Received a recall for the clock spring. The horn in our wrangler stopped working had a mechanic diagnosis the problem as the clock spring. Jeep dealership said the part is on back order. Called jeep and they stated to get the vehicle diagnosed by dealership and they can expedite the part called dealership back and they stated they would charge us to diagnose the problem and it would not help get the part. This vehicle is a safety concern and will not pass inspection so the vehicle can be licensed.

I took it to jeep because the seat belt light keeps coming on. They told me it was the clock spring and they wanted $1000 for it to be fixed. No I find out its happening to all jeeps. They still won't go good for it. It has happened to other year jeeps by still no recall. It's a defect and I would like it to be fixed. I have never received any recall info on my jeep.

Check airbag light coming on and beeping intermittently when vehicle was in motion. Took jeep to dealership, was advised clockspring (in steering column) was faulty with squib 1 circuit open. Had to pay out of pocket for all repairs, even though jeep has a current recall on this issue (s33 clockspring) for same model year and others. No resolution when speaking with jeep customer care who claimed my VIN was not part of the current recall for the exact same problem.

I have a faulty clockspring. There is a recall associated with this: s33. The federal safety agency campaign #: 16v290000. The faulty clockspring is effecting the airbags, stability control system and windshield wipers. For some reason my vehicle is not being covered by the recall.

Three warning lights are on: two stability and one airbag. The windshield wipers act strange and won't turn off. The clockspring needs replaced.

The airbag light started coming on and off and sounding a chime as the steering wheel is turned about a year ago. Now it stays on all the time. There is a recall for the clockspring but it doesn't apply to my vehicle which I don't understand as it obviously has the problem. I understand my airbag won't work in this condition and is a safety issue.

Second time the clock spring has gone defective. Airbag light on. Dealership charging for diagnosis and repair. Check all the jeep groups, this is a common problem and needs to be addressed by chrysler.

Air bag light goes off constantly. If vehicle is on, warning light will go off and ding every couple of mins, whether wheel is straight or turning. Annoying and apparently common problem. Hope my airbag doesn't kill me.
