The fuse box under hood is labeled incorrectly and on the cover states spare fuses in cavity 29 and 30. However, it is acctually the airbags which is why it is in a yellow safety holder and also the original manual that comes with the jeep states that it is the airbag. However directly on the box under the hood it says cavity 29 and 30 are spares which are causing people to pull them out and use them as spares elsewhere unaware that they are in danger

While driving 40 MPH on a 2 lane road the passenger sidewall airbag deployed seconds after the airbag warning light came on. There was no impact. Car was driven about 2 miles to the jeep dealer where it was purchased. They suggested I call chrysler. Chrysler sent an engineer to investigate. Chrysler sent me a letter stating that there was nothing that would leave them to believe it was the manufacturer's responsibility. I am trying to find out why it deployed. Chrysler will not provide me with this information. If they can make a determination that it was not a manufacturer defect, then they should know what caused it in order to make that determination. I spoke to an auto body shop as suggested by the dealer to get a rough estimate of the repair cost but they said they were not interested in repairing it without knowing what caused it do to liability issues, which I understand. I do not know what caused the deployment but chrysler must know or else they couldn't determine it was not a manufacture problem.....updated 11/21/17 *bf
