| Description of the problem | The air bag clockspring in my 2008 rhd jeep wrangler has failed and been replaced twice at my expense. The first was 09/13/10 @ 39693 miles and again 12/15/11 @ 69120 miles. I found on your site that there was a recall in progress, l37 for 2008 - 2012 rhd jeep wranglers. I called chrysler and was told my vin was not covered under this recall. My concern is: how many other rhd jeep wranglers are there out there that have or may experience the same problem but are not included in the recall? It appears obvious that the recall should be expanded. I have receipts for these repairs if needed and feel free to contact me for more info. |
