Received notice 11/8/12 that NHTSA campaign number 12V527000 was issued for a recall of 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee on which a component in the air bag control module may fail causing airbag deployment. Although we have received numerous notices, since January 2013 and as recently as January 2, 2014, from Chrysler corporation and both local Chrysler dealers, to alert us to this recall, upon attempting to schedule our Jeep for recall resolution our local dealers have been unable to schedule that resolution. Both dealers claim that no parts are available "yet" to service the recall. This claim as been stated by the dealers every four months since January 2013 and again as recently as January 4, 2014. It appears to me as a consumer that Chrysler has no intention of providing the means to resolve this recall.

Received a notice of recall (M35) letter from Chrysler around December 2012 after it was announced on the news in September of 2012. I brought my vehicle to the dealer and they verified that my vehicle is part of the recall. It is now December 2013 and the recall has not been resolved. I call the dealer and the dealer is still telling me they don't have the part to correct the recall. I'm now worried about the chance that I may be in an accident and there are no airbags or side curtain airbags to protect me and my family.

Grand Cherokee 6-cyl

  • 92,500 miles
I was driving home from a camping trip with my family on 9/2/13 on hwy 2 in laurel hill, fl, traveling approximately 50 mph on a two-lane road when the air bag light on the dashboard illuminated and shortly thereafter the driver-side airbag deployed. Nanoseconds later the passenger-side airbag deployed. I managed to keep from running off the road and pulled off onto the narrow shoulder. My wife's knee was hurt pretty badly as the dash opened up and hit her knee when the airbag deployed tearing the skin off her left knee and bruising both the knee and surrounding tissue and the inner portion of her right knee as well. Her injury did not require any hospitalization. I contacted Chrysler because I read online that there was a recall (M35) that affected my year model and make. They told me that my VIN was not included in the recall though our experience seemed to match up with the recall. The Jeep is currently at the dealership following an inspection and the case remains open.
