Takata recall-- I had an accident january 7, 2016, I hit a pole. The airbags did not deploy. I did a search and I found out there was a recall on this jeep. I only had liability insurance. I got in touch with the company they had the car towed to a dealership and supposedly had it checked out but I don't believe it. I myself and my girlfriend was injured and under doctors care. My car is tore up in the front. Why? Those airbags did not deploy. They could not tell me. I was traveling on rte 49 east.
