Air bags light come on and horn stopped working
Unknown But my concern is the clock spring recall. I would like that fixed I don't understand why I can't have it fixed under the recall for my Jeep Wrangler 2 door. I am worried that the air bag won't work... right now the horn and a few other controls on the steering wheel doesn't work. So I believe this vehicle is part of the recall.
The steering wheel clock spring fail and jeep has always given me hassles at the dealership and it was not convenient to where I lived. So I had my local shop fix it. They asked me where and why I got it fixed somewhere else and I answered. They even have a reimbursement from for work done by other shops and they outright denied my claim. I drove a year with no airbag because they installed faulty products that allowed dust to enter my clock spring and risk my life. I want reimbursement. It was $1400 to get it fixed and I should not be liable for that when they have a reimbursement section and don’t outline what does and does not qualify. They won’t provide me with exact verbiage or where I would even see that on the page. Please help me. I’m begging. It’s so much money for me and nothing for a mega corporation like Stellantis.
My horn and all my steering wheel controls just stopped working due to a failure of the clock spring. This should be a recall as it's a safety issue.
My clock spring on my jeep stopped working. I know when I looked online there is a recall on 2015 jeep wrangler clock spring being bad. My horn, steering controls, and air bags aren’t working correctly. If it’s recalled it should be fixed free of charge.
The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failed passenger’s side air bag sensor. The contact was informed that the passenger’s side air bag sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 135,000.
Buttons on steering wheel does not work also the horn does not work also. I believe it's the clockspring which is a recall for some jeeps but not mine. Which affects the horn and airbag.
Air bag indicator began coming on intermittently. It was taken to the local dealer and was diagnosed with a faulty clock spring
A faulty clock spring is causing the air bag light to stay on. It is also affecting the horn and steering wheel controls.
This vehicle's airbag clockspring was previously replaced under a safety recall in Jan 2017. The airbag light came on again, Jeep was taken to dealership because of major safety concern, airbag may not deploy when airbag light illuminated. Jeep Dealership discovered the clockspring had to be replaced again. Repair was completed by Jeep Dealership on Sept 7th 2021, receipt included. The problem was also reported to Jeep Customer Service for possible reimbursement because of previous recall, but reimbursement was denied, because replacement clockspring out of warranty.

Clockspring failed. Airbag light is on and will not deploy due to clockspring failure. This is known safety issue for Jeep. My last Jeep had to have 2 replaced. I am told there is no recall for this year of Jeep clockspring but when I look online it says that 2007-2010 vehicles and 2011-2016 right hand drive. The recall for the years 2007-2010 started as right hand drive only and ended up extending to all Jeep’s. This one should as well. Obviously they make a substandard product and someone has to die before they recall and fix it. I do not have anything to upload as my vehicle is currently at the dealership and I am told the clockspring needs to be replaced. I live in rural Kansas, the closest part is in St Louis Missouri. It will take 2 days to get arrive and THIS IS NOT UNDER RECALL BUT SHOULD BE!!!!!
First, my vehicle intermittently would not allow me to scroll through the on dash menu, then the steering wheel audio controls began to do the same. Eventually, all steering wheel controls except cruise control ceased to operate including the horn. This was all just inconvenient until the horn ceased to work. Multiple times now I’ve been on the roadway while other cars have drifted into my lane with no way of making my presence known. Finally, my airbag light began intermittently coming on. Within two days, it’s now on all the time. I understand this to mean that my driver side airbag will not deploy in the case of a collision. This is a basic safety function that is not working and is due to a known manufacturer’s design flaw.
The driver's side airbag deployed/exploded while the car was parked and not in use. Luckily nobody was driving at the time as this could have caused serious injury or death -- imagine if a driver-side airbag went off while driving, prompting a collision with other vehicles and/or pedestrians. The car had not been driven for approximately 24 hours and had not been in any accidents or had any previous incidents. There were no warning lights previously regarding the airbag or any other issues with the car. The car has been seen by Lake Norman Jeep Chrysler (and is still there) and they did replace the passenger side airbag per a recall. They do not know the cause of the deployment. The airbag and ORC module need replacement at a cost of $2,200. The dealer said that Jeep would not cover the cost for the repairs because the driver's side airbag is not being recalled and because the car is no longer under warranty. The dealer suggested we contact Chrysler directly via their customer assistance department. Chrysler Customer Assistance Center (800‑247‑9753) was not interested in helping us figure this out and in fact, would not let us speak to a manager regarding this situation. They stated that the airbag costs would not be covered as the 2015 Jeep Wranger is no longer under warranty. We feel it is Jeep's responsibility to fix/pay for this defect and it should also be looked into further to see if there are many others, or if this is a standalone case. Some google searches have said some airbags have been known to explode due to heat/humidity. The temperature at the time of deployment was approximately 75 degrees. We are most disheartened by the poor response from Chrysler's Customer Assistance Center, and shocked that they would not let us speak to a manager. Unbelievable lack of concern and service.
Takata recall. The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 19V018000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The local dealer and the manufacturer were made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
Air bag light is on intermittently. Running checks throughout my 2015 Jeep Wrangler, the issue resides in a faulty clockspring. After doing research it appears Chrysler/Jeep issued a recall for RHD Jeep Wranglers on faulty clockspring due to dust contamination. Looking over several Wrangler forums, the issue doesn't reside in just the RHD Jeep Wranglers, but also LHD Jeep Wranglers as well. The part is interchangeable for RHD and LHD Jeep Wranglers. I would assume more LHD Jeep Wranglers are manufactured as to the reason the recall wasn't pushed to LHD Jeep Wranglers to keep costs down.
The horn is not working and the airbag light turned on on the dashboard while it was parked.
Chrysler refuses to replace the air bags after sending me a recall notice. They said it is to far away.
Airbag light randomly turns on and off while in use.
My horn and steering wheel buttons do not work. I have not been in an accident, so I am not sure how this is going to affect my airbags.
Air bag warning light came on in motion. Had to replace clockspring again. Previously replaced under 2016 recall. Since no current recall, I had to pay for new clockspring and labor myself, totaling $593.67.
I was stopped in a turn lane waiting for the traffic light to change when I was impacted by another driver at approximately 45 MPH. The drive drove directly into the front of my jeep as if she was aiming for it. Despite my foot being on the brake my jeep was pushed in reverse at least 50 ft due to the forceful impact. Neither vehicles were drivable due to the frontend damage. Thankfully, I was wearing my seatbelt because my airs didn't not deploy as expected in a frontend collision.
Recall was preformed on this vehicle approx 4 mounts ago... The clock spring has failed.
My clock spring is defective. It is a common problem in the 2015 jeep wranglers
This vehicle was being repaired at our shop and when our technician was completed with repairs he was driving the vehicle down to be cleaned up. Once he started backing up into a parking spot the drivers airbag blew and hit him in the arm and left a huge bruise.

On aug 16, 2019, I received a letter from the virginia department of motor vehicles informing me that my 2015 jeep wrangler has a fca us llc ('fca us') safety issue related to my airbags. These airbags are defective and have killed and injured hundreds of people. The letter states that if my chrysler/dodge/jeep dealership, leesburg, va, is unable to remedy the defect for free within a reasonable time frame, then I should submit a complaint to the federal safety agency administrator, 1200 new jersey ave, se, wdc 20590. The dealership informed me that they only perform 6 repairs for this recall per month. I am number 116 in a wait list. Therefore, I will have a defective air bag in my jeep wrangler for over 19 months without a free and timely repair. Knowing that this is a defective airbag that can risk the health and lives of my family, this is not acceptable. I am submitting this complaint for action to the federal safety agency to assist in having this dealership provide more timely repairs for known defects that kill people.
