The air bag warning light came on intermittently. It did that about ever five minutes. It has done that since that date. I took it to the faricy boys jeep dealer in colorado springs, they stated that the air bag was not working. I asked if this was a safety item to be paid for by the manufacture. He said "no." he said I had to pay for this repair if I wanted a new airbag. I find this replacement cost for this item strange for two reasons. One: I believe this is a safety item, and two: airbags are being recalled for a number of different cars at this very time and are being replaced at no cost.

There is a problem which most everybody experiences on 1999 and up jeep grand cherokees. The airbag light and chime continuously , randomly. This light and chime indicated the airbag is inoperative. This is typically due to a faulty unreliable designed "clockspring" in steering wheel under the airbag assy. This is very costly to fix and should definitely be recalled for repair no charge to customer. Please research and you will find that this is extremely wide spread. There is a fear that bag may deploy while driving due to short in system. This would be catastrophic. Please investigate asap, this is urgent.

This a is known (very common) problem on most jeeps after a certain mileage. The air bag light and bell alarm constantly chime to let you know that the airbag is not active or inop, and wont work. There is a part in the steering wheel under air-bag called a "clock-spring" that goes bad on tens of thousands of jeeps. They (chrysler) know about it. It should be recalled,but they ignore the safety hazard and defective design. This needs to be recalled on all models affected not just one year (which I think is 2004).

Tl*the contact owns a 2001 jeep grand cherokee. While making a left turn, another vehicle crashed into the front end of the contact's vehicle. The contact was traveling 45 MPH at the time of the crash. The air bags failed to deploy, but there were no injuries. The police officer at the scene stated that the air bags should have deployed since the front end was so badly damaged. A report was filed. The contact feels that the vehicle is unsafe because the air bags did not deploy at such high speeds. The current and failure mileages were 62,000.

Window regulators in this car have broken twice in less than a year and cost $550 to have repaired. I had one repaired in sept 07. I can't afford this and am driving with plastic on my second window this happened too. The windows just drop as I'm driving at 60mph.
