| Description of the problem | While driving home today doing about 20 mph still accelerating my airbag light came on with a ding, stayed on for about 15 seconds turned off, then turned back on again with a ding then remained on. Upon looking up this problem i was told it is my clockspring and i also discovered that this is a recurring problem in all 2007-2011 jeep wranglers. So far jeep has only recalled clocksprings on government issue right hand drive train jeeps and put an extended warranties on the 2007 wranglers clocksprings. You'd think they'd want to keep the individuals voting in their government officials just as safe as the government workers themselves. When hundreds upon thousands of jeep owners reach out online to discover what their problem is and all come to the same conclusion and yet jeep refuses to see the safety issues in a malfunctioning piece of factory installed equipment that causes airbags to either deploy at random or not deploy at all in the event of a collision or accident. Jeep chrysler has truly turned into a malicious corporation more concerned with their bottom line than the lives of the people putting money in their pockets. This is unacceptable pure and simple, protect the people that keep you in business not just the government workers. |
