I have made several attempt to get this fixed and they kept telling me that when they get the part they will fix it. This has been on going for more than a year. The vehicles may experience loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability in certain crash events due to a shorting condition resulting in a negative voltage transient that travels to the occupant restraint controller via the front impact sensor wires. Recall status recall incomplete remedy the occupant restraint controller must be replaced. Safety risk descrpition the potential loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability in such crash events may increase the risk of injury in a crash.

NHTSA safety recall 16V-668; owner was sent a recall notice 13 Sep 2016 regarding possible loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment but that parts were not currently available, a follow-up notice would be sent when they were. Owner waited until Feb 2017 and contacted local dealer who confirmed parts still not available. Owner again contacted local dealer in July 2017 and was told parts still not available. Complaint is that it is taking an unreasonable amount of time to remedy a very important safety issue.

I own a 2013 Jeep Patriot. I have had nothing but issues with it and I purchased it brand new in December of 2012. From it turning completely off on me while sitting at lights. To it having power surges, and the seatbelts stop working. I had the engine replaced March of 2016 and it only has 60,000 miles on it to date. According to what Chrysler said, it malfunctioned on me and it left me stranded on a freeway late at night. There is a constant issue with the coolant system. And I am now needing another engine it, because of that issue. And Chrysler wont cover it even though it is under warranty. I will never purchase another Jeep vehicle.

I am not sure how long a recall typically takes. I received this letter in November 2016 and it is January 11, 2017. It has been 2 months and the parts have not been ordered yet as an effort to correct things. I don't want to get anyone in trouble but just thought I would bring that to your attention. Thank you for your help!
