5 Air Bag problem of the 2008 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 07/14/2026

"on March 4, 2022, customer satisfaction notification s33 (airbag clockspring recall remedy) was performed on my 2008 Jeep Wrangler by an authorized dealer at 123,314 miles. The vehicle now has 137, 347 miles. The replacement clockspring provided as the official safety remedy has completely failed after only roughly 15,000 miles of driving, illuminating the srs airbag warning light and completely disabling the supplemental restraint system. The manufacturer's mandated remedy has failed to permanently correct the safety defect, creating a recurring hazard. " tom o'brian dealership and stellanis have both refused to repair clockspring which is either defective repair item. "stellantis corporate directed me to speak with you directly regarding a safety component failure. Tom o’brien Jeep performed the s33 clockspring campaign on my Wrangler at 123,314 miles. The vehicle only has about 138,000 miles on it now. This critical airbag safety component failed after just 15,000 miles of driving. Corporate told me that if you submit a digital goodwill claim through the dealer portal for an internal part failure on a safety campaign, they can review it for approval. Because this disables my entire airbag system after only 15,000 miles, I am asking you to submit that goodwill request so stellantis can cover the replacement. " ," no federal safety regulator or corporate executive expects a vital component of a vehicle's supplemental restraint/airbag system to fail after just 15,000 miles. This extremely low mileage proves one of two things: either the replacement remedy part was defective out of the box, or the "dust shroud" modification required by the s33 campaign was not installed correctly, allowing the new clockspring to fail prematurely.

7 Air Bag problem of the 2010 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 06/10/2026

Most of the dash lights are on scan code u1412. Says traction control not working, abs not working, speedometer not working, and airbags not working. The power control module (pcm) needs replaced. A known issue with the Jeep Wrangler jks. No one stocks the parts and used ones are way over priced. How can Jeep not have to replace it or at least stock a replacement part that has the issues resolved?.

9 Air Bag problem of the 2013 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 06/04/2026

2013 Jeep Wrangler, which is currently subject to a manufacturer-issued “do not drive” safety recall involving the driver’s airbag. Upon learning of the recall, I immediately acted responsibly by delivering my vehicle to romano Chrysler Jeep in fayetteville, new york, so the required safety repair could be completed. My Jeep has now been at the dealership for more than six weeks because the replacement airbag remains on backorder. During this time, I have repeatedly requested updates and asked whether a loaner or rental vehicle could be provided. Despite the fact that stellantis has instructed owners not to drive affected vehicles, I have been informed that no transportation assistance will be provided. Compounding the problem, my new york state inspection expired while the Jeep has been sitting at the dealership. I attempted to have the vehicle inspected before bringing it in, but was advised that it could not legally be inspected until the safety recall had been completed. As a result, I have been left without a usable vehicle through no fault of my own. I fully understand that supply chain delays and backordered parts can occur. However, I do not believe it is reasonable or fair for a consumer to bear the financial and personal burden of a manufacturer-issued do not drive recall while the required repair cannot be completed. As a long-time automotive owner, taxpayer, and consumer, I believe manufacturers should stand behind their products when a federally mandated safety recall removes a customer’s ability to safely operate their vehicle. I respectfully request the following: immediate authorization for a loaner or rental vehicle at stellantis’ expense until my Jeep is repaired. Expedited shipment of the required replacement airbag, if possible. Written confirmation of stellantis’ position regarding transportation assistance during this prolonged recall delay.

10 Air Bag problem of the 2022 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 05/23/2026

While vehicle is driving multiple dash alarms will start cycling through including stop/start, service electronic stability control, speed control messaging unavailable, service airbag system, service 4wd, engine light and abs light, anti skid lights all come on, the speedometer goes to zero, and the power steering goes out. Driving highway speeds and suddenly having no power steering is a safety issue as well as being unsure if airbags etc are even functioning any longer. The problem has happened multiple times. The vehicle was inspected by a Jeep dealership as well as another shop in town and the codes were reproduced. They were unable to fix the issue and despite testing a "star connector" and finding it in good condition and unable to reproduce the issues were advised to replace that part anyway and see if they could reproduce the problem again at my expense. During this time the recall for 2022 Jeep Wranglers with NHTSA campaign number 26v363 came out and I requested to wait for further repair work to be done until the recall was repaired as it also relates to the power steering. I saw a fix had been published and return to the dealership to have the recall repair performed and was told that upon further inspection of the recalled part, mine passed the test, which was apparently a wiggle the wire and inspect the harness for ware only and my vehicle is no longer listed on the recall. I feel these things may still be related and I am extremely frustrated that I have a 4 year old vehicle that I am making payments on and paying insurance on that has been parked (not in my garage as it was a fire risk in the recall) and I don't feel its safe to drive and don't feel that Jeep or the local dealership are being honorable with their product.

13 Air Bag problem of the 2013 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 04/13/2026

I purchased a 2013 Jeep Wrangler unlimited sahara (VIN [xxx] ) from soliman motors inc. , [xxx] (phone [xxx] ) on April 11, 2026. The vehicle is subject to active NHTSA stop-drive recall #19v-018 for the takata passenger airbag inflator, issued January 15, 2019. This recall was not disclosed to me at any point before, during, or after the purchase. I was never informed of this active federal stop-drive safety recall by the dealer. I discovered the recall independently after purchase through the Jeep manufacturer app. Upon discovery I immediately contacted an authorized Jeep dealership to schedule the recall repair. I was informed that recall parts are on nationwide backorder with no confirmed availability date. I am currently on a waiting list at an authorized Jeep dealership. This recall has been open and unrepaired for over seven years since its issuance on January 15, 2019. The dealer sold this vehicle to me without disclosing the existence of this active stop-drive safety recall. The recall involves a takata passenger airbag inflator that can rupture upon deployment, sending metal shrapnel toward vehicle occupants — a known life-threatening defect responsible for deaths and serious injuries worldwide. I have been driving this vehicle without any knowledge of this life-threatening safety defect from the date of purchase until I independently discovered the recall. The dealer’s failure to disclose this recall at the point of sale put my life and the lives of my passengers at serious risk. Additionally, the financing for this transaction was cancelled by the lender, thrift investment corporation, because the dealer sold this vehicle to a buyer without a valid driver’s license — confirming the dealer failed to conduct basic due diligence before completing this sale. I am requesting: 1. Investigation of soliman motors inc. For failure to disclose active stop-drive recall #19v-018 at point of sale 2. Review of whether solim information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

14 Air Bag problem of the 2012 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 04/11/2026

What happened? the vehicle was delivered to an authorized dealership for a federally mandated "stop-drive" safety recall (v01 - passenger airbag inflator). During this service visit, the dealership attempted to charge an illegal $275. 00 diagnostic fee for the airbag warning light, which is directly related to the recall system.   the manufacturer’s corporate office confirmed via email that as of April 23, 2026, the recall remains "open" and incomplete in federal records. However, the manufacturer also issued a contradictory statement claiming the repair was "concluded" based on dealer reports.   most critically, while in the dealer's custody for this safety repair, the vehicle was lost or released to an unauthorized party. A manufacturer-arranged "reunite" transport service arrived on-site to return the vehicle, but the dealership could not produce it, claiming it was no longer on the lot. The dealer has failed to provide any signature, identification, or surveillance footage to prove a legal release of this "stop-drive" recall vehicle. The supplemental restraint system (srs/airbag). The system is not available for inspection because the dealership lost the vehicle while the recall was still marked as "open" and incomplete.   how was safety put at risk? the vehicle is under a "stop-drive" advisory because the airbag inflator may explode, resulting in serious injury or death. By failing to perform the repair, attempting to charge for diagnosis, and losing the vehicle, the dealer and manufacturer have left a high-risk safety defect unaddressed and the vehicle's location unknown.   has the problem been confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? yes. The manufacturer’s own database and the NHTSA/mopar websites confirm the recall is "incomplete/open". Furthermore, a third-party towing company confirmed the dealership could not locate the VIN on their lot during a scheduled pickup.  .

15 Air Bag problem of the 2012 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 04/06/2026

This is 2012 Jeep Wrangler its 14 years old and for 14 years the previous owner renewed the registration put insurance on it and it passed the emission tests despite the fact that it was recalled. Now the parts were in back order and they replaced my airbags but when the tow company went to the dealership to pick up my car the dealership wouldn’t release it this is absurd how does a 14 year old car go unnoticed that long. I had to stop driving the car for months because of this recall and the battery died you know a car can’t stay parked too long I took this recall seriously unlike stellanis who murdered 29 people by refusing to flag these VIN numbers to the dmv like the Jeep I had and it’s sick how your agency has enabled this behavior truly sick.

18 Air Bag problem of the 2018 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 03/02/2026

I own a 2018 Jeep Wrangler. The vehicle has a serious safety issue where the steering wheel shakes violently at freeway speeds, especially when driving over uneven roads or bumps. This makes the vehicle feel unsafe to operate. This issue was previously repaired under warranty with a steering damper replacement. However, the same problem has returned, indicating that the issue was not properly resolved. The dealership has recently verified the issue through a road test and confirmed the violent shaking condition. In addition, the vehicle currently has an active airbag warning light, and the dealership diagnosed a failed front right acceleration sensor. This raises concerns about the proper function of the airbag system in the event of a crash. I have contacted the manufacturer multiple times, but they have declined to provide assistance and have not been responsive. I am concerned that this vehicle has unresolved safety defects that could put the driver and passengers at risk.

19 Air Bag problem of the 2014 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 03/02/2026

Fca is not handling this recall professionally. Dealerships are stating they do not handle the towing, despite this being a do not drive recall that has resulted in deaths. Fca has used a call center that employs people who barely speak english. Lack of ability to communicate with the customer and dealership staff should disqualify someone from serving in this capacity. The service department at my local dealership seems to be suggesting I just drive the vehicle down, which contradicts the do not drive portion of this recall. I do not believe fca is acting in good faith to perform these recalls in a safe manner for the customer.

22 Air Bag problem of the 2015 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 02/21/2026

I purchased a used 2015 Jeep Wrangler from a dealership in new york. At the time of sale, the vehicle had an open urgent safety recall (19v-018) for a defective takata passenger airbag inflator. This recall was never disclosed to me by the dealership prior to or at the time of purchase. The recall advisory was noted on the nys inspection report conducted the same morning the vehicle was sold to me, but was not communicated to me in any way. I discovered the open recall after experiencing repeated mechanical failures following purchase. Four days after purchase the vehicle overheated and had to be towed — the coolant system was found to be completely empty. An independent licensed mechanic subsequently inspected the vehicle and stated on record that the mechanical defects appeared to be pre-existing conditions that existed prior to the sale. The vehicle currently has an unrepaired takata airbag inflator which the manufacturer has identified as capable of exploding and sending metal fragments into the vehicle interior at high speed, risking serious injury or death to occupants. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. The recall remains unrepaired. The dealership was contacted and a manager verbally acknowledged they did not disclose the known defect prior to sale.

25 Air Bag problem of the 2012 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 01/20/2026

My complaint is that I was sold a dangerously defective vehicle with a known, unrepaired “stop driving” airbag safety recall, was not warned about the deadly risk, and am now being told to move and tow the car in direct contradiction to official safety instructions. ### factual background - the vehicle I purchased has a takata?type airbag safety recall that carries a formal “do not drive” or “stop driving” warning because the airbag can explode and kill or severely injure occupants, even in a minor crash. [1][2][3][4] - federal safety authorities have confirmed that at least 28–29 people in the united states have been killed and more than 400 injured by exploding takata airbag inflators. [3][4][5][1] - I received the recall notice about two months ago, but I was told the repair parts were back?ordered, which delayed fixing the deadly defect through no fault of my own. [1][3] - during this delay, the vehicle’s battery became completely dead, and I am now being told by the recall and towing company that I must make sure the car is taken out of the garage, which would require entering and moving a vehicle I have been legally and explicitly told not to drive. ### legal and safety concerns - official guidance from the national highway traffic safety administration (NHTSA) and the manufacturer is that vehicles under this takata “do not drive” recall must not be driven at all until the defective airbag is replaced, because even a minor collision can cause the inflator to explode and send metal shrapnel into the cabin. [2][4][3][1] - the instruction to move or drive the car out of the garage conflicts with this clear safety warning and effectively asks me to assume a risk that has already caused multiple deaths and serious injuries nationwide. [4][5][2][3][1] - federal law prohibits franchised dealers from selling new vehicles with unrepaired safety recalls, and legal experts warn that selling used vehicles with undisclosed safety defects can expose sellers and dealers to.

26 Air Bag problem of the 2015 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 01/10/2026

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag warning light illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated while making turns, the air bag warning light illuminated, and the vehicle made a beeping sound. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed with the steering wheel clockspring failure. The contact was informed that the clockspring needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 19v018000 (air bags); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

27 Air Bag problem of the 2013 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 01/10/2026

28 Air Bag problem of the 2007 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 01/05/2026

Vehicle information: make: Jeep model: Wrangler model year: 2007 VIN: [xxx] safety recall information: NHTSA campaign 16v-290 manufacturer recall number: s33 component: airbag / clock spring this recall was previously performed by a dealership in February 2021; however, the vehicle is now experiencing the same symptoms the recall was intended to address, indicating the safety defect has reoccurred or was not permanently remedied. The vehicle is currently experiencing: illuminated airbag (srs) warning light horn failure traction control / electronic stability program warning light erratic or abnormal a/c behavior that coincides with the srs/steering wheel electrical faults these failures are consistent with a defective clock spring and directly impact the supplemental restraint system and other active safety systems. I contacted an authorized Jeep dealership to request inspection and repair of this recurring safety defect. The dealership confirmed the recall had been previously completed but refused to diagnose or repair the vehicle, stating in writing: “due to company policy, we are unable to perform diagnostic or repair services on vehicles that are more than 10 years old. ” they further stated that because the recall was marked as completed in 2021, they would not assist further and recommended I seek an independent repair facility. I believe this refusal violates the intent and requirements of the national traffic and motor vehicle safety act (49 u. S. C. §§ 30118–30120), which requires manufacturers to remedy safety defects and does not allow age-based or policy-based refusal when a safety defect exists or reoccurs. This defect involves the airbag system and active safety features and presents an ongoing risk to vehicle occupants. I am requesting NHTSA’s assistance in reviewing this matter and ensuring that the manufacturer and/or authorized dealer fulfills their obligation to properly remedy this safety defect. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 5.

29 Air Bag problem of the 2024 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 11/26/2025

I am filing a safety complaint regarding my leased 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe, VIN 1c4rjxu69rw216368, manufactured by Jeep, leased through stellantis. This vehicle is under an active recall for a battery-related fire risk. I have been informed by the dealership and the manufacturer that no repair or fix is currently available, potentially until next year. Despite this, the oem states the vehicle is “safe to drive” while also instructing me not to park the vehicle indoors, near other vehicles, or near structures due to the risk of fire. This guidance is contradictory and makes normal use of the vehicle unsafe and impractical. I must drive to work and park near other vehicles and buildings, which the manufacturer says not to do. In addition, the vehicle also has an unresolved airbag recall with no fix available. The vehicle is leased, yet I have been told I cannot exchange the vehicle or exit the lease without paying the full remaining term, even though the vehicle cannot be safely used as intended and has no available remedy. I am requesting that NHTSA review whether a vehicle that may catch fire and cannot be safely parked should be considered safe to operate, and whether interim consumer protections or remedies should be required when no repair exists.

30 Air Bag problem of the 2022 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 11/08/2025

I am submitting this supplemental statement regarding my previously filed complaint involving a 2022 Jeep Wrangler. On November 8, 2025, I was involved in a crash that resulted in bodily injury, including head, neck, and back pain, and required post-accident inspection and towing. Despite the nature of the impact and the injuries sustained, the frontal airbag system did not deploy. The manufacturer, stellantis, conducted an inspection through a third-party contractor and advised via email that the airbag system did not deploy because the deceleration threshold was allegedly not met. However, I have not been provided with the event data recorder (edr) data, crash pulse analysis, sensor performance evaluation, or the technical criteria relied upon to reach this conclusion. Given the vehicle damage, injuries sustained, and non-deployment of the frontal airbags, I am concerned that the airbag system may not have functioned as intended or that the deployment thresholds, sensor inputs, or system calibration may be defective or unreasonable. I respectfully request that NHTSA review this incident for potential safety defects related to airbag non-deployment, crash detection thresholds, sensor performance, or system logic in the 2022 Jeep Wrangler.

31 Air Bag problem of the 2022 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 11/08/2025

Component/system failure: airbag system failed to deploy during a rollover accident. The vehicle flipped, and no airbags deployed despite the severity of the crash. The vehicle is currently impounded and available for inspection upon request. Safety risk: my safety was put at risk because the airbags did not deploy during a rollover, increasing the risk of head, neck, and back injury. I experienced head, neck, and back pain following the accident and sought emergency medical care. Reproduction / confirmation: unknown. The issue has not yet been reproduced or formally confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. Inspections performed: the vehicle has been inspected by police and insurance representatives following the crash. The manufacturer has not yet inspected the vehicle. Warnings or prior symptoms: no specific airbag warning lights were present at the time of the crash. However, the vehicle had ongoing mechanical issues prior to the accident, including repeated service visits and unresolved performance concerns. The exact relationship between these prior issues and the airbag non-deployment is unknown.

32 Air Bag problem of the 2022 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 11/08/2025

I am filing this complaint regarding serious safety and consumer protection concerns involving my 2022 Jeep Wrangler (VIN: [xxx] ), manufactured by stellantis, as well as issues involving the towing company e&r towing following my accident. Prior to my accident on November 8, 2025, my vehicle experienced multiple ongoing mechanical issues, including overheating, shaking while driving, and abnormal loud noises. These issues raised serious safety concerns and were not properly resolved. On November 8, 2025, I was involved in a rollover accident. Following the accident, stellantis initiated an investigation and retained bosch/engineering analysis associates to extract event data recorder (edr) data from my vehicle. While presented as an independent inspection, this analysis was conducted by a vendor hired by stellantis, raising concerns about the objectivity and scope of the findings. Stellantis ultimately denied responsibility, stating that the conditions of the crash did not meet the threshold for airbag deployment. However, this conclusion fails to address the ongoing mechanical and safety issues I experienced prior to the accident, including the possibility of system or sensor malfunction. Additionally, my claim for relief under illinois lemon law was denied without fully considering the pattern of defects and safety concerns. I have also filed a complaint with the national highway traffic safety administration (NHTSA), complaint #xxx, regarding safety concerns with this vehicle. Following the accident, my vehicle was handled by e&r towing. I have concerns regarding how my vehicle was managed after the crash, including the handling process and lack of transparency regarding procedures and fees. I am requesting that this matter be reviewed for potential violations of illinois consumer protection laws, including unfair or deceptive practices, failure to properly address known vehicle safety issues, and improper handling of my vehicle following acciden information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act.

Failure Date: 11/01/2025

The contact owns a 2016 Jeep Wrangler. The contact recently replaced the windshield wiper motor due to a failure of the intermittent speed settings not functioning properly.

35 Air Bag problem of the 2012 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 10/10/2025

I was driving through a parking lot, I made a left turn and the airbag light lit up on the dashboard. Then, a chime sounded, like a low fuel chime or door open chime. I turned off the Jeep and went inside the store, I then returned to my Jeep, started it back up, and drove home. Every time I’m at a low speed, and make a left turn, that same chime sound starts to chime and the airbag light flickers. A scan detected the following: b1b06(1/3)active b1cdc(3/3)stored b1b56(2/3)stored I checked for a recall, but can not find anything helpful.
