Chrysler's number for this recall is R06. We have been waiting 2 years for the dealership where we bought our vehicle to get the parts in to satisfy the recall notice we received. Now we received a second recall they state over-rides the first which still has not been done. The dealership says we now are in limbo- waiting on a letter from Chrysler about the recall. They state they do not have the first part to repair our Jeep, and will not repair it until they get the new part.

According to Chrysler Jeep safety recall M35 / NHTSA 12V-527 (the updated version that includes the 2002-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles instead of the original which only included 2002-2003 Jeep Liberty vehicles): "the airbag system occupant restraint control (orc) module on your vehicle (VIN: Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) may experience a front airbag and/or seat belt pretensioner inadvertent deployment. An inadvertent deployment while driving could distract the driver and cause a crash without warning." (distract" seriously? that's how a random airbag deployment is described??") "Chrysler will repair your vehicle free of charge (parts and labor)... simply contact your Chrysler, Jeep, or Dodge dealer right away to schedule a service appointment..." we tried to schedule this "right away" with our Dodge dealer. We were told the parts were on back order. In February 2013 we were told the same thing. In April we were told there is a one year waiting list for this defect to be repaired as Chrysler is unable to obtain the parts (the dealership words, not mine). This I find hard to believe. What is the NHTSA going to do about this? thank you.
