Description of the problem	I just turned my car on that morning and my air bag light came on. I took my vehicle to pep boys and they looked up any recalls for my air bags. They found a recall for the air bag clockspring. I then took my wrangler to the chrysler jeep dealership and told them about the recall and my airbag light. They said that my vehicle wasn't on the recall list so it wasn't considered affected. So i paid them to do a diagnostics to figure out what the problem was and they told me it was the clockspring and it needed to be replaced. Despite it being the exact same problem other wranglers were recalled for, they said that they wouldn't cover the repairs and i would have to pay over $600 dollars for them to replace it. My car had less than 65,000 miles on it when this problem occurred. I have looked online and this is a problem that many 2008 and later wranglers have been experiencing. This is a very serious safety concern and there should be a recall to have this fixed.
