Air bag service light came on. Took it to a reputable repair business. Diagnosed with codes B0020-13 Left side seat deployment Squib 1. Found tech service bulletin #10-002-18 for replacing air bag seat harness and seat bolts for this code. Chrysler recommends BOTH harnesses are replaced (left and right). Chrysler is charging $2,677.16 For the parts. They say it is a 'common' problem and in fact the parts are on back order until at least January 19th. This is a safety issue as the airbag will not deploy. The vehicle is less than 10 years old, which meets two out of three criteria for it to be considered a recall issue. I cannot afford this type of repair which is a problem I did nothing to create.

this vehicle shows all recalls have been completed. however, every time it rains, the hatch compartment fills with water. 10/30/2022, my electronic parking brake light came on and the vehicle was stuck in park. Once we got the car home, I opened the hatch and removed the spare tire; there was standing water in the area from rain. This morning I was leaving for work an d the following lights came on; 1) Service 4WD 2) Service electronic Parking Brake 3) Service Airbags 4) Service Front Collision system 5) Service auto start stop 6) Adaptive Cruise Control not available 7) cruise/ fcw unab=vailable- service required This vehicle has been a complete nightmare. I did record the event as we used a shop vac to remove the water. the Service 4 wd light comes on and goes off randomly daily; the PTU was "flashed" but the problem continued. I have contacted the dealership only to be told all recalls are complete and I must pay for the additional repairs. I have contacted Jeep and have had zero resolutions.

I was driving and the Jeep died on the road. This happened 2 days (April 4 & 5th, 2021) in a row. No warning lights. I had to remove the key and open the door to reset the system and then it finally restarted. Tires plus reports no codes when diagnosing. Waiting to hear from Jeep.

Vehicle was in motion when it left the road. I swerved to miss a dog. I had my seatbelt on during this accident however my head (top, right front of my head) hit the windshield glass and the glass broke/shattered. My hair was caught in the broken cracks of the glass on the windshield and my hair was pulled out of my head, I guess when the seatbelt pulled me back into position it managed to keep my hair lodged. I got small pieces of glass out of my scalp for a week. I had other injuries as well. Every single airbag of this car was deployed and my vehicle a total loss. I was only going around 45 mph. I am thankful to be here sharing this passage. I just have tried to figure out how I managed to hit the windshield while my seatbelt was on my body and the airbags deployed.

My daughter wrecked on 4/11 and her Jeep rolled twice in which the front and side airbags didn't deploy. The roof smashed into her head rest resulting in a concussion, fractured hip, and torn hamstring. She was lifelighted.

Traveling on highway I 94 at 70mph 5pm Jan 10th, 2018, came into contact with vehicle while merging into center lane. His car forces mine into a spin, I crashed head on into the concrete barrier/wall separating the East and West bound lanes. None of the airbags in the entire vehicle deployed. Neither the driver, passenger or side curtain airbags deployed. I survived but had two breaks in the sternal chest plate, a fractured right rib and broken left wrist requiring surgery resulting in screws and plates installed. Medical bills over $80K I was wearing my seatbelt the entire time. That day the weather was clear and approx 40-45 degrees. Through the dealer, I contacted the manufacturers customer service which directed me to their forensic team so they could obtain the black box in the vehicle and access to the car. I have serious concerns regarding not only my safety but others that own the same make and model. I am 73 years old and everyone from the ambulance driver to the state trooper that was on the scene of the accident said that I have a lawsuit here. I do not want to file suit. I don't have the time or the inclination to go that direction but I feel that the manufacturer owes me and the other customers something should they find themselves in my position. The manufacturers representative was not very helpful and I feel that I am getting the brush off and they have not returned my calls. I am hesitant to be a complainer. I hope that Jeep/Chrysler address this safety issue for me as well as others that may have the same concerns.
