2 recalls have not been taken care of by the manufacturer. I purchased this vehicle 2 years ago and have noticed that the seats do indeed over heat. The airbags haven't deployed thankfully, but I'm not comfortable taking any chances. Do I have to pay a dealer to complete these repairs? also, since I have had this vehicle, my blinkers and brake lights do not work consistently. They were in operable for almost a month. I had a mechanix check them, and they said they were dine. Homer's auto shop florence oregon) I didn't drive at night for almost a month. Then my blinkers just started working again. All the fuses are fine, and no other electrical issues. Brake lights started working also. Up until 3 days ago, a driver behind me pulled around next to me at the stop light to tell me the brake light was out. I checked it when I got home and it was fine.
While driving at low speed, the side curtain airbags deployed along with the front seat belts. No injuries just stunted by the loud bang. I took car to Jeep dealership to have recall r06/15v-046 repaired and to diagnose cause of side curtain airbags deployment. Dealer would not repair recall r06/15v-046 due to the requirement that the side curtain and seat belts be repaired before making the recall repairs. Side curtain airbags repair was not accomplished because some repair parts are no longer available (seatbelts/headliner). Dealer indicated that, even if they could have repaired side curtain airbags that the cost of the side curtain airbags repair would be on me. Dealer charged me for a diagnostic of side curtain airbags deployment. I feel that the manufacturer is responsible for the defects and are responsible for restitution. Subject car has airbags light on know but not beforehand. What is my recourse now that my car is unsafe with no repair available and of little value?.
Airbag light has stayed on even after a battery replacement. Check engine light now stays on for no apparent reason. That’s all,thanks.

On Friday October 9,2020 approx. 5:56 pm I was coming out of acme parking lot, stationary at traffic light awaiting a green light . All car windows were up, ac on. Next thing I knew I heard a "ding" and before I knew it, both air bags deployed , shattering passenger glove box apart, sending debris and plastic in my face. Driver steering wheel destroyed. Entire vehicle filled with "fire like smell" from dual air bag deploying. No injuries to myself, no one else in vehicle with me at time of incident. No accident of any kind had occurred that would explain dual air bag deployment without any impact to vehicle. I can provide photos upon request. This is definitely a manufacturing defect.

I have received many recall notices about the occupant restraint control module for my vehicle. I have taken my car to the nearest Jeep dealership to get it serviced. Each time they say that they do not have the parts to fix this recall. I do see the need to inform me of the recall if the dealership is not taking the recall seriously and are making little no efforts to complete it.
