 Description of the problemOne day after leaving my 9 hour shift at work, i walked up to my jeep and could see that the driver side airbag had deployed at some point during the day. Not knowing much about airbags i walked around the jeep to see if it been hit, no damage of any kind. I've since learned that airbags don't deploy on parked vehicles unless they are running. I called the dealership where i originally purchased (new) my jeep. They told me to have it towed to the shop and they would investigate. After asking me if the vehicle had been hit, they said maybe a rabbit or some other rodent ate through some wiring. Their investigation did not uncover anything (no wiring issue, no codes, nothing) and they wanted to call in chrysler engineering and possibly an inspector due to their access to additional diagnostic capabilities. After i asked for a loaner vehicle since this was now going to take several days, they called me back and said they had permission to replace the "now deemed defective airbag". The 2014 model year was not included in any of the takata recalls, nor was the issue similar to the takata recall or the coil spring recall. Thank god i wasn't going 75 down the highway when the airbag decided to spontaneously deploy. Its going to take a while to get over the fear of driving this vehicle after the airbag is replaced and this possibly happening again since they can't explain what happened. 2014 wrangler unlimited rubicon 25,620 miles vehicle was stationary (parked) not running for the previous 9 hours at a secure facility with 24 hour video monitoring.
