“Was involved in collision at 35-45 MPH where driver air bag did not deploy resulting in serious injury to driver. This vehicle was I'm forward motion on a rural street. We have not received any notices of airbag driver side recalls”

NHTSA complaint #11076113, filed 2018-03, 110,000 miles

“My air bag light kept coming on and turning off. Finally I had my Jeep looked at and I came back that the clockspring is bad. Its about $500 to have it fixed and I dont have the money. Also it had 60,000 mi on it at the time. I've been on Jeep forums and this is a continuing issue with jeeps. Why have the 08's been recalled for this problem and not the 07's? Can this be looked into please? I have called chrysler about this and they dont care I would really hate to get into a wreck seeing how I dont have airbags”

NHTSA complaint #10864050, filed 2016-05, 60,000 miles

“While turning into my driveway my 2007 Jeep wrangler x (with 55000 miles) chimed and the air-bag , traction control, and anti-lock brake warning lights lit up. Upon investigating the issue I found that this leaves the safety systems inactive! A bad clock spring in the steering wheel is he cause of all the system failures. My vehicle is no longer covered under warranty, but I feel that this should still be covered by Jeep/chrysler. This is a major safety concern or me and my family.”

NHTSA complaint #10409150, filed 2011-06, 55,000 miles

“On my 2007 Jeep wrangler my clockspring went out and posed a serious issue with my safety. With the clockspring out of commission my airbags would no longer deploy. When I went into my local dealer to have it fixed and asked if it would be covered under my extended warranty and the serviceman told me it wouldn't because he said it was a wiring program and that my warranty did not cover wires. I told him that the clockspring was a safety issue. The end result was that I had to pay $437.”

NHTSA complaint #10404036, filed 2011-06, 45,000 miles

“The airbag light on my 2007 Jeep wrangler constantly lights up and chimes about every 20-30 seconds. There wasn't an incident that caused this to start happening, it just started doing it one day. I believe the problem is a faulty clockspring in the steering column which, I also believe will prevent the driver airbag from deploying in the event of an accident. I have not done anything, as of yet, to get this repaired. I have been hoping there would be a recall to correct this problem seeing that many Jeep wrangler owners are experiencing the same safety issue.”
