My airbag light came on a few weeks ago and hasn't stopped going on and off it makes that annoying sound the whole trip every time I drive, the heat won't cut on it blows cold air I've had it looked at and repaired allegedly but it still won't blow hot air, the car keeps stalling and it has completely shut off on me 3 times while I have been driving once on a busy freeway I was luckily by grace of god able to turn the wheel off to the side of the road before it locked I have a 2 year old daughter and I'm currently pregnant this is insane and nobody can tell me what's wrong with it or how to fix any of these problems I got a loan for this car so now I'm stuck with this death trap, and now I'm seeing all these complaints about the same thing I'm baffled by the neglect and lack of concern or care for customers and there families who ride in their vehicles safety, I would think it would be a no brainer to recall the whole car if you can't fix the safety concerns or don't have a solution, I need a car to drive I'm wasting so much money on rentals because I have no options with this Jeep I need a solution this is crazy I rely on my vehicle for work as I do uber eats and grub hub I need help!!

The tipm in my Jeep is messing up and causing engine stalling, radio failure, etc. I have a blue driver that constantly gives me codes related to this part defect. I've also got an airbag light coming on all the time and yet my VIN shows no recalls for this part. If I get into an accident my airbag might possible fail. My engine has almost stalled 3-4 times since I've owned it either from a stop light accelerating or crossing at an intersection this is very dangerous.

The air bag dash light has recently come on, after the mechanic tried unsuccessfully to reset it the same error message pops up. When the computer is connected it shows the only airbag affected is the one in the steering wheel. This vehicle has never been in a crash, much less anything to cause the airbag to deploy so it is the original. It stays on consistently anytime the key is in the on/started position

The contact owns a 2011 Jeep Liberty. While driving 35 mph, the contact became distracted and drove through a red light and crashed into another vehicle crossing an intersection. The air bags only deployed once the vehicle was fully stopped, not upon impact. The contact' son was admitted to the hospital for observation, but did not sustain any major injuries. The contact had a cut on her leg that did not require medical attention. The vehicle was towed to an independent tow yard. The vehicle was not totaled and was not diagnosed or repaired. Police report number: 192113977 was filed. There were no recalls on the vehicle. The manufacturer and dealer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 127,000.

Airbag light goes on intermittently on and off continually. It came on all of a sudden and has been doing this for quite some time now. I do not know how to get it to stop without going into the dealership and pay a $100 service fee to find out if there is a problem with the airbag or not. It continues as soon as the vehicle is turned on and while driving down the road. Every day all day until I return and park. I have tried to reset it by disconnecting the battery and letting it sit for an hour and reconnecting it but it will come right back on when we reconnect it and begin to drive again.

The check service engine light comes on because of the gas cap even if the gas cap has been replaced with a manufacture gas cap. The air bag light comes on and off for no reason.

Vechical was sitting but running. Person in driver and passanger. Started to leave and the airbag light on dash never turned off. Drove car next day, driver only, airbag warning light came on and off intermittently. Now a few days later the airbag light stays on a'll the time. Evidently the airbag will not deploy if accident occurs. Checked loose wires at recommendation of dealership and, nope none loose. Dealership said we can schedule appointment in a week and be several hundred to fix.

I was driving 45 in a 45 mph zone in the suburbs of mesa, AZ suddenly my Jeep Liberty pulled severely to right causing me to hit a 3 ft diameter poll. Air bag deployed as expected but the force of air bag blew a 8 inch hole in airbag and severely broke my chest cavity and abdomen causing spleen rupture and blood and toxins in my spinal fluid. My impression of airbags is to prevent injury not cause injury. Please investigate to prevent this from happening to other Jeep Liberty owners. Was in trauma medical center for 6 days and still home painfully healing. Steering and airbag may be defective. My Jeep was totaled. Have not received police or insurance report yet. Still waiting but needed to report hopefully to prevent others from possible injury
