Takata recall- I was in an accident on 10/13/16. I was driving on the highway and when I went around a turn it seemed like my brakes were locking up or something, I started swerving around on the highway and I eventually lost control of my vehicle and ended up rolling the vehicle twice before landing down an embankment. My car was deemed a total loss. I estimate that I was going at a rate of around 45-50 miles per hour. None of the airbags went off. At a high speed impact the airbags should have gone off. I suffered minor injuries, and I still have pain in both my knees.

There is recall to replace the occupant restrain controller on my car however when I call the dealer to schedule an appointment and get it replaced I was told that chrysler has put a hold on the measure as a solution because replacing the part may do more damage than it already does and that for now they were just taking names down and will call back once the company has a better solution. I however have noticed that sometimes that pressure to hold the seat belt in does not stay and tensioner opens randomly.

I received this recall notice in late oct/nov 2016. The day I received it, I called the number listed and was put on a waiting list to let me know when the part was available. I received another recall notice the week of 8/21/17 for the exact same reason. I called my jeep dealership and told them about the recall notice a scheduled an appointment. This morning I go to drop off my jeep and they tell me that they do not have the part and that they would put me on a list. This recall is just shy of a year old now. I feel that this should have been fixed by now. No one has ever called me about this part becoming available.

It has been 11 months since this recall. I contacted jeep - there still isn't a fix. Air bags & seat belts that do not function properly are a major safety issue. My daughter is a new driver & I'm scared to let her drive. I bought this car for safety & it is not safe. I feel like there is something wrong with the suspension - it's now rattling under the front tire.
Safety recall issued september 13, 2016 (fca recall #s61 | the federal safety agency recall #16v‑668). As of july 27, 2017 there is no fix available.
I have taken the jeep back to the dealer 3 time to have the recall repaired. Each time I was told there is no salutation to the recall as of yet. I think they should replace this jeep with an up graded jeep as soon as possible or buy it back. The set belt become lock and chokes you going down the road and you have to release the belt and re set it so you are not being choked.

Received a recall notice about faulty airbag/seatbelt pretensioner. Dealership says they have no fix yet but it's a big deal to me because this affects safety devices and potentially my family's safety. I had to hard brake the other day and my son's seat belt didn't lock and he fell over in his booster seat

In september of 2016 jeep discovered a serious, possibly fatal risk potential associated with a sensor involved in restraining seat belts and deploying air bags "under certain impact conditions". As an owner, I was not apprised of this risk until june 20, 2017. Then, when I inquired about the availability of a repair to correct this lemon I was "informed", "advised" there was no repair available and such repair(s) may not be available for six months. I was given a vague estimate, and vague "assurance" I would be apprised of repair availability when ready. I asked, "should I bee driving this flaw?" they had no specific guidance. Seriously? Accordinfly, I am invoking "lemon law" and demanding full liquidation of my existing auto loan at jeep's expense. If they do not oblige, I shall seek civil suit damages by jury trial for added emotional pain and suffering coupled with their failure to fully-disclose potential fatal flaw for over six months to jeep owners. I expect the federal safety agency to manage this claim. Period. What a mess. What country is this? Is anyone watching and protecting consumers? I expect the federal safety agency to force jeep to immediately undertake a full buyback program no later than july 1, 2017. Period.

This recall has been recognized as increasing risk of injury in the event of certain crashes, however, there is still not a remedy from the dealer. The original recall date is september 2016, so it has been nearly a year. I feel that it would be imperative that a remedy is provided in a timely fashion to prevent the need to provide a recount of an injury due to a crash. Nearly a year seems extensive for providing a suitable resolution to an issue.
