Air Bag On-off Switch problems of the 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan

I purchased a 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan with approximately 60000 miles. The vehicle had one owner before me. At around 64,000 miles, my airbag light started coming on intermittently. It comes on and goes off when I hit bumps, apply brakes, or accelerate and sometimes when making turns. Also was the third owner of a 2002 model Chrysler town & country that had a similar problem do to a defective clock spring. Now have a 2014 Grand Caravan with way lower miles and this appears to be a common problem with Chrysler group. I attempted to contact the dealership I purchased the 2014 Grand Caravan from and told them the situation and they told me I was out of there 90 day warranty which led me into my extended warranty that I purchased for the vehicle which charges a deductible of $250. Don't know if this is due to a defective clock spring as this could be a different part failure. However checking the prices, a clock spring for a 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan just for parts cost around $300 plus tax. I am now stuck with a $15,000 vehicle that could kill me in the event of a crash due to a faulty airbag system that has a possibly failing part for the last 20 years made by Dodge and Chrysler group and has somehow never been recalled. The only recall that has been made with this van was the vent window switch which was replaced. Also got a letter in the mail regarding a warranty extension on a headrest restraint however this was not a recall. Based on a common problem with clock springs especially made by Dodge and Chrysler group I have reason to believe that Dodge has been making faulty clock springs from 2002 all the way up to 2014 and possibly still does as of 2021. I wonder how many Dodge Grand Caravans / Chrysler town & countrys over 60k-100k miles chances are your airbag light might be coming on and turning off while driving. Have to pay out-of-pocket. Problem may come back.

I flipped on my brights, while driving on back roads at night. The dash lights all lit up, the light brightness began blinking in and out, and even the radio switched off and on. When I turned the brights off, the airbag light stayed lit, then the stability assist light lit back up. I flipped the brights on again, with the same result as the first time.

I have since been made aware that the tipm is faulty. I had a problem with the airbag light at mile 172 when I first bought the vehicle new. At that time, I was told that the original tipm was faulty and it was replaced. 55000 miles on the vehicle, and we are working on tipm number three. Both of our tipm issues have involved airbag function, which makes this a dangerous problem.

After going sideways into a very steep ditch, both driver and passenger front side airbag charges went off, but neither airbag deployed. The seat belt locked so tight that I couldn't reach the door handle or window switch, or unbuckle the seat belt to exit the vehicle.
