I received this recall notice in late Oct/Nov 2016. The day I received it, I called the number listed and was put on a waiting list to let me know when the part was available. I received another recall notice the week of 8/21/17 for the exact same reason. I called my Jeep dealership and told them about the recall notice a scheduled an appointment. This morning I go to drop off my Jeep and they tell me that they do not have the part and that they would put me on a list. This recall is just shy of a year old now. I feel that this should have been fixed by now. No one has ever called me about this part becoming available.

It has been 11 months since this recall. I contacted Jeep - there still isn't a fix. Air bags & seat belts that do not function properly are a major safety issue. My daughter is a new driver & I'm scared to let her drive. I bought this car for safety & it is not safe. I feel like there is something wrong with the suspension - it's now rattling under the front tire.

I have taken the Jeep back to the dealer 3 time to have the recall repaired. Each time I was told there is no salutation to the recall as of yet.
