The RHD Jeep Wranglers had a recall on all the clock springs. I had mine fixed, it lasted a year and then broke again. Every mail carrier I know has the same issue. I believe the recall needs to become a lifetime recall, not a singular recall. They are all failing again causing postal employees to be at risk for fatality with the airbag failing to deploy.

Notified during July 2019 of 2 recalls (S43 and S33). On 7/12/2019 S43 was completed. S33 parts were ordered. The first eta was in September. That was canceled due to lack of parts. I have brought this to the attention of the dealer and to "all star Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram" but there is still no date and was told there is a large back order list and no known date as to when the part will be available. The recall notice said "it is extremely important to take steps now to repair your vehicle to ensure the safety of you and your passengers." I have taken these steps. Chrysler has put in an part order and cannot give me a date as to when this can be fixed. The size of this backlog indicates there are many installations needed.
