The contact-€™s wife owns a 2010 Jeep Liberty. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, his wife noticed that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the air bags needed to be replaced. The dealer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed of the cost to replace the air bags. The contact was informed to call the manufacturer for assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that he was not the original owner and the manufacturer denied repair. The failure mileage was approximately 152,000.
Airbag light goes on and off. Is not throwing a code on advanced scan tool. Also at times does not recognize the key has been removed from the ignition, and that appears to be a fault with the ignition key pin in the housing which Chrysler wants $1,000 or more to replace the ends tire steering column. What the hell do y'all guys even do because these problems exist all over the internet. Do y'all get kickbacks or make deals with the car companies because it seems not have to do anything with the safety of the equipment that is being sold.
Airbag light comes on and off sometimes they on I check they told me it's a clock spring the light is off in parking position but then when you turn the wheel in driving position it turns on and off
The airbag light keeps turning on and off while driving the vehicle. I heard Jeep have many problems with the airbags. I have also replace 5 water pumps on this vehicle paying for 2 of them the others were done under the tsb from Chrysler. I also have a problem with the heat coming out of the vents on the drivers side of the vehicle. I have heard of many Jeep with the same problem this started about 3 years ago

Takata recall - my vehicle is 8 years old. A lot of problems have started to happen two years ago which I have paid out of my pocket considering it as age maintenance. Two years ago I was not going to pay dealer $800 cost to fix my front door locks that don't go up or down. I just do it the old fashion way. Recently my passenger front door has added the problem of the window button not working, which is a possible life safety of a person who could be forced to escape that way. Takata recall - now!!! starting in mid April 2018 my dashboard dinged showing picture of what looks like driver airbag circle and driver in a seatbelt. It went away a minute later. It then started happening sparatically twice a week maybe. In May 2018, it became every drive off and on the airbag icon showed up and would ding about five times during the day drive staying lit at 2 minutes most approximately. Now June 2018, it has become an automatic of light dings on and then off several times during a drive that could range from 5minutes to 20 minutes. I started to observe that it happens when I turn the steering wheel only slightly right, but now the last week it has happened when steering wheel is turned slightly left or right. I am now truly in fear of my bag exploding while I drive and/or it will not go off to help my injury I'm involved in crash. I have read the htsa sight of recall and complaints and another owner's story is a match similar to mine....they are complaint NHTSA id number: 10986169. I have to go to the dealer this week for an appt for yet another problem with my vehicle and have to ask them to look at the airbag issue......I believe no matter what the manufacturers should pay for fixing any airbag problem a customer comes in with!!! it should not be put as a burden on the owner and a true hardship to me because I have to borrow money to fix possibly.
Takata recall: Not sure how long a occupancy restraint module should last, but I know mine apparently is 7 years with 77,300 miles on it. May 10th, 2017 I had been driving my car all day, we made a stop at kroger and when we got into the vehicle the airbag light came on. Nothing we could do that night, so we went to a birthday dinner and while driving there it stayed on. Came out after we were finished the light had turned off. I turned the vehicle on to leave work on Tuesday May 16, 2017 and the light had come on again. We called the service center to get it in and the service center had said the occupancy restraint module was faulty but they didn't understand why. After some research I found other Jeep models with the same defect and was recalled. Also, the same model but different years were recalled. The service center advised that it would be a possibility that if I crashed I could be ejected from the car, and the airbags may not deploy.
The contact owned a 2010 Jeep Liberty. While driving 30 mph, another vehicle crashed into the front driver side of the contact's vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained injuries to the left arm and multiple bruises that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed and towed to an auto body shop. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 60,000.
During rainy weather, driving the speed limit, the front passenger side tire felt that it was going unstable. Tried controlling the vehicle when it veered towards the right. Lost control of the vehicle and went into a ditch for a almost thirty feet. Was finally able to stop when crashed into a tre. Side airbags deployed but not the front air bag. Injuries to my head, neck and shoulder.

For no reason, the airbag warning light came on. Though there is warranty, they are telling us it isn't covered under warranty. I will never buy another Chrysler vehicle as long as I live. There have been other instances that should have been covered but we were lied to regarding the extended warranty coverage added...enough said.
