Seat Belt Problems of Jeep Patriot - part 2

Leslie, a service advisor at absher arnold motors located in marion, illinois refused to perform a safety recall repair on my 2014 Jeep Patriot. She stated they could not get the part and that the part was being �rationed out. � this went on over a period of about three weeks. Upon contacting another area dealership (weeks in west frankfort) they had the part in two days and performed the recall repair the next day. I feel this matter should be looked into so that others aren't provided with this type of service and false information. Thank you.

I received this recall notice in late oct/Nov 2016. The day I received it, I called the number listed and was put on a waiting list to let me know when the part was available. I received another recall notice the week of 8/21/17 for the exact same reason. I called my Jeep dealership and told them about the recall notice a scheduled an appointment. This morning I go to drop off my Jeep and they tell me that they do not have the part and that they would put me on a list. This recall is just shy of a year old now. I feel that this should have been fixed by now. No one has ever called me about this part becoming available.

I was informed of this recall via us mail nearly a year ago in September of 2016. As of today, July 30, 2017, the NHTSA website still lists this recall as "no repair or resolution available. " this is unacceptable. Chrysler / Jeep must offer a repair to this critical safety recall issue ASAP.

There is recall to replace the occupant restrain controller on my car however when I call the dealer to schedule an appointment and get it replaced I was told that Chrysler has put a hold on the measure as a solution because replacing the part may do more damage than it already does and that for now they were just taking names down and will call back once the company has a better solution. I however have noticed that sometimes that pressure to hold the seat belt in does not stay and tensioner opens randomly.

Safety recall issued September 13, 2016 (fca recall #s61 | NHTSA recall #16v-668). As of July 27, 2017 there is no fix available.

I am making a compliant to your company about my airbags and seat belt pretension. I received a recall notice in July 2017 and went online to find out how and where to get the recall issue handled. While online I was informed that the parts needed to correct my seatbelt and airbag problem was not in. I applied to receive an email to inform me of when the part(s) needed to correct this issue would be in. I was given a reference number since 7/24/17 and I have not received anything on getting my car repaired. I drive this car daily and would like to know when it will be repaired. My feelings of safety or constantly been tested as I have to travel daily and this is my source of transportation. I feel that 6 months has been long enough to wait for something to be done. Your company has not addressed this issue in a timely manner and no updates have been emailed or sent to me. I believe that for some reason I have been overlooked. I am still awaiting the parts needed with a list of available dates to get serviced in my community. Very disappointed in how this situation has been handled. I have not been in an accident or had any serious issues with my vehicle. I am making this complaint because I feel that you as a company has neglected to fulfill your duty and provide me with the safety measures deserving of a consumer.

I have taken the Jeep back to the dealer 3 time to have the recall repaired. Each time I was told there is no salutation to the recall as of yet. I think they should replace this Jeep with an up graded Jeep as soon as possible or buy it back. The set belt become lock and chokes you going down the road and you have to release the belt and re set it so you are not being choked.

They randomly unbuckle! you think you're buckled and you move or adjust while driving then then bam unbuckled. You're going to die in a head on collision.

Received a recall notice about faulty airbag/seatbelt pretensioner. Dealership says they have no fix yet but it's a big deal to me because this affects safety devices and potentially my family's safety. I had to hard brake the other day and my son's seat belt didn't lock and he fell over in his booster seat.

I was already contacted by Chrysler and they assured me the parts would be available by June but that has already passed. One way or another I should not have to drive a car, potentially, with faulty airbags or seatbelts for a year.

In September of 2016 Jeep discovered a serious, possibly fatal risk potential associated with a sensor involved in restraining seat belts and deploying air bags "under certain impact conditions". As an owner, I was not apprised of this risk until June 20, 2017. Then, when I inquired about the availability of a repair to correct this lemon I was "informed", "advised" there was no repair available and such repair(s) may not be available for six months. I was given a vague estimate, and vague "assurance" I would be apprised of repair availability when ready. I asked, "should I bee driving this flaw?" they had no specific guidance. Seriously? accordinfly, I am invoking "lemon law" and demanding full liquidation of my existing auto loan at Jeep's expense. If they do not oblige, I shall seek civil suit damages by jury trial for added emotional pain and suffering coupled with their failure to fully-disclose potential fatal flaw for over six months to Jeep owners. I expect the NHTSA to manage this claim. Period. What a mess. What country is this? is anyone watching and protecting consumers? I expect the NHTSA to force Jeep to immediately undertake a full buyback program no later than July 1, 2017. Period.

Important safety recall s61/NHTSA 16v-668 notice was received from fca on 11/15/2016. As of 6/16/2017, the recall status incomplete but repair parts are not available. It does not seem reasonable that an important safety defect has gone so long without a fix by the company. The description of the risk safety defect/non compliance description and safety risk: the vehicles may experience loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability in certain crash events due to a shorting condition resulting in a negative voltage transient that travels to the occupant restraint controller via the front impact sensor wires. The potential loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability in such crash events may increase the risk of injury in a crash. Repair description: the occupant restraint controller must be replaced. Fca needs to either provide fixes very soon, or replace the vehicles.

I called my dealership to have an unrelated issue looked at and was notified about the possible failure of my seat belts and air bags. I have not received any other notification about this matter. I was told the parts for the recall may not be available until June/July of this year. I will risk the safety of myself and my family, including a teen driver, if I continue to operate this car before the repair can be made.
