My complaint is that of the air bags in this vehicle. On saturday october 15, 2016 I was rear ended by another vehicle and forced into a telephone pole stopping me in my tracks. Through the rear impact with the vehicle striking me and the front colision with the telephone pole the air bag system in the vehicle did not deploy.

I had taken my car into a jeep dealership in july of 2015 to get a recall for the airbags fixed. They told me that they did not have the parts necessary to fix it but that they would contact me when the parts became available. First of all I never heard back from them, I still haven't even to this day but I did receive an official notice for the recall in the mail. On april 3, 2016 I was involved in a head on collision which ended with me in the hospital with severe trauma to my spine and my car totaled. In this accident my airbags failed to deploy even though several sensors were hit in this accident. I'm very lucky that I am still actually alive but I am extremely distraught over the fact that I could have avoided injuries if my airbags had deployed. Someone needs to make this right. Attached is an image of what my car looked like following the accident.
I just received a call from jeep that an outstanding recall is still on my vehicle and looking back some months ago, I brought my car into a dealer to have all of the recalls fixed and they said they need to order a part for one of the recalls. I never received a call back stating that the part was ready to be installed. Had it not been for this current call from jeep I would have forgotten all about it. I just don't have time to keep bringing this car in and waiting for parts to be installed on it.

I do not have any change of my vehicle (front sirbag or seatbelt). My jeep liberty 2003. My seatbelt driver is wrong, since date that I bought it.
I brought our jeep to the brookdale chrysler jeep for a occupant restrain module recall. Upon picking up the vehicle we noticed the seat belt light on, so I informed the service manager. They where nonchalant about it . They suggested my wife had something on the seat which she did not. The soluntion was for me to pay to have it taken out and another installed. We asked about a loaner vehicle and he stated we had to rent onespite government requests that they provide recall customers with a free loaner. I now have a air bag light on which was not there before they installed the ocuupant restraint module. This is a directly related part and brookdale chrysler is leaving us hanging. No loaners car signs any where in sight (violation)

Air bags did not deploy after making 2 impacts, totaling vehicle dear chrysler/jeep my name is [xxx] and I have been the proud owner of a 2003 jeep liberty renegade. On june 3, 2016 I was struck by another motorist on my home from work. I commute every day from the southwest suburbs of chicago to downtown chicago. I have taken the utmost pride in my jeep, providing regular maintenance. In the past 6 months I have spent over $1500 in replacements. I recently purchased 4 brand new tires, a new alternator, a new muffler, oil pressure switch and an evap sensor. I have also made purchases to customize my jeep, by adding neon lights in the inside, seat covers, and a new stereo system. Asides from all the love and attention I put into my jeep, there was something about my accident that scared me the most. After the other vehicle struck me, my jeep kept on rolling, hopping a curb, narrowly missing a tree and hopping another curb and totaling my jeep. I suffered a left knee contusion in the end. The real horror is that my air bags did not deploy. For my vehicle to make 2 large impacts and no air bags has left me with a complete distrust in the brand. If my life was at a higher risk or if I had struck that tree or any other vehicle on the road, it's sad to think that the one safety feature that could have saved my life, took no action. Yes, a product liability lawsuit is possible because of this, but I want to ensure 100% that they?re may be thousands out there that put their trust in their jeep, not knowing that it could possibly be a fatal mistake.

Takata recall. Attempted to get the airbag system occupant restraint control module replaced. I was told in 2015 they didn't have the part. Was then told in 2016 that they never received the part. Have placed numerous calls checking to see if the part came it. Calls were not returned. Now how do I get this done? About 6 months ago my airbag light started coming on and off. How do I get this taken care of, if, as claimed, the dealership never received the part to do the work?

For at least 2 years, I have had problems with the air bag light. I have never had an accident. I can be driving and after about 10 minutes, the light will come on and stay on. I have had one recall taken care of and it did not correct the problem. I have a pending recall and according to the dealer, the parts are still not in. I would like to sell my vehicle, but I probably can't with the airbag light on. I only have 84,000 miles.
