In December of 2012, we received a recall notice from Chrysler regarding the occupant restrain control (orc) of the airbag system. The airbags deploy inadvertently when over stressed. We are fortunate that this has not happened to us...yet! on December 16,2013, one year later, I called both pamby's Chrysler dealership (where we take our car for service) and the corporate offices for Chrysler to report that our airbag light is now on permanently. We were and are concerned that the air bag might deploy while we are driving the vehicle and cause an accident. Both pamby's and Chrysler have stated that they have not received the part-one year later! I gave all of my contact information to Chrysler with a promise that my concerns would be addressed via email. No one has contacted me.now I have received an additional recall for the trailer hitch as it causes fires! how long will it take to repair this? we have owned Jeep for almost forty years but with the new "we don't care about your safety" attitude, we will not buy another. Thank you for your assistance.

Airbag light is on, took vehicle to Jeep dealer to diagnose problem and was told that there is a problem with the control module as per NHTSA id # 12V527000 however was told by Chrysler as of date has a no fix solution for the problem to just keep driving the vehicle until a fix is found, so my college age son is now driving a vehicle with faulty airbags. I asked them why they could not replace the faulty module with a new one under this recall ( 12V527000 ) and was told no unless I paid for it and that Chrysler would not pay for it as replacement is not what is stipulated in the recall for which they have no fix.
I received a recall notice more than a year ago #M35/NHTSA 12V-527 regarding the orc module, but still have not been contacted by Jeep. When I contacted my dealer, they said that they did not have the part yet. The recall notice said to contact this address if it was not repaired in a reasonable amount of time.

I was sent notice 6 months or so ago, and have called kimberly Chrysler 3 times with regard to the safety recall for the airbag system occupant restraint control module. I was told that I would hear from Jeep as to when this would be taken care of. I read on the Chrysler recall paper that if I did not get this taken care of to report this to you. I would like to have this taken care of, and I am very upset that the dealership does not think that my Jeep is important enough to handle this matter. Please advise. [xxx]I can't always use the phone since I am a stroke surveyor. Thank you so very much and I look forward to herding from you.

Airbag warning indicator illuminated at vehicle start up. Indicator remains on continuously as described under NHTSA 12V-527. Dealer stated on 6/13/13 that Jeep has no fix for this issue and has no intention of correcting this issue in the future.
Chrysler issued a recall on the air bag system occupant restraint control module (safety recall M35/NHTSA 12V-527 in Nov of 2012. Owners were notified of the recall in Jan of 2013. As of today Nov 20, 2013, according to my local dealer, Chrysler still has not made parts available to make the repair. This is unacceptable for a defect that according to the recall could cause "inadvertent deployment of the airbags and may increase the risk of injury and the possibility of a vehicle crash." In addition in August of this year my air bag warning light came on and the dealer determined that the vehicle required replacement of the air system occupant restraint control (orc) module. Chrysler refused to pay for the repair even though the recall specifically states that the orc module "has a small chance of experiencing an electrical overstress condition. Should this overstress condition occur, it could damage one of the orc's computer chips. A damaged chip could cause the air bag light to illuminate..." I had to pay out-of-pocket $620.89 for the repair, which Chrysler again refused to reimburse me after my follow up attempts to seek reimbursement.

Air bag light on had dealer diagnose as "right front impact sensor" I have been looking to buy a Jeep and this was the third one I had looked at with an airbag light on I think the sensor is faulty and should be recalled for the safety of drivers.
A vehicle recall notice was received 13 months ago advising of imminent airbag deployment in vehicles which have airbag warning lights on. This description fits my vehicle. Over 13 months later, and none of the Jeep dealerships in the denver area have ever received parts for this repair. I would like to file a complaint against Chrysler regarding the failure to fix recalled units. 13 months is a bit extreme. And on top of that, new recalls have since been announced regarding the plastic fuel tank. I doubt that I'll ever see that repair...
