TAKA AIRBAGS, TIPM FUSE BOX. COMPLETELY DISABLES THE VEHICLE. THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT AND HAVE BEEN RUNNING THIS PART IN MANY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP VEHICLES SINCE 1995.MY CAR IS A 2007. IT RECKON HAVOCK ON THE WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE DEALER MILKS ALL OF YOUR 260 SOMTHING SENSORS BEFORE REPLACING THE TIPM, TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. AND THE SWAY BAR DISCONNECT IS PRONE TO WATER DAMAGE AND SHORTING OUT BECAUSE THEY LET WATER IN THE ASSEMBLY AND SHORT OUT THEN THEY CHARGE YOU 1400 DOLLARS FOR A NEW ONE. WHEN IT IS JUST THE ACTUATOR. A MANUAL OVERRIDE IS ONLY 89.00.ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS ARE FROM THE CAN BUSE C. 90 %OF THIS VEHICLE PROBLEMS ARE FROM THIS CAN BUSE C. BUT NO RECALL ON THE TIPM, SWAY BAR ACTUATOR, OR CAN BUSE C COMMUNICATION. THIS WHOLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHOULD BE A RECALL. IT IS GARBAGE. OVER COMPLICATED AND UNDER NESASARY! DRIVING DONE THE FREEWAY AND THE WHOLE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP I PULLED OVER TURNED CAR OFF AND THEN WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON. GOES IN TO A LIMP MODE. I WAS WORRIED THAT IT WOULD SHUT OFF OR WORSE CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR LEAVE ME STRANDED IN THE FREEWAY! THE AIRBAG RECALL COULD SET THE AIRBAG OF WILE DRIVING CAUSING YOU TO CRASH.

TAKATA RECALL - IT HAS ALMOST BEEN A YEAR SINCE THE TAKATA RECALL WAS ANNOUNCED. IN THAT TIME, I HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED BY JEEP ONCE. AS IT APPEARS THAT THE WRANGLER IS THE ONLY VEHICLE IN THEIR LINE THAT IS AFFECTED, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED. I HAVE A 2007 WRANGLER AND LIVE IN ALABAMA WHICH IS "ZONE A" FOR THE RECALL. I HAVE A COLLEAGUE THAT HAS A SIMILAR AGED VEHICLE FROM TOYOTA THAT WAS TOLD TO PARK THE CAR AND WAS PROVIDED WITH A LOANER BY TOYOTA UNTIL A FIX WAS AVAILABLE BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIAL DANGER. AS THIS IS THE VEHICLE THAT I USE TO DRIVE MY CHILD TO AND FROM SCHOOL, THIS CONCERNS ME. IT SEEMS THAT JEEP IS MAKING NO EFFORT TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM, AND I AM LEFT PUTTING PASSENGERS OF MY VEHICLE IN DANGER. ANY EFFORT TO CONTACT JEEP HAVE RESULTED IN NO RESPONSE. I WOULD MUCH PREFER TO HAVE THE AIRBAG DISABLED AND/OR REMOVED UNTIL A FIX IS AVAILABLE RATHER THAN A POTENTIAL HAZARD FOR MY CHILD. EVEN A NEW INFLATOR THAT IS NO SO OLD WOULD BE A BETTER TEMPORARY FIX. I WOULD APPRECIATE SEEING SOME ACTION ON JEEP'S PART OR SOME ACTION ON THE PART OF NHTSA TO FORCE THE ISSUE.

JUST AS ALL THE OTHER 2007 JEEP WRANGLERS MY CLOCKSPRING HAS GONE BAD AND MY AIRBAGS AND HORN MALFUNCTION CONSTANTLY. I FILED A REPORTS YEARS AGO BUT THAT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN REMOVED. I SEE THAT THE 2008 JEEP WRANGLERS HAD THIS RECALLED, BUT 2007 JEEPS WERE NOT GOOD ENOUGH. GUESS OUR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF OUR FAMILIES DON'T MEAN SQUAT.

AIRBAGS- ON JAN 06, 2016 I WAS INVOLVED IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT IN MY 07 JEEP JK THE IMPACT WAS AT 35 MILES PER HOUR AND CONDITIONS WET (RAIN). A VEHICLE FAILED TO YIELD AND WE IMPACTED, HOWEVER, OUR AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE OTHER VEHICLES AIRBAGS DID. THE DAMAGE WAS MODERATE AND CHEVY TAHOE RECEIVED MORE SEVERE DAMAGE. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH CHRYSLER AND THEY ARE INSPECTING THE VEHICLE. I AM VERY CONCERNED, MY WIFE AND DAUGHTER WERE VERY SORE AFTER THIS ACCIDENT AND ALL WORE THEIR SEAT BELTS, WIFE IS AFRAID TO DRIVE HER JEEP NOW AND SAYS IT IS NOT SAFE. CAIR #28562532.

ON THE 2007 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FLASHES ON EVERY OTHER MINUTE WITH A CHIME, AN INDICATION THAT THERE IS SOMETHING MALFUNCTIONING OR INTERFERING WITH THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS. THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE AND CONCERN FOR MANY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS, INCLUDING MYSELF, AND HAS BEEN SHOWN TIME AND TIME AGAIN TO BE CAUSED BY A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING WITHIN THE VEHICLE'S STEERING WHEEL. THIS FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS THE CULPRIT FOR POTENTIAL AIRBAG FAILURE IN THE 2007 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DURING AN ACCIDENT OR PREMATURE DEPLOYMENT WHEN SIMPLY DRIVING AROUND. DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY CONCERN OF THEIR FAULTY CLOCKSPRING THAT CAN CAUSE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS FROM PROPERLY DEPLOYING. I WILL PREFER TO GET CONTACTED BY EMAIL.

2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4X4 SAFARI WITH ESP (ELECTRONIC STABILITY PROGRAM). ESP INTERMITTENTLY TURNS ON BY ITSELF AND CAN'T BE TURNED OFF. IT WILL EVENTUALLY TURN ITSELF OFF. DEALER TELLS ME IT'S CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN, WHICH ALSO CONTROLS THE STEERING WHEEL AIR BAG, CRUISE CONTROL AND THE HORN! I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, IF ANY OF THESE DEVICES QUIT WORKING, BECAUSE OF A DEFECTIVE CLOCK SPRING!!!!
