLER KNOW THIS IS AN ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS FIXED AND TALKING TO OTHER 2009 OWNERS SINCE MARCH OF 2010. LET'S GO.

AIR BAG LIGHT BECAME CONTINUOUSLY ILLUMINATED & THE WARNING DING MAKES A SOUND OFF AND ON WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, DETERMINED CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN WAS DEFECTIVE. LOOKED FOR A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT FOUND THERE WAS ONLY ONE FOR RIGHT HAND DRIVE JEEPS. I DID, HOWEVER, FIND AN OPEN INVESTIGATION & MANY COMPLAINTS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE ON LEFT HAND DRIVE JEEPS.

AIRBAG FAILURE ILLUMINATION, TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY INDICATE THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL WAS THE ISSUE AND MAY CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY WITH OUT A CRASH. I CONTACTED JEEP THEY INDICATED THAT THIS WAS A MAINTENANCE ISSUE NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, THEY DID SAY THEY WOULD CHIP IN AND ONLY CHARGE ME $600.00.BUT THAT OFFER WAS ONLY GOOD FOR 30 DAYS AFTER I REPORTED THE ISSUE. THIS LEFT ME WITH NO OTHER RECOURSE OTHER THEN PAYING THE $600.00 TO PULL THE FUSE TO THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. I NOW NOTE THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM ON RIGHT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES LIKE MINE. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP SEVERAL TIMES AND EACH TIME THEY HAVE REFUSED TO COVER THIS ISSUE. SO KNOW I TURN TO YOU.

THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE CONTROL PANEL ILLUMINATES INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. THE DURATION OF ILLUMINATION FLUCTUATES FROM SECONDS TO 20 MINUTES. THE FAULTY COMPONENT IS THE CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY.

Mileage: 79,700

THE CLOCK SPRING CEASED TO WORK TURNING OFF THE AIRBAG, THERE WAS A SHUDDER AND THE TCS (TRACTION CONTROLLED SYSTEM) BEGAN BRAKING ON ITS OWN. THEN WHEN THE BRAKES WERE DEPRESSED THE SYSTEM WENT SHUDDERY AND QUIT WORKING. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2007 THRU 2013 JEEP WRANGLERS AND THERE IS A RECALL ON THE PART, EXCEPT THAT CRYSLER HAS DETERMINED THAT IT ONLY AFFECTS A VERY LIMITED NUMBER OF JEEPS. THIS IS NOT THE CASE. A SEARCH ON GOOGLE WILL SHOW HUNDREDS OF CASES WHERE THE CLOCK SPRING BREAKS, CAUSING THE AIRBAGS TO BECOME TURNED OFF AND THE END AND TCS SYSTEMS TO GO HAYWIRE, MAKING THE VEHICLE UNCONTROLLABLE AND UNDRIVEABLE. CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO RECALL THE PART IN WRANGLERS JEEP LIBERTY AND TWO OTHER BRANDS. THE HAZZARD IS COMPOUNDED IMMENSELY IF YOU HAPPEN TO GET (DEATH WOBBLE) YET ANOTHER UNFIXED ISSUE. THIS WILL LEAD TO ACCIDENTS AND DEATH, IF IT HASN'T ALREADY.

THE CURRENT RECALL IS AS FOLLOWS: CHRYSLER IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2008-2012 RIGHT HAND DRIVE (RHD) JEEP WRANGLER VEHICLES MANUFACTURED FROM FEBRUARY 1, 2007, THROUGH OCTOBER 10, 2011. SOME VEHICLES MAY BE EQUIPPED WITH DRIVER'S AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLIES THAT COULD EXPERIENCE A COMPROMISED AIRBAG CIRCUIT RESULTING IN AN AIRBAG LAMP ILLUMINATION, WHICH INDICATES THAT THE AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY. CONSEQUENCE: A BROKEN ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT IN THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING WIRING ASSEMBLY CAN LEAD TO NON-DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRIVER FRONTAL AIRBAG AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PROPERLY PROTECT THE DRIVER IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURIES. REMEDY: CHRYSLER WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND REMEDY THE VEHICLES AS NECESSARY FREE OF CHARGE. CHRYSLER WILL MAIL TO OWNERS AN INTERIM NOTIFICATION DURING MARCH 2012. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403. NOTES: CHRYSLER'S RECALL NUMBER IS L37. OWNERS MAY ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-327-4236. *TR

AIRBAG WARNING CHIME AND LIGHT COME ON WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. BOTH RESET WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED. CAUSE OF FAILURE IS BAD AIRBAG CLOCK SPRING. RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR RIGHT HAND DRIVE WRANGLERS BUT DOES NOT COVER LEFT HAND DRIVE WRANGLES. I AM A AVID OFF ROAD ENTHUSIAST AND BELIEVE THE EXPOSURE TO DIRT/DUST IS THE ROOT CAUSE. THIS WAS THE FINDING WITH RHD JEEPS DUE THE NATURE OF POSTAL SERVICE USE. SINCE MY VEHICLE IS USED OFF ROAD WITH THE DOORS REMOVED I DO FEEL THE CONDITIONS ARE CLOSE TO WHAT A POSTAL JEEP MAY EXPERIENCE. THIS IS THE INTENDED USE FOR THIS VEHICLE AND THE CLOCK SPRING SHOULD NOT FAIL. *TR

THEY ARE STILL USING THE SAME PART THAT WAS RECALLED IN 2007. THERE IS A RECALL ON CURRENT RHD JEEPS WITH THIS EXACT PART. MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH A DOCUMENTED FAULTY PART THAT SHUTS OFF THE AIRBAG. CAN'T FIGURE WHY CHRYSLER WON'T FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. AFTER SOME QUICK INTERNET RESEARCH IT SEEMS THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL OF 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 AND 2012 JEEP WRANGLERS FAILS. THIS CAUSES AND OPEN CIRCUIT AND AIR BAG DISABLES. VEHICLES WAS BROUGHT TO JEEP DEALER ON APRIL 19, 2014. DEALER VERIFIED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING WAS BAD AND THERE WAS AN OPEN CIRCUIT TO THE DRIVER AIR BAG. JEEP WOULD NOT ASSIST IN REPLACEMENT OF THE PART SAYING IT WAS WAS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ITEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THERE HAVE BEEN MANY REPORTS OF THIS PART FAILING EARLY IN THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. DEALER CHARGED ME $320 PARTS AND LABOR FOR THE REPAIR.

I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT YET, BUT A YEAR AGO I STARTED HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES INSIDE THE STEERING WHEEL OF MY 2009 JEEP WRANGLER. I WAS TOLD IT IS CALLED THE CLOCK SPRING. WITH A BAD CLOCK SPRING, MY HORN AND CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK, AND ALSO MY AIR BAG LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. IF I WERE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT I DO NOT FEEL SAFE KNOWING MY AIR BAGS ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY. ALSO, WITH A BAD CLOCK SPRING THERE ARE CHANCES OF MY AIR BAG ACTIVATING RANDOMLY FOR NO REASON SO THAT REALLY WORRIES ME. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN WRECKED INTO SEVERAL TIMES AND I AM NOT ABLE TO HONK MY HORN. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, I WAS BASICALLY TOLD THAT IT HAS BEEN A VERY COMMON PROBLEM IN 2008-2012 JK JEEP WRANGLERS BUT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART TO FIX IT. I FIGURED THERE WOULD BE A RECALL FOR IT SINCE IT IS SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM, BUT ONLY THE RIGHT HAND DRIVE JEEP WRANGLERS HAD A CLOCK SPRING RECALL. I BELIEVE THE RECALL NUMBER FOR THOSE ARE M31 AND L37. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE LEFT HAND DRIVE 2009 JK JEEP WRANGLERS ARE EXCLUDED FROM THIS RECALL. THIS IS VERY HAZARDOUS AND I FEEL UNSAFE KNOWING MY AIR BAGS MAY NOT WORK AND ALSO KNOWING I COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF MY AIR BAGS GO OFF RANDOMLY. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT I KNOW MORE JEEPS LIKE MINE THAT ARE DRIVING AROUND WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF THIS ISSUE COULD BE LOOKED INTO. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

I AM WRITING TO COMPLAIN THAT MY 4 YEAR OLD VEHICLE HAS A MAJOR FAILURE IN ITS AIR BAG SAFETY SYSTEM. I'VE CALLED THE DEALER AND ASKED IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS ON MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD NO. I THEN WROTE TO JEEP WHICH INVOLVED A TIMELY PROCESS OF JOINING A JEEP MEMBER CLUB. AFTER COMPLAINING TO JEEP I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL OR WARRANTY LEFT ON MY VEHICLE. HOW CAN YOU SELL A VEHICLE AND OFFER FINANCING BUT THEY CANT WARRANTY A PART THAT HAS FAILED , AND IS NOT A COMMONLY REPLACED OR WEARABLE ITEM. ONLY TO FIND ITS REPLACEMENT PART IS ONLY AVAILABLE THROUGH THE DEALER. I HAVE OWNED AND OPERATED A REPAIR FACILITY FOR 7 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A CLOCKSPRING ON SUCH A NEW VEHICLE .

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT AND WARNING TONE STARTED COMING ON AND TURNING OFF IN APPROX. ONE MINUTE CYCLES.I LOOKED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL AND IT WARNED OF A POSSIBLE PROBLEM WITH MY AIR BAG AND IT NEEDED TO BE RETURNED TO THE DEALER ASAP. THE DEALER CHECKED IT AND SAID THAT THE AIR BAG CLOCK SPRING, IS BROKEN AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER SERVICE CONSULTANT WARNED THAT THE AIR BAG MAY GO OFF ON ITS OWN WHEN BEING OPERATED NORMALLY OR, NOT AT ALL IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. THIS JEEP IS A LEFT HAND DRIVE VEHICLE AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. IN DOING ON LINE RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND MANY, MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME KIND. I FEEL THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO REPLACE IT AT THEIR COST BECAUSE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE ON A FAIRLY NEW VEHICLE, ALSO THE RIGHT HAND DRIVE CARS ARE UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

I HAVE MY 2009 JEEP WRANGLER AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT IT HAS A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING WITHIN THE STEERING WHEEL ASSEMBLY. THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE AND CONCERN FOR MANY 2008, 2009 AND LATER JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) OWNERS. THIS FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS THE CULPRIT FOR POTENTIAL AIRBAG FAILURE IN THE 2009 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DURING AN ACCIDENT OR PREMATURE DEPLOYMENT WHEN SIMPLY DRIVING AROUND. I HAVE CALLED JEEP/CHRYSLER AND THEY REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY CONCERN OF THEIR FAULTY CLOCKSPRING THAT CAN CAUSE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS FROM PROPERLY DEPLOYING.

RECALL 11V528). TO SUPPORT THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE, WHEN I CALLED A JEEP DEALERSHIP'S PARTS DEPARTMENT THEY TOLD ME THE CLOCKSPRING FOR MY 2009 JEEP WRANGLER HAS BEEN SUPERSEDED BY 8 PART NUMBERS.

ABOUT THREE OR FOUR DAYS PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT, I NOTICED UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE(2009 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON - LHD), THAT THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WAS LIT, INDICATING THAT THE AIRBAG WAS NOT FUNCTIONING. I HAD NOTICED PREVIOUSLY THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD COME ON, AND THEN GO AWAY, SO I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT. HOWEVER, ON THE DATE OF THE INCIDENT, AS I DROVE THE VEHICLE AND WAS TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A THIN PLASTIC WRAPPER "CRINKLING" AS IF CAUGHT BETWEEN THE STATIONARY PART OF THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE ROTATING REAR SECTION OF THE STEERING WHEEL. WHEN I STOPPED THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED A FLAT STRIP PLASTIC ENCASED COPPER WIRE LEADS APPEARED TO BE UNRAVELING FROM BETWEEN THE STATIONARY PORTION OF THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE ROTATING REAR SECTION OF THE STEERING WHEEL. I DROVE THE VEHICLE TO MY AUTO REPAIR GARAGE, AND THE TECHNICIAN IDENTIFIED THE PART AS THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY. THE ASSEMBLY APPARENTLY FAILED DURING NORMAL VEHICLE USE AND NOW RESULTS IN A REDUCED LEVEL OF PROTECTION FOR MYSELF IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENT. AFTER RESEARCHING THE MATTER, I HAVE DISCOVERED THAT MANY OTHER OWNERS OF 2008, 2009 AND 2010 JEEP WRANGLERS (LHD) HAVE EXPERIENCED SIMILAR FAILURES WITH THEIR AIRBAGS. THE REPAIR GARAGE ADVISED ME THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON RHD JEEP WRANGLERS OF THE SAME MODEL YEARS FOR THE SAME ASSEMBLY. *TR

MY AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT TURNED ON. IT WOULD INTERMITTENTLY TURN ON AND OFF AFTER THAT UNTIL I HAD IT FIXED. IT WOULD TURN ON AND OFF WITH A FREQUENCY OF ABOUT ONE EVERY OTHER MINUTE SOUNDING OFF A WARNING CHIME. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND LEARNED THAT THIS SYMPTOM IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MY MODEL YEAR OF VEHICLE AND HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH MODEL YEARS 2007 AND UP. THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE CLOCKSPRING MECHANISM IN THE STEERING COLUMN THAT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE AIR BAG. IT APPARENTLY HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAG AND IS ALREADY THE SUBJECT OF RECALLS ON OTHER MODEL YEARS AS WELL AS A RECALL ON THE 2009 RHD VERSION OF THE WRANGLER. THEY CLEARLY ARE USING THE SAME PART ON THESE MODELS AND SHOULD BE A RECALL ON ALL MODELS THAT HAVE THIS PART. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER TO GET FIXED AND JEEP DETERMINED THAT IT WAS A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING MECHANISM AND I HAD IT REPLACED AS IT OBVIOUSLY IS A SAFETY RISK. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS AND HAVE THEM RECALL ALL MODELS WITH THE SAME CLOCKSPRING MECHANISM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT OR KILLED. I AM CURRENTLY NEGOTIATING WITH CHRYSLER CORPORATION REGARDING THIS REPAIR BUT I PAID FOR THE ENTIRE REPAIR MYSELF. *TR
