This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The seat belts in the back when buckling are locked. Making it hard to move around. Since day the I bought the car. Took it to the dealership for repair and they said they found nothing. Only after my warranties were up did they say they would fix the problem if I paid for the labor. The engine has an oil consumption problem also from the first day I bought it, the dealership has covered it up again until the warranty was expired. They found 5 leaky areas in the engine.
The contact owns a 2007 Jeep Wrangler. While making a left turn, another vehicle collided with the front passenger side of the contact's vehicle. The passenger side air bag failed to deploy. A police report was filed. The contact sustained injuries to the left ankle and the driver sustained bruises. Medical attention was required. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot and then to an auto body shop for repairs. In addition, the passenger seat belt warning indicator randomly chimed and illuminate. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign numbers: 16V290000 (air bags) and 16V352000 (air bags). The parts needed to do the repairs were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issues. The failure mileage was unknown. - (recall related incident)
Both front seat-belts locked up with the Jeep parked. They will not unlock to allow you to buckle so that you can drive safely. We took to a Jeep dealership; but they want to charge us over 500 a seat to fix- said it ran out of warranty at 60,000 miles. This makes the vehicle unsafe to drive. I feel that they may be required by you guys to cover seat-belts longer than that. I have a invoice showing that we took the Jeep in and that the seat-belt retractors are stuck, but no way to upload from home.
On the 2007 Jeep Wrangler (lhd) dashboard, the airbag warning light flashes on every other minute with a chime, an indication that there is something malfunctioning or interfering with the vehicle's airbags.this has been a recurring issue and concern for many 2007 Jeep Wrangler (lhd) owners, including myself, and has been shown time and time again to be caused by a faulty clockspring within the vehicle's steering wheel. This faulty clockspring is the culprit for potential airbag failure in the 2007 Jeep Wrangler (lhd) during an accident or premature deployment when simply driving around. Daimler Chrysler has refused to address the safety concern of their faulty clockspring that can cause failure of the vehicle's airbags from properly deploying.
I was slowing while I was approaching a red light. The light turned green and I began my right turn. At this point, the front wheels wobbled and the steering tightened, taking me into the path of an oncoming vehicle (2010 Ford F-150) slowing to a stop for his red light. Upon impact, the seat belt (in use at the time) failed to actuate and the airbags failed to deploy, the driver's seat moved forward, throwing me into the steering wheel and windshield. I sustained a minor head laceration and impact trauma to the right chest. The combine speed of the crash was approximately 25-30 miles per hour. A passenger in the other vehicle was treated and released from the local hospital.
