Took my Jeep into a dealership to fix my airbag. They fixed it and it was doing fine for about 2years and now th airbag light keeps on turning on and off I know there has been a recall on it. So would like to know what can I do about that. Thanks
I have a current recall for a defective airbag in my 2007 Jeep Wrangler. The airbag is currently not operational. Every 1-2 minutes while drive the airbag light will come on and ding. This is a serious safety issue and it makes the vehicle incredibly annoying to drive. A local repair shop diagnosed the error codes and they said the problem is related to the following recall and I should take it to a dealer to be fixed. Manufacturer recall number: S33 NHTSA recall number: 16V-290 I waited for the first available appointment and took my vehicle to autonation arapahoe Jeep in centennial, Colorado today. They said it will be a year and a half or more before the part is in stock. They will not be able to fix the issue until then. This is completely unacceptable to have the manufacturer acknowledge a defective airbag and I have to wait a year and a half to get it fixed. Sadly, I don't know what recourse I have to get it fixed. Aside from paying $500 out of pocket to have the local auto repair shop fix it. Which is what they quoted me for. And said they could the part in stock to repair in 2 days.
Unable to get vehicle in for airbag recall. Automation Chrysler Jeep just transferred me around and I gave up. Medved is more than 2 weeks out and you have to leave it all day. What is the point of a safety recall if the dealerships will not do it.
I have brought and called the dealer about the part they need to repair the air bag clock spring in my Jeep. They continually tell me that Fiat-Chrysler has not released the part. This recall has been going on for about 5 years now and they have not repaired it yet ! this is my second request for help the SRS system light starts to flash at times.

Takata recall. Received a notice for passenger airbag inflator that if deployed could result in serious injury or death. Called dealer to get repaired and was told parts were not available yet for that recall. Ten months went by with parts not available all the while putting me and my family at risk of serious injury or death.
Takada recall. I recently had my recalled defective takada air bag replaced under warranty at antwerpen Jeep in catonsville md. After replacing the air bag, I was informed that the air bag light was still on in my vehicle. They told me they could diagnose the light for $135. I refused to pay this because they had previously replaced the clock spring under warranty and I informed them of my air bag light problem then. They wanted to charge me $200 at that time to diagnose the system that they had just worked on. I now feel that I cannot trust this dealership to work my vehicle for these safety issues. This Jeep has never been in an accident and only has 80,000 miles. Please help me resolve this problem I have had since I bought this Jeep new in December of 2006 from antwerpen Jeep of catonsville. Thank you

Takata recall. Enough, it has been in excess of almost a year that the recall was first issued. Takata at this stage should replace my vehicle since the threat of using the vehicle with the recall is dangerous to any passenger. I am tired of having to use my other vehicles to as to avoid passengers in the front. Either replace the vehicle at no charge or issue a directive to have the airbag system removed in its entirety by a local dealer.

Takata recall: In July 2016 I received notice for driver and passenger air bag safety recall. At that time no replacement parts were available & I was told that availability was unknown at that time. In early December I was notified that parts were available but now for only one of the airbags and that was repaired. However, as to the 2nd airbag, again the parts are not available and there is no known date when the parts will be available. This is unacceptable. To be told that there is a defect and now waiting over 5 months for complete repair is not right and extremely disconcerting. Why may Jeep take so long to repair this dangerous problem?
Takata recall we received 2 recall notices for our son's 2007 Jeep Wrangler: S33/NHTSA 16V-290 airbag clockspring S43/NHTSA 16V-352 passenger airbag inflator for more than six months we have been trying to resolve this recall issue, but our dealership, southpoint Dodge/Jeep/Ram in austin Texas still does not have the recall replacement parts and we remain on the waiting list. We are very concerned because our son is a college student and travels between Texas and Louisiana frequently. Can you please tell us what the timeline is for getting these items taken care of?
