Description of the problem	While driving, and without incident, my airbag indicator light came on and began dinging. It would cut off, then begin come on again with any turn or slight bump... So basically, my jeep is dinging at me every 30 seconds or so. I contacted my local dealer and was told there were no recalls on my jeep. I took it to my local shop (grayson tire and auto) for tire rotation and oil change. They ran diagnostic and found the fault was with the clock spring and advised me that it should be a warranty item. I did some online research and found that there is a recall for the clock spring (l37/nhtsa11v-528) for 2008-2012 right hand drive models, and that a similar recall for the 2007 models had been extended to include the left hand drive models and the warranty on the clock spring had been extended to 10 years, 150,000 miles. Looking at blogs on the internet, there is obviously a problem with the clock spring with jeep vehicles. I even found some documentation that of the 181 complaints that were filed for the initial recall, 82 were in rhd's... So 99 were in lhd's...
