CLOCKSPRING RECALL: OTHER YEAR MODELS OF THE SAME GENERATION WRANGLER SHOW A CLOCKSPRING RECALL, BUT MY YEAR MODEL DOESN'T. MY CLOCKSPRING HAS FAILED NOW AND I LOST MOST OF THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS, INCLUDING MY SAFETY HORN, AND IF MY RESEARCH IS CORRECT, MY DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY NOW IF IN A COLLISION ACCIDENT. WHEN TURNING MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD TURN ON RANDOMLY, AND THEN WHEN DRIVING SHORTLY AFTERWARDS I WENT TO HONK AT ANIMALS IN THE ROAD AND THE HORN DID NOT WORK. THE NEXT DAY I NOTICED THAT THE RADIO AND DRIVER INFORMATION CENTER CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL DID NOT WORK EITHER.

TAKARA RECALL. MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT 16 W LANCASTER AVE SHILLINGTON PA 19607. I HAD IT PARKED IN THE BACK PARKING LOT. THE OWNER OF THE STORE CALLED ME TO INFORM ME THAT MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. HE HEARD IT FROM INSIDE THE STORE AND WENT OUTSIDE IMMEDIATELY TO INVESTIGATE. HE DIDNT SEE ANYONE LEAVE THE PARKING LOT AND THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. IT WAS RAINING VERY HARD THAT DAY BUT I FEEL THAT SHOULDNT HAVE CAUSED MY AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. WHEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENED I CALLED THE FCA RECALL NUMBER AT 1-833-585-0144 AND EXPLAINED THE SITUATION. THEY HAD AN INSPECTOR CALL ME BACK AND I DROPPED MY CAR OFF AT SAVAGE 61 IN READING PA TO HAVE HIM INSPECT MY JEEP. I WAS GIVEN CASE #[XXX] AND WAS TOLD THE DEALER AUTHORIZED REPAIR TO MY AIRBAG/STEERING WHEEL. SINCE THEN I'VE BEEN TRYING TO HAVE THEM FIX MY AIRBAG. ON 3/14 I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN TO TRY AND RESOLVE AND THEY TOLD ME I'D BE PUT ON A WAITING LIST. THE RECALL WAS FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. BUT MY DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG IS THE ONE THAT DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON IT JUST WENT OFF. SINCE THIS HAS HAPPENED I'VE BEEN TRYING WITHOUT SUCCESS TO HAVE SOMEONE FIX MY JEEP. I CANT GET IT INSPECTED UNTIL MY STEERING WHEEL IS REPLACED AND IT'S MY DAILY DRIVER. I REALLY NEED SOMEONE TO HELP ME GET THIS RESOLVED ASAP SO I CAN HAVE MY JEEP INSPECTED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

DAMAGING FRONT BUMPER, GRILL , HEADLIGHT AND WINDSHIELD ON LEFT CORNER (DRIVER SIDE). I DEPLOYED ALL MY STRENGTH TO BRAKE DURING EVENT WITH NO EFFECT, TURNED OFF CAR, AND PUT IT IN PARK. AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. 1-10-2019 AT ~ 8:45AM. CARROLTON TEXAS (75007 ) POLICE REPORT # 2019008855, OFFICER ELMORE # 680 FILED ON 1-10-2019.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK TO DEALER THEY SAID CLOCKSPRING CLOGGED WHICH SHUTS DOWN AIRBAG FUNCTIONALITY, NEED TO REPLACE CLOCKSPRING. CHECKED WEB, FOUND THAT CHRYSLER RECALLED ALL JEEPS YEAR 2007 THRU 2011(393,000) FOR DESIGN DEFECT OF CLOCKSPRING STATING IT CAN GET CLOGGED RESULTING IN INOPERABLE AIRBAG LIKE MY SON EXPERIENCED. THEN NOTICED THEY RECALLED 2011 THRU 2016 RIGHT HAND DRIVE FOR SAME DEFECT. I ASKED IF OUR CLOCKSPRING WAS SAME DESIGN WHICH RESPONSE WAS YES SO I ASKED WHY OURS WASN'T RECALLED AND COVERED BY CHRYSLER AND RESPONSE WAS IT WASN'T. IF PRODUCT IS SAME FOR ALL THOSE YEARS IT SHOULD BE RECALLED BECAUSE ACCIDENT WILL HAPPEN AND SOMEONE WILL GET SERIOUSLY HURT IF AIRBAGS DO NOT DEPLOY. CLOCKSPRING IS SAME DESIGN IN MY SON'S JEEP AS ALL THE OTHERS THAT WERE RECALLED.

THE SEATBELT/AIRBAG LIGHT WENT ON AT 27000 MILES. ONE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE WIRING UNDER THE SEAT AND ANOTHER SAID IT WAS THE SEATBELT. MY MUNICIPAL MECHANIC LOOKED UP RECALL INFORMATION ON THE ISSUE AND IT SEEMS AS THOUGH MY VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED. ANY 2013 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT MADE BEFORE 7/1/2013 HAS A FAULTY SEATBELT. THIS IS CONCERNING AND I AM SCARED TO HAVE ANYONE RIDE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I AM ATTACHING THE PRODEMAND REPORT. PLEASE CONTACT ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THE LIGHT WENT ON WHEN I STARTED THE CAR,
