40 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2011 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 04/10/2019

Recently had airbag replaced per recall. About 2 weeks before, airbag light on console now comes on intermittently, usually at lower speeds. Will go off for brief period, then alarms and illuminates again. This began with around 149,500 miles. I am original purchaser. Airbag light was doing this at time of airbag replacement. I confirmed authorized repair dept. Was aware of this, and they confirmed. Informed me to schedule followup appointment for repair. Vehicle has been involved in no accidents. Upon personal review, it is my understanding this may be a clock spring issue, as buttons on steering wheel are non-operational, except cruise control and horn.

41 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2014 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 03/26/2019

I had a recall on passenger airbag and had it repaired at dealership. Since the repair, my airbag light comes on and they say I need a clockspring replaced. This did not happen until they replaced the passenger side air bag. Now they are saying I will have to pay over $800 to replace the clockspring. I only have 62,000 miles on the Jeep and it shouldn't need this. It seems to me that something happened when when they did the recall repair.

Failure Date: 08/04/2018

Takata recall, oil pump drive gear, pcm powerterrain control module I believe needs to be reprogrammed I have a failure of power while driving down the road like its getting to much or to little fuel and last week my oil pressure will not budge my gauges are slowly going out on my dash and the airbag light on dash blinks rapidly with the check gauges because of my old pressure I have taken it to multiple places to get it diagnosed and they say it is the oil pump drive gear and the pcm needing to be reprogrammed along with that being out of line my ground connections seem to be bad but I replace all of them from the battery to the engine block the dash and a couple more it has pressure but doesn't sound like it. All of this started happening at about 143,000 miles I have replaced multiple parts including the oil pump oil sensor all of the ground wires and terminals and checked as many relays as I can. Along with my dash when I had got it it had 130,000 miles on and the airbag light has always blinked and noticed a loss in power when I drive since I've had it, it runs through spark plugs and coils packs monthly and has since I've gotten it I drove it to georgia and back and it sounded like it was getting worse and just kept getting worse and worse until last week my oil pressure gauge says I have no pressure and the engine has oil pressure but you can tell it's going more and more out of line. I know when I look up my VIN number it says it's been updated since March 14, 2019 but when I log into another app it says I have recalls I don't know what to do or how to fix it but it definitely is the three recalls that was put on the 2005 Jeep Wrangler tj.

56 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2014 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 07/26/2018

After getting a fine dust within the cabin of the Jeep I had my airbag light come on. After doing research I saw there was a recall for this exact problem but I was informed that my Jeep was not in the recall list. I find this highly concerning as the safety recall s40 is exactly what happened to my Jeep when the airbag light came on. I would like this to be looked into as it is a major safety issue that the company already has placed a recall for Jeeps of my year of make.

59 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2011 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 06/19/2018

The clock spring on my Jeep appears to have failed. The airbag light on my Jeep is on. The dealership says as long as this light is on the airbags in my vehicle will not deploy as intended. I've researched this issue and Jeep (fca us) recalled a majority of Jeeps from �07-�12 for this issue. Additionally they issued an extended warranty for the clock spring for most Wranglers from �11-�16. My vehicle should fall within each. I'm being told by both fca us and the Jeep dealership that this issue is not covered on my Jeep. This seems wrong when the clock spring issue is a known defect that presents a serious safety concern.

The seatbelt/airbag light went on at 27000 miles. One dealer said it was the wiring under the seat and another said it was the seatbelt.

Failure Date: 01/21/2018

The air bag light on the dashboard just randomly alerts off and on and this was at the same time all the left side panels of the steering wheel stopped working including the horn. If someone is sitting in the passenger side front seat and their distribution of weight shifts the air bag passenger alert system let's you know it's not functioning properly. I was told the problem has something to do with a clockspring and it's air bag wiring under the passenger side front seat to the alert system. I saw on this site where it mentioned a clockspring problem. It does this whether stopped or going. This is continuously an issue now. Please advise how I need to proceed with the recall.

66 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2007 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/12/2017

Takada recall. I recently had my recalled defective takada air bag replaced under warranty at antwerpen Jeep in catonsville MD. After replacing the air bag, I was informed that the air bag light was still on in my vehicle. They told me they could diagnose the light for $135. 00. I refused to pay this because they had previously replaced the clock spring under warranty and I informed them of my air bag light problem then. They wanted to charge me $200. 00 at that time to diagnose the system that they had just worked on. I now feel that I cannot trust this dealership to work my vehicle for these safety issues. This Jeep has never been in an accident and only has 80,000 miles. Please help me resolve this problem I have had since I bought this Jeep new in December of 2006 from antwerpen Jeep of catonsville. Thank you.
