| Description of the problem | On august 10th on a trip to tulsa while i had my cruise set on or about 70mph i received an airbag alert on my dash. Since that alert it has continued to alert approximately every 3-5 min while you drive. Today i was informed by my dealer that is was a faulty clock spring which may or may not cause the airbag not to deploy in the event of an accident and it may or may not deploy without provocation. Upon research this is a widespread issue with this particular model jeep and clearly is a safety hazard. There should be a forced safety recall on this part. |
