3 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 12/30/2017

At the end of last year our 2014 Jeep Cherokee sport was involved in an accident on I-95 in connecticut. The repair shop did not do a thorough inspection of the vehicle. At the time I told them that the passenger air bags did not deploy and that there was an air bag malfunction light on. They did not inspect this system until I went to pick the car up and the airbag warning light came back on. I waited 3 days for repairs and they did not happen. So I drove the car back to florida and took it to a Jeep dealer here for the repairs. They have had my car since March and still cannot get the required repair parts from Chrysler. I am wondering if there is any way I can force them to come up with the parts and fix my vehicle. In the mean time I am paying car payments on a car that I can't drive. And a car that I had to purchase to replace the one I can't drive. The insurer will not let me have the vehicle back due to safety concerns about the airbag system.
