| Description of the problem | Recall # s40, nhtsa 16v-288 needs to be expanded!!! My clockspiring assembly is bad in my vehicle, and my airbag light is on. The dealership said if i get in an accident the air bag will not deploy. There is a recall out for certain 2016 rhd vehicles for the clock spring assembly. Certain vehicles manufactured between 2011 and may of 2016 fall into the recall. My vehicle was manufactured during that time, however for some reason my vin number is not included in this recall-why? The same clock spring that was recalled in certain vin numbers has gone bad in my vehicle also-which is a right hand drive. Speaking with chrystler directly about this they said there is nothing they can do because my vin number is not included! This is not ok! It is an issue effecting air bad deployment! I am a rural mail carrier-and i am risking my life every day. If a vehicle rear ends me or hits me-my air bad will not deploy and that |
