Air Bag Light On problems of the 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee

There is a problem which most everybody experiences on 1999 and up Jeep Grand Cherokees. The airbag light and chime continuously , randomly. This light and chime indicated the airbag is inoperative. This is typically due to a faulty unreliable designed "clockspring" in steering wheel under the airbag assy. This is very costly to fix and should definitely be recalled for repair no charge to customer. Please research and you will find that this is extremely wide spread. There is a fear that bag may deploy while driving due to short in system. This would be catastrophic. Please investigate ASAP, this is urgent.

This a is known (very common) problem on most Jeeps after a certain mileage. The air bag light and bell alarm constantly chime to let you know that the airbag is not active or inop, and wont work. There is a part in the steering wheel under air-bag called a "clock-spring" that goes bad on tens of thousands of Jeeps. They (Chrysler) know about it. It should be recalled,but they ignore the safety hazard and defective design. This needs to be recalled on all models affected not just one year (which I think is 2004).
