Takata recall our 2014 jeep compass was involved in a 5 car accident 3/4/2019 in henderson nv. Proceeding east bound on I-215, a white hyundai was stalled in the center lane in the beginning of rush hour traffic. A red toyota traveling at approximately 70 MPH struck the rear end of the hyundai catapulting the hyundai across lanes into the passenger doors (front and back) of our 2014 jeep compass destroying the passenger rear door where my 12 year old son was seated causing injury to his shoulder neck and arm. At no time did the passenger side airbags deploy as they should have, were designed to do or marketed as a safety feature. In addition this crash was after fulfilling the requested takata airbag recall work and returning our 2014 jeep compass to chapman chrysler jeep service center for recall work specifically on the occupant restraint controller . The recall work was completed between 12/10-13/2018. Our 2014 jeep compass was also east bound on I-215 traveling approximately 60 MPH and was just passing in the left furthermost lane the stalled hyundai when the toyota rear ended the hyundai catapulting the hyundai into the passenger side of our jeep compass.
My passenger airbag sensor keeps randomly popping up. I was driving & a light signaling airbag pops up.
2 years! For over 12 years my airbag light has been on..... For 2 years this vehicle has had this recall for the occupant restraint controller. The potential loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability ... 2 years I I have inquired about getting this fixed, for 2 years I am being told that the parts are not available... Yet they are churning out new jeeps every single day... Why cant this be replaced with one from the new jeeps? Thankfully I haven't had an accident, and needed this airbag, but what if I would? What if I were to have an accident where an airbag could have saved my life? Will jeep do something then? Why aren't they being held accountable to fix this? Mileage and speed entries are just number to fill the blanks, since I did not have an accident... The date filled in is the date the recall was posted.
Takata recall - 12.21.17, took my vehicle to nissani bros jeep, dodge, chrysler at 5750 mesmer ave b, culver city, ca 90230 where I ordered the recall parts. They processed my recall and I picked up my car a week later. I received a notice that there was still an open recall on my car, and I thought that that may be a delay. I just received another recall notice, and called them to clarify that they had in fact fixed the recall, only to find out that they had not. I spoke with a technician who said that their records at first indicated that it had been completed, but upon further inspection, the recall had not been completed and I have since driven over 1k miles.
"jeep compass recall". Good afternoon, I was unaware that my jeep is under a recall. I haven't received anything in the mail regarding the recall. My address hasn't changed and I haven't heard anything in writing about my jeep's recall. I would at least like a letter explaining my recall so I can get this taken care of as soon as possible.

Cannot trade in my car due to recall. I have a new son and feel extremely unsafe in vehicle.
Power rear window intermittently would not raise after being lowered. Following a trip to my son't violin practice. After raising using the rear window power up, it raised and then worked fine. A few months later, out of the blue one morning the jeep would not start. It was parked overnight in our driveway. Called roadside service and they attempted to jump it off with a jump box and it would still not start. Had a friend stop by and assist with jumper cables and after three attempts it started. Advance auto checked the battery/starter/alternator and all tested fine. Taken to dealer and totally integrated power modeule required changing and was not covered by either warranty or extended warranty I purchased when origionally bought. That was two weeks ago. Two days ago, out of the blue the horn honked. Then tonight, after being parked again overnight, I attempted to start my jeep and upon turning the key in the ignition only the dash lights and radio came on x2. On the third attempt the vehicle started. First occurance was 7/26/2017 second 8/8/2017 following two days in the shop and a changed tipm.

I been having issues with my seatbealt restraint and my newborn driving in her seatbelt. Several times I have complained about her car seat not being held firmly and flips when I turn. The company is yet to remedy the situation. As a mother is is very uncomfortable for me and they have not find a solution. I do not believe my investment in this car was worth my now lack of safety for me and my child. This situation happens while my car is in motion and she begins to scream.
