I am just wanting to inform you that approx. 3+ years ago I have been getting the airbag recall and also rec. The recall for the gas tank problem. When I finally was able to take the car in for the airbag recall (3 yrs later) they finally got the part at this time they advised me that I was also on the gas tank recall and said they would call me when the parts came in. I found out that the first airbag repair did not work and they were scheduling for the second repair. At the time I took my car in they not only didn't have the necessary parts to do the 2nd airbag repair but I asked them when the trailer hitches were going to be available for that repair and strangely my vehicle was no longer on that recall. Which made me very suspicious as to why I was for several years and then all of a sudden dropped. I figured they were redoing the recall list to make it less but my problem is that I need a safe car as I Transport my grandchild and 86 year old mother in my car. What kind of games are they playing? I would like assistant with getting the 2 recalls taken cared of or have the buy back option of the $1,000 over market value that I have read about so I can travel safely with my family in a safe car.

Our Jeep was recalled in Nov of 2012 for faulty airbags that could deploy and cause a crash without warning. We brought the vehicle right in for repairs and have since been driving it around with two children in it. We then received another recall notice in Jan 2015 stating that the original repair does not satisfactorily eliminate the potential for inadvertent deployments. We have since used the vehicle only when needed, but not with our children in the car, and have yet to be contacted to fix the problem that has the potential to cause a crash. We have contacted the dealer on several occasions only to be told that they do not have the parts to fix the problem, and have no idea when they will have the parts to fix the problem that can potentially cause a crash. Today when we contacted the dealer and said that we have barely driven the car in seven months and we need to know if the vehicle is at least "safe to drive", we were told that they don't know if it is safe to drive and they also still don't know when they will be able to fix the problem. At this point we will not drive the vehicle and want them to buy the vehicle back. I don't understand how they are allowed to issue a safety recall on a car with a potentially deadly problem, but then tell the consumer that they have to drive the car until they get the parts....updated 10-13-15

I received a recall notice from fca (Fiat Chrysler automobiles) in March, 2015 that that occupant restraint control module was defective and it needed to be repaired. As of today, July 2, 2015, the company still does not have the parts ready to remedy the defect. This is an unreasonable time delay to repair the safety defect.

The air bag light keeps going on and off. I have not found a pattern as to what causes this to happen. I am worried because I have seen other recalls on Jeep Grand Cherokee which caused the air bag to deploy for no reason.

I have yet to have my Jeep fixed with safety recall M35/NHTSA 12V-527. I have received letters about this problem and have answered Chrysler about this fix to no avail. I have received multiple letters for the recall, and I went to a local dealer and was told to wait for Chrysler to send me a letter to say the parts are available. I can't understand why it is taking months for this repair to take place. Please help me with this problem!

Chrysler has failed to correct the following recalls: M35/NHTSA 12V-527 since Feb 2014 we took it to Chrysler they said it was fixed and then we received additional documentation that the fix was not corrected due to parts being incompatible. We have not heard anything since March 2015. We called the local dealer and parts were not available yet.

I have a vehicle that is involved in a recall. I tried a year ago to get it fixed; there were no parts available. We were told we would be notified when parts came in. I just received another notice in the mail about the recall, and I am concerned for my family's safety. I need this fixed asap. I drive almost an hour both ways every day and of course my children are my first concern. I need this remedied asap, I can't believe there is a massive recall on something like this with no way to fix it. The problem has been around for quite some time, and nobody has parts. If the seatbelts malfunction, or the airbags deploy, a serious accident could occur. This is a serious safety concern, and the Jeep is the only vehicle I drive, so I do not have the luxury of waiting until parts become available. I've had to drive it.
