I have what is known as a common problem. Jeep death wobble. I can't understand why this isn't under recall. The car starts vibrating while in motion starting at 50 mph. If in traffic I have to come to a complete stop for it to stop wobbling. It happens daily and is dangerous. Started about 2 years ago. Last happened yesterday. Getting worse.
The contact owns a 2010 Jeep Wrangler. The contact received a recall notification for NHTSA campaign numbers: 16V290000 (service brakes, air, electronic stability control) and 18V021000 (air bags). The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time to repair the vehicle. Jake sweeney Chrysler Jeep (85 w kemper rd, cincinnati, oh 45246) confirmed that parts were not available to perform the recall repairs. The manufacturer was not notified. The contact also stated that an unknown warning indicator was illuminated. The failure mileage was unknown. Parts distribution disconnect.
All the break lights came on at one time (esp, bas, ABS) and the traction control will not go off. I was slowing down at a stop sign in a school parking lot. No rain or other weather events occured, on dry pavement
Takata airbag recall letter and also the clockspring recall on my Jeep needs to be fixed and the defective airbag is on the passenger side so I can not even have passengers in it please fix the clockspring and advise on the airbag
On the 2010 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 2010 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 2010 Jeep Wrangler (lhd) during an accident or premature deployment when simply driving around. Fiat Chrysler has refused to address the safety concern of their faulty clockspring that can cause failure of the vehicle's airbags from properly deploying. My Jeep Wrangler has just over 50K miles and both the esp / bas light and the airbag warning light have begun flashing and chiming intermittently. I was told by Fiat Chrysler that the clock spring on the 2010 (lhd) is not included in the clock spring extended warranty available to other model years and the RHD version on the same model year. The clock spring is the same in all of the affected vehicles and represents a potential threat of serious injury or death should the airbag fail to deploy in an accident or deploy prematurely.

E S P a deadly idea that is being forced upon us. May of 2010 I purchased a Jeep Wrangler unlimited. First weekend of September I had E S P failure. Took it to Jeep the following wed. They attempted to return it to me unable to duplicate, no parts replaced. The problem did not "go away ". E S P failures have been happening since 2007. A safety device to save you in a crash should not cause the crash. Only about 12,300 miles on the vehicle. Factory stock. No mods. Jeep buying back the vehicle will not protect me or my loved ones. The others will still be out there on the road. Forced legislation of this will actually create other problems in addition to the failures. Various "hack jobs" will be performed in order to remedy the problem but will actually cause more problems. I already have to Dodge weaving drivers for other reasons. Drunks are at least attempting to drive. Has no one any common sense anymore? if I wanted to be driven I would hire a chauffeur. Remember the auto seat belts that threw people out of their cars and caused them to be killed or paralyzed. ( I personally know someone that this happened to). How about the air bags decapitating children? that really saved lives there. Let us not forget the recent prius failures.
