2 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 07/18/2022

The airbag clock spring fails. The horn will go off unexpectedly while driving and parked when the car is turned off this is causing drivers to look in panic and emergency causing distracted driving I took this to the dealer 2 years ago before someone posted this online what the issue was. They could not find the issue there are no lights or warnings that appear I know another person with a 2012 Jeep wrangler and that air bag clock spring was recalled.

3 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 11/08/2021

First the hood light came on-then the emergency brake light-then the air bag light-now my headlights wont go off. It was diagnosed as a faulty tipm. I'm concerned the air bags might be deployed creating a major safety issue I've heard there are numerous complaints on tipm's and that there may be a recall. Is that true?.

4 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 05/14/2021

Noticing a recall before, I'm concerned with my airbag light being on. Can it still be defected.

5 Air Bag problem

Failure Date: 03/01/2021

Sometimes when I turn my steering wheel the air bag light turns on. It does not always stay on and only comes on occasionally, usually when I make a turn. I got the diagnostics tan and the error code b1b02 driver airbag squib 1 circuit open. There was recently a couple of recalls (s61 occupant restraint controller and n01 reprogram occupant control restraint module) for my 2010 Jeep Patriot. I believe this issue with the error code I’m receiving is related to the recall issue, especially since the light does not stay on consistently.

Safty recall n01 / NHTSA 13v-233 and s61 / NHTSA 16v-668 I took my 2010 Jeep Patriot in for the above factory recalls on 11/21/2017 to young Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram of ionia in ionia, mi and was told that they didn't have the parts to fix this recall. I was told I would be contacted when parts were available but not offered a replacement vehicle until the repairs are made.

I was involved in an accident where I rear-ended another vehicle. I was going about 35 and my vehicle was imbedded in the bumper of the other vehicle. The tow truck had to pull the vehicles apart and there is about $7,500 in damage to my vehicle. I hit my knee on the dash and had bruising from the seat belt. My air bags didn't deploy which has me greatly concerned. I had someone that was highed by Chrysler to come out and inspect the vehicle. Chryler sent me a letter that due to the deceleration the air bags were not activated.
