Just prior to a cross country trip, my airbag warning light came on. Upon arriving to our destination in Spring Hill, TN, I took my 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee to have it checked. Their diagnosis found a "squib" problem, and told me there was a recall and to take it to a Chrysler dealer. Today, the dealership showed me a "squib" or "clockspring" issue & told me there was no recall and that I would have to pay out of pocket to replace what seems to be the recall problem. Upon further research, I found online that there is indeed a recall. But after calling the phone number provided, (800-853-1403) they informed me that even though it might be the same problem I would have to pay out of pocket for the repair. I don't understand why. This is the recall info I found online: NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID: 09V118000 Report Date: APR 07, 2009 Vehicles Affected: 4336 Consequence: IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG MAY NOT PROPERLY INFLATE AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PROPERLY PROTECT AN OCCUPANT, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURIES. What You Should Do: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG SQUIB WIRES AND REPLACE THE STEERING COLUMN CONTROL MODULE FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING MAY 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403. Summary: CHRYSLER IS RECALLING 4,336 MY 2009 DODGE JOURNEY, JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, COMMANDER AND WRANGLER VEHICLES. WIRING MAY BE REVERSED ON THE STEERING COLUMN CONTROL MODULE DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB CONNECTOR. THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY AS INTENDED. To see if your specific vehicle is affected 1-877-426-5337 or nhtsa.gov The dealership I went to was Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Columbia, TN 931-360-0800 The original automotive shop I took it to was Christian Bros Automotive 615-645-3299 I would appreciate 1)an explanation of why my particular car isn't on the list even though it's having the issue under the recall and 2) why I have to pay out of pocket.

My vehicle has stopped 3 times this year without warning. Twice while I was driving and once while my daughter was driving. There is a click sound and the radio and everything on in the vehicle goes. The vehicle begins to slow down. Luckly when this happened there were no cars around so each time we are able to stop the vehicle wait a second and start the vehicle without an issue. This is a very dangerous issue and this needs to be fixed ASAP.

I WAS DRIVING THE OTHER DAY AND ALL THE SUDDEN I HIT A BUMP AND THE KEY FOB FALLS OUT OF THE IGNITION CUTTING THE ENGINE COMPLETELY OFF. SO I WAS COASTING WITH NO ENGINE OR POWER. LUCKILY I PUT IT IN TO NEUTRAL AND IT STARTED BACK UP. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS. ALSO MY KEY WILL NOT RELEASE WHEN I AM TRYING TO TURN THE CAR OFF SO I HAVE TO LEAVE IT ON SOMETIMES AND IT HAS KILLED MY BATTERY. MOST OF THE TIME IT WILL RELEASE AFTER A CLICKING NOISE I CAN TURN IT TO THE OFF POSITION AND IT WILL RELEASE. IT HAS COST ME TWO BATTERIES AND A NEW KEY

THE CAR WILL NOT START WITH IGNITION FOB. THIS HAPPENS UNPREDICTABLY. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR A LONG TIME. WE THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY BUT NOW, WITH A NEW BATTERY IT STILL OFTEN WILL NOT START. IF WE WAIT FOR SOME UNKNOWN PERIOD OF TIME IT EVENTUALLY CRANKS AND STARTS. WE NEVER KNOW WHEN AND IF WE CAN LEAVE OR VISA VERSA FOR RETURNING HOME. WHEN EVER THIS HAPPENS THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY IN LEGAL PARKING PLACE. HOWEVER, IT HAS CUT OFF WILL DRIVING.

TOOK OUR JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER THE KEY FOB KEPT GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND WOULDN'T RELEASE. THEY SAID IT WAS THE WIN MODULE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THE KEY WOULD HAVE TO BE REPROGRAMMED FOR THAT WIN MODULE! WELL, SINCE THEN, WE'VE NOTICED THAT WHEN WE ARE ABLE TO GET THE KEY OUT (FROM HITTING ABOVE THE IGNITION TO GET IT TO RELEASE, OR WAITING AN HOUR FOR IT TO EJECT ON IT'S OWN) THE RADIO WILL KEEP PLAYING, SO WE HAVE TO TURN IT OFF, ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS STAY ON, IT STILL DINGS IF THE DOOR IS OPEN AND ACTS LIKE THE KEY IS IN IT AFTER BEING REMOVED. NOW WE'RE RUNNING INTO MORE ISSUES WHILE WE'RE DRIVING WHERE IT STARTS GLITCHING AND THE COMPUTER MAKES ALL KINDS OF TERRIBLE SCARY SOUNDS AND HAS ACTUALLY POWERED DOWN ON US! NOW THE BATTERY IS DEAD AND WON'T START EVEN WITH A JUMP! MOST ISSUES STARTED OUT WHILE IN PARK AND JUST TRYING TO REMOVE KEY FOB, THAT LASTED A FEW MONTHS AND IT STILL DROVE FINE. UNFORTUNATELY, THE ISSUES HAVE CONTINUALLY GOTTEN WORSE AND I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT WITH MY FAMILY SINCE IT POWERED DOWN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET!

4 ISSUES: 1.VEHICLE WILL NOT RESTART RIGHT AWAY AFTER THE KEY FOB HAS BEEN TURNED OFF AND SOMETIMES I HAVE TO GET OUT AND DISENGAGE THE BATTERY FOR IT TO START AGAIN. 2. KEY FOB WILL COME OUT OF IGNITION WHEN IT IS TURNED TO ACCESSORY. 4. KEY FOB IS ABLE TO COME OUT WHEN VEHICLE IS RUNNING. 3. SOMETIMES KEY WILL NOT COME OUT OF IGNITION IF IT LOCKS UP. THERE ARE RECALLS ON THIS PROBLEM WITH JEEPS BUT FOR SOME REASON NOT MY VEHICLE. I DID HAVE IT FIXED AT THE JEEP DEALER BUT IT IS DOING THE SAME THING AFTER $600.00 . THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE WHEN THE KEY COMES OUT OF THE IGNITION BEFORE TURNING VEHICLE OFF.
