There is currently a recall our on the front passenger airbag inflator (pab). I scheduled an appointment on at premier cape cod on March 19th to have it serviced for the recall on March 30th, to be told they don't do recalls on saturdays. I work and live two hours from this location so it's very inconvenient for me to get to this location during the work week, as I travel frequently as well. The earliest I can get the Jeep to the cape is Friday, April 26th and even that is substantially inconvenient - they are unwilling to provide me with a loaner for the service as well. I'm disappointed and concerned given that "an inflator explosion may cause metal fragments to pass through the air bag and into the vehicle interior which may result in injury or death." Anyway, just thought I'd put in my two cents.

Takata recall received recall notice and tried to schedule appoimtment for repairs and dealer can't get parts and told me to try back every month or so. This is unacceptable!
I have the 2014 Jeep Wrangler with only 47000 miles. I have kept excellent care of this vehicle and it is used only as daily driver with no abuse whatsoever.just within the month of 2/2019 a code; P0305 misfire developed with the typical penastar engine "knock" and idling rough. Also, the last week of 2/2019 there was a large oil spot on my garage floor due to an oil cooler/oil housing leak. We immediately contacted the service supervisor at the dealership who stated that this has been a common occurance and the oil cooler/housing unit is replaced often. How it is possible that Chrysler can allow this? at 47000 miles this should never happen and is enexceptable.until this extensive repair is completed the vehicle is is rendered useless and my job is now interrupted. Now in addtion to the misfire I now have this huge oil leak to contend with; please refer to the picture attached of the oil stain that was discovered on my garage floor.... the entire bottom of the of my transmission/bell housing and cross member covered in oil. Moreover I just received an letter informing me that the passenger side air bag also is recalled and I have yet to address this as well. I will never purchase another Chrysler product again. I can't tell you the level of disappointment and betrayal I feel for buying an "american made" car. I hope Chrysler/Fiat corperate is enjoying short changing the consumer buy using inferior and faulty parts to save money and rip off the consumer this way. I am sure no one cares and I am just wasting my time but this should be noted and people made aware.

Takata inflater. The problem isn't the recall. The problem is getting the dealership to fix it in a timely manner. The dealership says they don't know when they will have parts that Chrysler (Fiat) is rationing them. Why is my safety in jeopardy because Jeep won't approve parts?

Takara recall, but no parts available to fix, and dealers have no way to order the new part, fix unknown to them to date. Major safety issue, can cause death.
After getting a fine dust within the cabin of the Jeep I had my airbag light come on. After doing research I saw there was a recall for this exact problem but I was informed that my Jeep was not in the recall list. I find this highly concerning as the safety recall S40 is exactly what happened to my Jeep when the airbag light came on. I would like this to be looked into as it is a major safety issue that the company already has placed a recall for Jeep of my year of make.
Takata recall the air bag light came on while in motion. I took it in for service and with 3 hours of checking unable to verify the problem. I have been with out a vehicle for a day and a half. I do have it at the dealership. Is this a manufactured issue
My 2014 Wrangler has the same symptoms as the Jeep Wrangler clockspring recall that is for 2007-2010 years. My airbag deactivation light comes on intermittently when I turn the steering wheel or hit bumps. It happens 2-3 times a day and when it does the airbag can be deactivated for up to 10-15 minutes before turning the wheel or giving the steering column a good whack brings it back to life. This has been going on for about 2 months and has been getting progressively worse.
Takata recall, my car was rear ended by another vehicle at a speed approximately 45mph. My car was stopped 3rd on the red light driver seat broke off. No air bags was activated. My question is why? all passengers was sustain major injuries. Now all been under doctors supervision. The driver who is rear ended us fell asleep.
My clock spring has went out. Just curious how the 2014 jku has an active recall on this issue but not the 2014 jk. I've also been reading on numerous Jeep forums that my airbags will not deploy due to this.
One day after leaving my 9 hour shift at work, I walked up to my Jeep and could see that the driver side airbag had deployed at some point during the day. Not knowing much about airbags I walked around the Jeep to see if it been hit, no damage of any kind. I've since learned that airbags don't deploy on parked vehicles unless they are running. I called the dealership where I originally purchased (new) my Jeep. They told me to have it towed to the shop and they would investigate. After asking me if the vehicle had been hit, they said maybe a rabbit or some other rodent ate through some wiring. Their investigation did not uncover anything (no wiring issue, no codes, nothing) and they wanted to call in Chrysler engineering and possibly an inspector due to their access to additional diagnostic capabilities. After I asked for a loaner vehicle since this was now going to take several days, they called me back and said they had permission to replace the "now deemed defective airbag". the 2014 model year was not included in any of the takata recalls, nor was the issue similar to the takata recall or the coil spring recall. Thank god I wasn't going 75 down the highway when the airbag decided to spontaneously deploy. Its going to take a while to get over the fear of driving this vehicle after the airbag is replaced and this possibly happening again since they can't explain what happened. 2014 Wrangler unlimited rubicon 25,620 miles vehicle was stationary (parked) not running for the previous 9 hours at a secure facility with 24 hour video monitoring.
Overnight failure while parked: Started Jeep in the morning and discovered no interior dome light upon entering, no turn signals, no headlights, no wiper controls, no steering wheel controls, no seat heaters, no esp control. Troubleshooting revealed a grounded clock spring causing critical system failures rendering the vehicle unsafe to drive. These same clock springs were recalled by NHTSA on May 11, 2016 under campaign number 16V288000 ( https://www.NHTSA.gov/recalls?nhtsaid=16V288) only on right-hand drive vehicles for "contamination failures" causing air bag failures where they were replaced and a more protective steering wheel trim shroud was installed. It's safe to say that the left-hand drive vehicles are experiencing the same failure and are no more exempt from these contamination failures. It's also safe to say, I have the same failure and the same air bag malfunction that, thankfully, I did not discover. Thank god I was not in an accident where the air bag didn't fire, or I would have had need to hire an attorney.
"takata recall" I was in automobile accident on the 23rd of may, a front end collision and the airbags did not deploy, the shoulder/seat belt kept me from major injury.
On the 2014 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 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 jk 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.
Clock spring broken with no pertinent damage to vehicle or pertinent events, woke up one morning and the entire steeling column didn't work electrically.
Clockspring recall (NHTSA recall # 16V-288) ( manuf recall # S40) affects not only the airbag but.. also....."causes a non working horn". no horn is a safety hazard by not having it working at any time while operating (stopped or driving) the Jeep. Jeep dealers have "no" est of when repair part will be available"??" ""not acceptable on the part of Jeep/Chrysler!!!!!''' the consumer stated the steering wheel wires, engine rockers, front U joints, engine harness and fuel injector harness, front drive shaft adn suspension all failed and needed to be repaired. The vehicle lost steering while driving. The front axle assembly bracket had broken.
