Description of the problem	My wife was leaving work, as she started to drive away in our jeep wrangler the airbag light came on and chimed. It has continued to do so, intermittently, ever since then. I was working out of town at the time when i received a call from her. She was concerned that the airbag may deploy unexpectedly or worse, not work if she were to get into a wreck. I was able to do a simple google search and find many jeep wrangler owners with the same issue, a faulty clock spring. From what i've seen, the 2007 jeep wranglers have an extended factory warranty to cover this issue. Unfortunately, for my wife and myself, we are not financially able to pay out of pocket for what i'm told is about a $500 repair for our 2008 wrangler. I am more then willing to repair or pay for repairs of items that wear out or need to be replaced while owning and maintaining a vehicle. However, replacing a clock spring to help maintain the functionality of my vehicles airbag system is not something that is commonly ever replaced. The amount of jeep wrangler owners that have come to the internet to voice their concern on the matter makes it apparent to me that this is either a sub-par part or design flaw and chrysler/jeep should be responsible for it.
