| Description of the problem | Clockspring recall. I own a 2007 jeep wrangler v6 automatic with 86000 miles. Around april 25th 2015 i noticed the airbag dash light would light up and ding every few minutes. After doing some research i found this to be a very common occurrence with this model jeep. I took my jeep to my local dealership last week for its regular maintenance and the service manager called stating the clockspring was in need of replacement. I asked him if the jeep was covered under the recent recall and he said he "couldn't find anything about it in his system". I explained what i had read online about all the complaints and to the best of my knowledge there is a recall for the clockspring replacement. He told me the only way the dealership would fix it without charging me $700 is if i had proof of the recall. Aside from this problem being annoying , i'm concerned about the safety while driving the vehicle and if the airbag would properly function if myself or my wife were in an accident. Any help with this matter is greatly appreciated. |
