My husband took our Jeep for a quick 5 mins drive round our neighborhood to keep the battery charged. About one minute after he start driving G he heard a bleep noise. As he was turning back to our house the passenger airbags on both sides deployed. I checked Jeep website and it stated the car had a recall R06 orc module. Contacted Jeep they said there is a recall since 2015 (we never received any paperwork). They refused to fix the airbags and suggest we contact dealer for completion of the recall.

On April 14, both of my front airbags deployed without reason while the car was idling stationary in drive with my foot on the brake. I was in the drivers seat and my two young boys were in the backseat. Fortunately, nobody was significantly injured. I suffered a bruised knuckle, and something flew in the back seat and hit my son in the head, but no injuries were significant enough to warrant a doctors visit. The damage to the interior of my car is significant. The steering wheel and dashboard will need to be replaced, the clock on my radio has stopped working, and my change drawer is broken. I called the recall hotline almost immediately after the event and they took my claim. My case number is 314 529 09. They instructed me that they would send out an inspector to come out and look over my vehicle. They also told me not to drive my vehicle in the meantime. I have a job and a family and I need a vehicle. It has been a week, and no inspector has called me. I have called the recall hotline 4 times since the initial event, and each time they put a note in my case number and promised an inspector would call. I need to know what to do next. I need to get a replacement vehicle or have my vehicle repaired. My insurance company will not cover this repair as I have liability coverage only. My VIN number is [xxx]. I am aware there are 2 recalls open on my car. The important one being recall R06 for the airbag system occupant restraint control module. This recall was addressed a few years ago but I was told that the part required to remedy the condition was not available, and that I will be contacted with a follow-up recall notice when the remedy parts are made available. I had never received this follow up recall notice. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I have received several safety recall notices (R06 / NHTSA 15V-046) for this vehicle. I have called my Jeep dealership (garlitch North vernon, in) service department several times since Feb. 15, 2016 to get the needed repair. They never call back to schedule an appointment or explain what the problem is. This has been going on for over 10 months, not a reasonable time to make a safety recall repair. Can someone explain what the problem is ?

My car was at the dealership for R06/NHTSA 15V-046 recall 3 times since March 2015. Each time the item to repair the recall was on back order and recall could not be fixed. Continued calls to the dealer was "they will contact me when parts are available. The last time was on October 7, 2016 still unable to fix due to back order parts. What can I do"?"
