The contact owns a 2016 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that after stopping and attempting to make a left turn at approximately 5 mph, another vehicle crashed into passenger's side wheel and fender of the vehicle. The contact stated that the passenger's side wheel was pushed up into the wheel well. The contact stated that the vehicle was pushed laterally approximately 7-10 feet. The force of the impact went through the engine block and went out on the driver's side of the vehicle. Additionally, the windshield was cracked and hood clip on the driver's side was severed. The contact stated that the air bags failed to deploy. The contact assumed that the other vehicle was driving approximately 60 mph at the time of impact. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot but was not yet inspected. A police report was filed. The contact sustained injuries to the back and neck, and a minor laceration to the right leg. The contact was concerned that he might have also sustained possible brain and spinal cord injuries. The other driver sustained a laceration to the left leg below the knee and was transported from the scene by the paramedics. The contact stated that he chose not to leave with the paramedics because at the time he felt no pain however, later in the evening and throughout the night, he experienced excruciating pain. The next morning the contact went to the emergency room to seek medical attention. There were CT scans and x-rays performed on the contact. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 16v734000 (air bags) and stated that he had not received any information or notification from the manufacturer regarding the recall for which the VIN was included. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer were notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 90,000.

A car came into my son's lane. To avoid a head on collision, he veered right and went head on with a guardrail. Air bags did not deploy and the seatbelt did not lock. He was on hwy 1090. We find out tomorrow if the Jeep will be totaled because it has frame damage. The Jeep dealership that has the Jeep right now could not tell us why the air bags did not deploy and the seat belt did nothing lock.

My airbag light keeps coming on intermittently. Took it to a dealership and says the clock spring has gone bad. I see there is a recall for Jeep's that are right handed for this same issue. I also see on the forums and this website that it is happening to a lot of left handed Jeep Wranglers. I think the recall should be for both. This is a safety hazard as I learn my drivers side airbag will not deploy if I am in a wreck.

Recall # s40, NHTSA 16v-288 needs to be expanded!!! my clockspiring assembly is bad in my vehicle, and my airbag light is on. The dealership said if I get in an accident the air bag will not deploy. There is a recall out for certain 2016 rhd vehicles for the clock spring assembly. Certain vehicles manufactured between 2011 and may of 2016 fall into the recall. My vehicle was manufactured during that time, however for some reason my VIN number is not included in this recall-why? the same clock spring that was recalled in certain VIN numbers has gone bad in my vehicle also-which is a right hand drive. Speaking with chrystler directly about this they said there is nothing they can do because my VIN number is not included! this is not ok! it is an issue effecting air bad deployment! I am a rural mail carrier-and I am risking my life every day. If a vehicle rear ends me or hits me-my air bad will not deploy and that�'s my life! for chrystler to know about this issue in vehicles and not take care of it in mine is not ok! and I expect something to be done!.

I swerved to miss a deer. I ran off a big drop off&hit on mainly the driver's side. There was over $26k damage repairs done. They have decided to total my Jeep with a little over 36k miles. I ran off the raid&hit on mainly the driver's side. My air bags never deployed but most importantly my seat belt did not prevent me from hitting my face on the steering wheel. I have a gash above my right eye that the emts advised me to go to a hospital to have stitches. Butbwith the covid-19 epidemic fully in force I decided not to go to the next county for medical. Assitance since my local hospital is not equipped to preform the medical assistance that was needed. I missed several. Days of work for this incident. I'm asking for answers to why my air bags did not deploy but most importantly I'm wanting & needing to know why my seat belt did not prevent my face from hitting the steering wheel & also warping my steering wheel in the process. Please I need answers for I've always wanted & dreamed of owning a Jeep. Then I finally was able to purchase one but I need to know that it is also safe for me & my family.

Vehicle was involved in a very serious accident that resulted in the vehicle rolling 4 times. The airbags did not deploy on impact which resulted in the driver sustaining multiple broken bones in the face. Then, during the first roll, the driver was ejected due to a faulty seat belt latch which resulted in very serious critical injuries including a broken back. If these safety features would have worked, the driver would not be in the situation that she is in and suffering through lots of pain and life changing injuries.

All the electronics in my steering wheel went out, the horn stopped working, and my airbag no longer works. Some of my warning lights on the dash even stopped working. The fm/am radio also no longer works. I took it to the dealership and they said my clock springs went out. I am very worried about my airbag not deploying in a crash. None of these work, whether the car is moving or stationary.

Clockspring recall: other year models of the same generation Wrangler show a clockspring recall, but my year model doesn�t. My clockspring has failed now and I lost most of the steering wheel controls, including my safety horn, and if my research is correct, my driver side air bag will not deploy now if in a collision accident. When turning my windshield wipers would turn on randomly, and then when driving shortly afterwards I went to honk at animals in the road and the horn did not work. The next day I noticed that the radio and driver information center controls on the steering wheel did not work either.

I pulled into parking space, foot on brake,( zero speed naturally) as I started to move shifter from drive to park, the engine roared and Jeep accelerated up over curb and ~ 20ft till I hit the corner of the la fitness building ( my destination) all the time with my foot depressed very hard on the brake. Damaging front bumper, grill , headlight and windshield on left corner (driver side). I deployed all my strength to brake during event with no effect, turned off car, and put it in park. Air bag did not deploy. 1-10-2019 at ~ 8:45am. Carrolton texas (75007 ) police report # 2019008855, officer elmore # 680 filed on 1-10-2019. I called huffines Jeep dealership to inquire if issues with sudden acceleration had been reported (officer reccomend I check before I drive to their repair shop) bob in customer service said he did not know of any issues or recalls. So I slowly drove with warning light active at ~ 20 mph to shop to start repairs (geico ins. Claim # 0529467460101044 ).

Airbag light came on, took to dealer they said clockspring clogged which shuts down airbag functionality, need to replace clockspring. Checked web, found that Chrysler recalled all Jeeps year 2007 thru 2011(393,000) for design defect of clockspring stating it can get clogged resulting in inoperable airbag like my son experienced. Then noticed they recalled 2011 thru 2016 right hand drive for same defect. I asked if our clockspring was same design which response was yes so I asked why ours wasn't recalled and covered by Chrysler and response was it wasn't. If product is same for all those years it should be recalled because accident will happen and someone will get seriously hurt if airbags do not deploy. Clockspring is same design in my son's Jeep as all the others that were recalled.

Air bag warning light is on and other functions on steering wheel stopped working . Dealership mechanic says ongoing problem with Jeeps. Says drive very carfully because air bag will not deploy when light is on. Clock spring has been recalled on many Jeep Wranglers. Thank you.

Received several recall letters from fca. Finally called the dealer to schedule what you say is a 2 hour repair. First problem, they say they have not received any parts to effect a repair on any of the effected vehicles . That has been over one year. Now that you are sending out the notices for a year, my wife is concerned that if she were to be involved in an accident, the air bags may not deploy as designed. There has to be some kind of time frame for the manufacturer to make needed repairs or what good is your department?.
