Many times it is almost impossible to unlatch either the passenger or driver seat belt without much tugging and pulling. In an emergency situation, this could be catastrophic. My dealer has no recommendation. When I turn my steering wheel, usually to the right, the air bag notification signal will come on, indicating the air bag is not inflated properly. This seems to me to be a safety issue, but the dealer says there is no recall and has quoted me about $1000 to repair this situation. I am the original owner, and the car has never been in an accident where the air bag was deployed. I have checked online and many others have this same problem with their 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokees.
Rear passenger tail light does not work at night or rather when the car lights are turned on. Mechanic has replaced bulb, re-bent the connection, but the light still is not visible when lights are turned on. When lights are out, brake light, reverse light and turn signal work. My son has been pulled over by police thinking the lights had been fixed. Its only a matter of time before he receives a ticket. Our mechanic has offered to try and fix it without replacing both back light assemblies.
Airbag clock spring failed.
