2002 Dodge Grand Caravan Air bags Problems

“I rolled into the woman in front of me and my airbags deployed. There was no damage to either car except for the airbags. The driver airbag smacked me in the face and chest and thumb. I was only going about 3 MPH because I had stopped and the woman in front of me had stopped and we were both going forward to merge into traffic at a really slow speed. I rolled into her and a second or two later the airbag deployed. Updated 12/03/15”

“In my 2002 Dodge Grand Caravan. My airbag light would come on for two days. Then it would go off for three days. If I turn my wheels to the left it would come on then it would go off. When I took it to autozone to check out why that light was on he stated to take it to the dealership to have it checked. But it never came back on till a week later.”

“Air bag light stays on, when I use turn signal to turn left the right one comes on and vice versa, one head light will come on and after a while the other one will turn itself on, went out one night to eat and when entering the van with the automatic unlock key the security alarm went off nothing worked what we did so we had to unhook the battery for 20 mins. I was told that weird things happen when the clock spring goes bad. …”

“The van's airbag sensor light came on intermittently for a couple of weeks, then stayed lighted from then to date. Bought the vehicle used, so I don't know if this is the first time it has had this problem, but it has not been in any type of collision. I am concerned that my airbags will not deploy in the event of a crash.”

“At 42k miles, the airbag light kept turning on and off. The dealership said driver squib circuit open and charged me to replace the clockspring. Problem went away for a while. But now at 72k miles, the problem is back. Why aren't the 2002's covered in the recall? My symptoms are identical to that listed on the recall (which only covers up to 2000).”
