Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I received a safety recall notice in september 2016 but was told that nothing could be done because repair parts not available. Now, 8 months later, parts are still unavailable and I am driving a vehicle whose airbag and/or seat belts may not work in an accident, causing myself and my passengers serious injury. How can this possibly be permitted?”

NHTSA complaint #10980308, filed 2017-04, 6,000 miles

“The occupant restraint controller must be replaced.-I have not been notified to have this replaced on my vehicle yet!! I call Jeep and apparently the recall is incomplete?! How come Jeep is not taking care of this. I am concerned for those who ride in this car. What do I do? I was assured when I bought the Jeep ~1yr ago from the dealer that the recall would be handled within a few months.”

NHTSA complaint #11084596, filed 2018-04, 53,000 miles

“I have taken the Jeep back to the dealer 3 time to have the recall repaired. Each time I was told there is no salutation to the recall as of yet. I think they should replace this Jeep with an up graded Jeep as soon as possible or buy it back. The set belt become lock and chokes you going down the road and you have to release the belt and re set it so you are not being choked.”

NHTSA complaint #11006588, filed 2017-07, 37,600 miles

“This 2014 Jeep Patriot was involved in a crash with a deer and the air bags did not deploy. Recall s61/NHTSA 16v-668 dated 10/01/16 still has no solution for this problem. We also have a 2010 Jeep Patriot under this recall. Every time we drive either car it is in Jeep's hands. We need a solution!!!!!!!”

NHTSA complaint #10949582, filed 2017-02, 12,000 miles

“Received notice in september of 2016 that the occupant restraint controller was faulty and would result in a loss of airbag or seatbelt pretensioner in the event of a crash. I have contacted FCA through their website as well as called my local Jeep dealer (jim click auto mall) and are told only that there are no parts available. A year and no parts is not fixing a problem that could lead to death in a timely manner .”
