2016 Jeep Wrangler airbags complaints
Page 3 of 4: complaints 41 to 70 of 77, newest first, as owners wrote them.
I was traveling down a city street and the person coming the other direction crossed the double yellow line. We collided head on and my airbag did not deploy. I had recently replaced the airbag due to a recall from the manufacturer. This accident resulted in my vehicle being totaled. Furthermore I received several injuries including a concussion and whiplash. The airbag did deploy on the kia that hit me.
Received notice from jeep that a recall was in effect for the airbag sensor switch located somewhere within the front bumper.. The switch maybe disconnected at time of impact and not message the air bags to deploy... The hard rock addition jeep has an access port located within the front bumper specifically for the purpose of installing a winch/winch plate... Dealership advised it would cost additional 100 dollars to repair the recall as the winch would have to be removed partially or in total... Contacted customer service / case management at jeep corp and was advised it would not cover the cost to remove the winch that it was more or less between the dealership and me.. My thoughts are that the bumper was designed by jeep to install a winch inside the bumper with top and front removable plates and that they are responsible regardless....
2016 jeep wrangler. Consumer writes in regards to urgent airbag safety recall. *ld the consumer stated the dealer canceled the scheduled recall repair and did not schedule a new appointment.
Takata recall. I have been on the phone with jeep (833‑585‑0144) to get my airbag replaced on numerous times. There are no parts available. They have called dealers and I am on a waiting list at a jeep dealer for over two months. I believe they should be required to provide me a rental car until parts are available as this is a unsafe vehicle to drive.

Clock spring needs replacing.
Takata recall. Airbag light recently turned on. After using a diagnostic tool to decode the problem I'm given code b1b02. This was an open recall on half a million older jeep wranglers. However mine is not included in the recall and feel it should be concerning the potential seriousness that could arise.
Takata recall I called the dealer about the recall. They didn't call me back. They were unsure if the stock status of the part. The dealer I called was brighton chrysler in michigan.
Takata recall. The airbag warning light indicated a fault with a chime , june 2019. The driver airbag clockspring recall was performed in october 2016 shortly after purchase. The dealership says there was a two year warranty, which has expired.the dealership tells me the repair cost is approximately $1200.00. My complaint is the replacement parts used in the recall are giving warning indicators like the original airbag parts. I use the jeep for mail delivery on dirt roads that are extremely dusty most of the year. This is the main reason for the original airbag recall. "the airbag clockspring may ingest dust if the vehicle is subjected to dusty environments, compromise airbag circuits, cause illumination of the airbag warning light". I feel the original problem still exists and the recall replacement parts have failed. I think this is a recall concern. I have contacted fiat chrysler automobile group recall assistance center , they did not help. I I am paying for the repair. But I feel like the safely problem still exists, and when dust covers this part it will malfunction.
I received the recall notice and the courtesy calls however I've had my appt cancelled by the dealer because they do not have the parts. This is going on for 3 months. The dealers near me do not have these parts and have placed us on a 'list'. In the mean time we need to drive with a vehicle that can cause us injury or death because chrysler cannot make these parts quick enough or send enough to cover the amount of vehicles with the problem.

During a rollover crash which initiated at 40 miles per hour, the frontal airbags failed to deploy. The vechicle rolled and an adequate amount of force to deploy the air bags should have been triggered. As a result the ooccupants experience extensive injuries consistent with sudden deceleration.
Takata recall: took my jeep in for recall repair & told by service dealer (redlands, ca) that chrysler is not sending the parts for recall to be completed. They are to contact me once the parts are in.
Tamara recall. I was hit by a drunk driver at highway speed here in texas on 12/7/2018. Air bags didn't deploy in my 2016 jeep jku. All air bags deployed in the drunk drivers vehicle. She walked away and I was taken to the hospital. If my airbags had deployed from such a hard impact I might have walked away like the drunk driver. So much for having airbags if they don't work. Both vehicles had to be towed away from the scene due to extent of damages. *dt

Air bag warning light on, but no current recalls
Received several recall letters from fca. Finally called the dealer to schedule what you say is a 2 hour repair. First problem, they say they have not received any parts to effect a repair on any of the effected vehicles . That has been over one year. Now that you are sending out the notices for a year, my wife is concerned that if she were to be involved in an accident, the air bags may not deploy as designed. There has to be some kind of time frame for the manufacturer to make needed repairs or what good is your department?

On january 30, 2017 another vehicle pulled out in front of me and stopped. I hit that vehicle with my 2016 jeep wrangler at about 30-35mph. The impact totaled both vehicles. My jeep's frame was buckled and twisted all of the way to the rear bumper. The rear body mount bolt were even bent. The airbags didn't deploy and the seat belts didn't pretension. I hit the dash with both knees and got abdominal muscle injuries as well as severe whiplash. I am still under a doctor's care for my injuries including a pinched nerve between c5-c6. Fca opened an investigation and sent me a letter stating that "the rate of deceleration necessary to activate the air bag and air bag system was not present during this accident". The impact buckled my frame and totaled a 5 month old vehicle, but fca wants me to believe that it wasn't severe enough for the air bags to deploy. Fca is either being deceptive or their vehicles are simply unsafe. Either way, due to their deceptive actions, it is impossible to know how many accidents are truly related to this vehicle defect. I found out about the recall (s76) the week after my accident when I filed a complaint with fca. My vehicle was in the dealership for its first oil change two weeks after this recall was issued, but it wasn't repaired and I wasn't informed of a recall. I received my recall notice today, 74 days after my accident. I have the police report, pictures of the jeep and the frame, the insurance adjuster's cell phone number as well as all correspondence with fca, should you want it...updated 05/09/17 *bf updated 9/27/18
Currently a recall for a sensor of the airbags. I installed mopar LED headlights. They say the headlights get destroyed during the fix and they put stock headlights back in, not what I currently have. They are factory made mopar headlights that cost approx $950.00. I don't want to get this recall done because I don't think I should lose out on that much money. Chrysler designed these headlights so that can only be put in once. They should suffer the consequences of that design by replacing them for a safety recall, not have me lose out on the money I spent making my vehicle safer.
