Steering wheel controls stopped working which also included the ability to use the horn. The air bag light also came on making the air bag system non operating. Is not a fuse issue.

I pulled into parking space, foot on brake, ( zero speed naturally) as I started to move shifter from drive to park, the engine roared and Jeep accelerated up over curb and ~ 20ft till I hit the corner of the la fitness building ( my destination) all the time with my foot depressed very hard on the brake. Damaging front bumper, grill, headlight and windshield on left corner (driver side). I deployed all my strength to brake during event with no effect, turned off car, and put it in park. Air bag did not deploy. 1-10-2019 at ~ 8:45am. Carrolton Texas (75007 ) police report # 2019008855, officer elmore # 680 filed on 1-10-2019. I called huffines Jeep dealership to inquire if issues with sudden acceleration had been reported (officer reccomend I check before I drive to their repair shop) bob in customer service said he did not know of any issues or recalls. So I slowly drove with warning light active at ~ 20 mph to shop to start repairs (geico ins. Claim # 0529467460101044 )
Airbag light came on, took to dealer they said clockspring clogged which shuts down airbag functionality, need to replace clockspring. Checked web, found that Chrysler recalled all Jeep year 2007 thru 2011(393,000) for design defect of clockspring stating it can get clogged resulting in inoperable airbag like my son experienced. Then noticed they recalled 2011 thru 2016 right hand drive for same defect. I asked if our clockspring was same design which response was yes so I asked why ours wasn't recalled and covered by Chrysler and response was it wasn't. if product is same for all those years it should be recalled because accident will happen and someone will get seriously hurt if airbags do not deploy. Clockspring is same design in my son's Jeep as all the others that were recalled.

The seatbelt/airbag light went on at 27000 miles. One dealer said it was the wiring under the seat and another said it was the seatbelt.

This is concerning and I am scared to have anyone ride on the passenger side. I am attaching the prodemand report. Please contact me as soon as possible. The light went on when I started the car,
When you pull onto the road it starts to hit the brakes and when you try to hit the gas it still hits the gas then the ABS comes on than the anti slip comes on and than the other one comes on like you are going down the hill comes on. It keeps up hitting my brakes than for a little while it lets up off my brakes but the lights stay on.
Airbag light is on, cruise control (as well as all other controls mounted on the steering wheel) are inoperable. This was gradual; I noticed cruise control didn't work first, then the rest of the controls including the airbag stopped shortly after. This was during highway driving (a coast-to-coast road trip).
Clock spring failure. When stationary the instrument cluster is showing an airbag alert and all control buttons in the steering wheel except cruse control have failed. When the left spoke of the steering wheel is rotated counter clockwise to the 2 O'clock position the airbag alert turns off and all buttons work but only in that position. No difference when in motion except a ding when the steering wheel is turned past a certain position.
