Description of the problem	A few weeks ago while making a left hand turn i heard a pop and then my airbag lamp (dash light) started coming on and dings when the car is started (very annoying)... I looked in the manual and it told me this meant there was a problem with the driver's air bag. I did searches on the internet and found that a lot of vehicles are being recalled for a know issue / recall for clock-spring assembly in the driver's airbag system that could cause it to malfunction and not deploy during a crash. I found a few sites that listed my make / model of jeep as one of the recalls ... But when i called the chrysler / jeep customer service & took it to the chrysler / jeep dealership to have it diagnosed- i was told my make / model was not included in the recall so i had to pay for it out of my own pocket ($499. 17 to be exact - see attached invoice). Talk about a shock - i would have never guessed that it would be this expensive - but to be protected and safe in my vehicle it had to be done. I am hoping to also voice my concerns & hopefully protect other people and possibly prevent deaths of innocent people that are not aware of the problem so they can get the defective airbag clock-spring assemblies replaced. I also requesting that this incident be reported, investigated and hope to be reimbursed for this expense i pray that someone else does not have to spend the time, money or worry that i've had to go through in order to get this issue fixed... Hopefully before it causes an injury or death!

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
