I WAS SLOWING AT A LIGHT WHEN THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. IT HIT MY STOMACH AND CHEST AND THE HORN STAYED ON. I JUMPED OUT OF MY JEEP AND THE DRIVER BEHIND ME GOT OUT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED. THERE WAS SMOKE EVERYWHERE AND HE TOLD ME TO TURN ON THE JEEP TO MOVE IT OFF TO THE SIDE BUT I WAS TOO SCARED SO HE TURNED THE KEY TO PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND WE PUSHED IT OFF TO THE SIDE. I WAITED OUTSIDE FOR MY HUSBAND TO COME AND THE HORN CONTINUED TO BEEP AND MY STOMACH WAS IN PAIN. I WAS ALREADY BRUISING AND MY FINGERS WERE COVERED IN BLACK POWDER...UPDATED 01/25/16 *BF.
I WANT MY CAR INCLUDED IN RECALL J17. MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE SAFETY RECALL "CHRYSLER RECALL NO. J17", CAMPAIGN # 09V119000 . I HAVE VERIFIED WITH CHRYSLER THAT MY CAR WAS BOTH BUILT AND SOLD IN ILLINOIS, AND THEREFORE IN THE TARGET RECALL POPULATION. SEE FOLLOWING EXCERPT FROM RECALL TEXT: CHRYSLER IS RECALLING 42,469 MY 2002-2003 JEEP LIBERTY VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN SALT BELT STATES OF CONNECTICUT, DELAWARE, IOWA, ILLINOIS, INDIANA, KENTUCKY, MASSACHUSETTS, MAINE, MARYLAND, MICHIGAN, MINNESOTA, MISSOURI, NEW HAMPSHIRE, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA, RHODE ISLAND, VERMONT, VIRGINIA, WEST VIRGINIA , WISCONSIN AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. THE FRONT SUSPENSION UPPER CONTROL ARM BALL JOINT MAY EXPERIENCE A LOSS OF LUBRICATION WHICH COULD LEAD TO CORROSION, ACCELERATED WEAR, AND POSSIBLE SEPARATION WHILE DRIVING.
MY 2003 JEEP LIBERTY HAS BEEN SHUTTING OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING IT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ON GOING FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS NOW AND I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO FIX IT MULTIPLE TIMES. I ALMOST GOT INTO A VERY BAD CRASH RECENTLY BECAUSE OF THE ISSUE AND AS A 19 YEAR OLD GIRL ITS A VERY SCARY ISSUE TO BE DEALING WITH. I HAVE PUT IN $400 FOR NEW SPARK PLUGS WHICH DIDN'T' EVEN FIX THE PROBLEM AS WELL AS NEW TIRES AND BRAKES. THIS LITTLE CAR PROBLEM IS TAKEN A TOLL ON MY WHOLE LIFE. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE YET STILL NO ANSWERS. WHAT HAPPENS WHILE IM DRIVING USUALLY IF IM BRAKING AND OR TURNING MY CAR WILL SHUT OFF THE OIL LIGHT WILL TURN ON FOR A SECOND AND BEEP AND THEN IF I WANT IT TO KEEP GOING I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY AGAIN AND IT WILL START BUT THIS IS NO LONGER OKAY AND THE PROBLEM SHOULD BE KNOWN TO JEEP OWNERS OR FUTURE BUYERS ESPECIALLY OF MY MODEL. PLEASE TAKE MY COMPLAINT IN CONSIDERATION AND LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE HAS ANY ANSWERS. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).? *JB

TAKATA RECALL--TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER IN REGARDS TO AIRBAG RECALL. WAS TOLD "PARTS ARE UNAVAILABLE TO FIX THIS ISSUE", BUT IT WAS "SAFE TO DRIVE" AS LONG AS THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT DID NOT REMAIN ON FULL TIME. ON THE WAY HOME FROM THE DEALER, THE INDICATOR DID INDEED COME ON & NOT GO OFF. IN RESEARCHING THIS ONLINE, I SEE "PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL LATE 2016!" I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER ABOUT BEING UNABLE TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE & WAS BASICALLY BRUSHED OFF. THE ONE PERSON WHO WAS TRYING TO HELP US, HAD US ON HOLD SO LONG CALLING AROUND THAT THEIR SYSTEM HUNG UP THE PHONE. I CAN NOT SIT ON A CAR FOR A YEAR, UNABLE TO DRIVE IT, HAVING TO RELY ON ONE VEHICLE FOR OUR FAMILY, AND NOT HAVE ANY RECOURSE OR COMPENSATION TO OFFSET OUR TIME & FRUSTRATION.

THIS COMPLAINT IS IN REGARDS TO THE FOLLOWING: THE AIRBAG SYSTEM OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROL (ORC) MODULE MAY EXPERIENCE A FRONT AIRBAG AND/OR SEATBELT PRETENSIONER INADVERTENT DEPLOYMENT. AS OF NOV 7, 2015 THIS REPAIR HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED AND I HAVE NOT HAVE ANY CONTACT FROM THE MANUFACTURER. I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY 19 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WHO IS THE PRIMARY OPERATOR OF THIS JEEP. THE ONLY INFORMATION I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FIND ABOUT THE STATUS OF THIS REPAIR FROM CHRYSLER JEEP INDICATES THERE IS NOT YET A REMEDY AVAILABLE UNTIL 2016. THE LAST RECALL NOTICE I RECEIVED WAS AS OF FEB 6, 2015 BUT I BELIEVE I RECEIVED OTHERS DATING BACK TO 2014. THE SAFERCAR.GOV WEBSITE CURRENTLY SHOWS THE FOLLOWING: RECALL STATUS: RECALL INCOMPLETE. REMEDY NOT YET AVAILABLE.
I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO SUBMIT MY 2003 JEEP LIBERTY FOR RECALL REPAIRS RELATING TO RECALL N46 AND R06 BEGINNING MORE THAN A YEAR AGO TO MY TWO NEAREST JEEP DEALERSHIPS; TATE JEEP IN FREDERICK AND CENTURY JEEP IN MT. AIRY, MARYLAND. WHEN I INQUIRE THAT I HAVE RECEIVED NOTICES BY MAIL INSTRUCTING FOR RECALL REPAIRS I AM BEING IGNORED FOR SERVICE. CENTURY JEEP PLACED ME ON A CALL-BACK LIST, BUT I WAS NEVER CONTACTED. WHEN I CALLED AFTER 4-5 MONTHS I WAS TOLD I AM STILL ON THE WAITING LIST. A YEAR HAS GONE BY WITH NO FURTHER CONTACT. WHEN I INQUIRED OF TATE JEEP ABOUT RECALL REPAIRS THEY WILL NOT RESPOND BACK TO ME. I FOUGHT WITH CENTURY JEEP FOR ABOUT A YEAR TO HAVE MY AIRBAG RECALL ADDRESSED. FRANKLY, I AM TIRED OF BEGGING AND PLEADING WITH MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIPS TO HAVE RECALL WORK PERFORMED. I HAVE BEEN AFRAID EVERY DAY I DRIVE MY LIBERTY OF HAVING THE AIR BAG EXPLODE IN MY FACE OR MY GAS TANK EXPLODING FROM A REAR END COLLISION. CAN YOU HELP PROMPT MY DEALERSHIPS TO ADDRESS THESE OUTSTANDING RECALLS. I CONTINUE TO RECEIVE RECALL NOTICES ON A PERIODIC BASIS INFORMING ME THAT MY RECALLS HAVE NOT BEEN REPAIRED, BUT THE DEALERSHIPS REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING. CENTURY JEEP TELLS ME THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE RECALL REPAIR PARTS IN STOCK. THEY TELL ME THAT THEY ONLY GET A COUPLE EACH MONTH FROM CHRYSLER. HOW MUCH LONGER DO I HAVE TO DRIVE THIS DEATH TRAP? I APPRECIATE ANY HELP YOU CAN PROVIDE ME. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
