1 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 06/06/2019

I have a 2012 Jeep Wrangler I bought in August 2018. This June my air bag light came on and dings every once in a while. I had it looked at by my mechanic and they found that the clockspring needs replaced. I looked at all recalls, I noticed thru the NHTSA the recalls listed are for only right hand drive 2012 Jeeps. Why would it matter right or left hand drive?? they use the same parts. So my question is, is this recall good for my Jeep?? as of right now I have no air bag protection. I did however have the takata air bag inflator recall done. I think this is a big problem for Jeeps of all years. I think this should be on the recall list as all not worded as right hand drive Jeeps.

Takata recall . I went into my authorized Jeep dealer . Prestige Jeep on centennial pkwy , las vegas , nevada for the recall of passenger airbag inflator. Was told by receptionist in service that they could not order parts because of expense and would have to wait possibly months because they could only order 1 part at a time. Meanwhile I cannot drive car because of dangerous safety concerns.
