Grand Cherokee

  • 21,600 miles
I had driven approximately 520 miles enroute to my vacation home and was driving with the cruise control activated and seatbelts were in use by both myself and passenger. Suddenly and at the same time the seatbelt and airbag warning lights came on and within a few seconds the cruise control disengaged and the message "acc/fcw unavailable service required" popped up on the dashboard. For the duration of my vacation the vehicle was operational however I had no cruise control. Contacted two Jeep dealers in the area and they were too booked up to service my vehicle. Upon my return home I took it in to my Jeep dealer. Here is the exact quote from their service invoice as to what was discovered: "found many modules with loss of communications with the orc module (airbag module) with codes in them. Found orc to have an internal fault, replaced and set up orc module".

Grand Cherokee 6-cyl

  • 35,000 miles
I was driving the vehicle and suddenly the car told me to service the air bag system. I drove to the dealer the next day and was told that the vehicle requires a new occupant restraint control module. I have been waiting since mid-June for this part to arrive. I have also learned that the airbags will fail in a collision. This is a serious safety concern for everyone, not just me.
