Driving down a residential street and all of a sudden my airbag light comes on and makes a chime noise. Now it does it off and on the whole time it is being driven. Also if your sitting steal and you turn the steering wheel it will do it as well. I'm thinking it may be due to the clockspring.

Identical issue as found with the federal safety agency # 10908927 vehicle stalls while driving and cannot be restarted without putting the vehicle in park. Purchased the vehicle used with 170,000 miles on it. Carfax shows great care into the vehicle, however within first 24 hours after purchase have found it to stall while driving and at idle near 6x. Have taken to auto repair shop/autozone/used ifixit code finder and nothing is found. This has created hazardous driving conditions as it will happen at random.

This morning the car would not start at all. Battery is 100%. All lights come on, everything else works fine but engine will not start. Vehicle is in excellent condition very low mileage. If this would have happened out in the bush we would be in serious trouble. Chatter on most of the jeep forums confirms multiple no start issues across the jeep product line.
