Tl the contact owns a 2008 Jeep Liberty. The contact stated that the vehicle was taken to szott m-59 Chrysler Jeep (6700 highland rd, white lake charter township, mi 48383) for routine vehicle maintenance. Upon return of the vehicle, the air bag warning light flashed intermittently. The contact returned the vehicle to the same dealer to be diagnosed.

Air bag warning light on dash,took to larry miller avondale to have it diagnosed as to what is cause,was told drivers airbag needs replaced,have called and tried to submit a claim with Chrysler customer service 800-992-1997. I have a reference #,was told I'd have to pay $1300. Out of pocket cause theres not a recall pending on my vehicle. . But it's an airbag issue. . Had to wait 2 weeks to get into dealership with a appointment. .
Inoperative speed control and sudden loss of instrument cluster lights/speedometer at high speed. Code read out performed. Indicated wheel sensor not communicating with control module. Had it replaced twice. Problem is not with the sensor. The control module for panel displays shuts down. Alll warning lights on dash display come on indicating abs disabled, brake/engine failure. Also,speed cruise control lost plus speedometer drops/ freezes at zero.
Airbag warning light goes on and off intermittently after car is started. Spoke to Chrysler/Jeep after consultation with local mechanic who identified the issue as a defective clock spring. This same issue was addressed with Chrysler/Jeep with Jeep wrangler 2008 - 2010 which uses the same clock spring (reference : nvs-212pcor;pe11-019-August 5-2011) resulting in extension of warranty to 3 years or 150,000 miles. Jeep requests a fee of 500. 00 + dollars to repair this issue stating there is no extended warranty on Jeep Liberty 2008 even though the same part is being used in each vehicle nor will Jeep diagnose the issue unless guarantee diagnostic fee of 120. 00 dollars. Please advise.
Airbag warning light stayed illuminated. This is the same incident reported in the 2012 Jeep Liberty which is being investigated. Dealer said it "might " be harness but based on latest report read on the internet it appears to be the same. Remedy the issue by having the controller replaced. I have not done this yet.
