Takata recall-- I had an accident January 7, 2016, I hit a pole. The airbags did not deploy. I did a search and I found out there was a recall on this Jeep. I only had liability insurance. I got in touch with the company they had the car towed to a dealership and supposedly had it checked out but I don't believe it. I myself and my girlfriend was injured and under doctors care. My car is tore up in the front. Why? those airbags did not deploy. They could not tell me. I was traveling on rte 49 East.
The contact owns a 2001 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated that the air bag indicator illuminated. The failure occurred multiple times. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.
While driving, the cruise control didn't set the speed when engaged. The vehicle was taken to a dealership, who indicated that a clock spring failure caused the cruise control to malfunction. The horn is also not operational. The clock spring will be replaced. The right front door contained rust
Premature vapors from the air bag escaped into the compartment of the truck choking the driver until unconscious. The Jeep then crossed the highway/medium, striking another vehicle head on and then rolling four times. The air bags never deployed after the extent of damage from collision and rollover. Estimated speed of impact was 35 mph.
