I OWN A 2002 JEEP LIBERTY WHICH HAD THE M35 RECALL. "AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT". I HAD THE RECALL PATCH DONE. I HAVE READ THAT THE RECALL PATCH DOESN'T FIX THE DEPLOYMENT ISSUE AND THAT THE NHTSA IS TRACKING THE ISSUES THAT ARE STILL HAPPENING AFTER THE RECALL REPAIR. ON 10-14-2014 THIS HAPPENED TO MY LIBERTY. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *GEM

WE HAD THE M35 RECALL DONE AT SOUTH POINT CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE IN TULSA OK ON APPROXIMATELY AUGUST 2, 2014. ON SEPTEMBER 18, 2014 MY DAUGHTER WAS INVOLVED IN A HIGHWAY INTERSECTION ACCIDENT WHERE HER CAR SUSTAINED FRONT END DAMAGE SO BAD IT WAS TOTALED. SHE WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10MPH AND THE OTHER CAR WAS GOING 65MPH. NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WHEN THE COLLISION HAPPENED. THE OTHER CARS AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THAT CAR WAS TOTALED ALSO. I HAVE SEVERAL PICTURES OF MY DAUGHTERS CAR IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE COLLISION. THE POLICE, FIRE DEPARTMENT AND OKLAHOMA HIGHWAY PATROL ALL WERE SURPRISED HER AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. SUBSEQUENTLY SHE HAS SUSTAINED A CONCUSSION AND IS HAVING TO HAVE SEVERAL MRIS AND CT SCANS DUE TO THE CAR ACCIDENT. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY HER AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT IMPACT. I THOUGHT THIS RECALL WAS SUPPOSE TO TAKE CAR OF AIRBAGS FROM DEPLOYING INADVERTENTLY BUT DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD CAUSE THEM TO NOT FUNCTION AT ALL. ..UPDATED 07-08-15 *BF *TR *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V252000 (FUEL SYSTEM). THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND NO ESTIMATED TIME TO RECEIVING THE PARTS COULD BE PROVIDED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

THE FRONT DRIVE SHAFT AND DIFFERENTIAL ASSEMBLY LOCKED UP CAUSING THE CAR TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND SMOKE FROM OIL COMING FROM THE BUSTED SEAL . LUCKILY THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO STOP IMMEDIATELY ON A BUSY INTERSTATE. THIS IS VERY UNCOMMON ACCORDING TO 2 DEALERS AND 3 REPAIR GARAGES, OBVIOUSLY A DEFECTIVE PART. THERE HAD BEEN NO LEAKAGE IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS OR SHAKING/SWAYING WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED CHECKED AND THERE HAS BEEN A BACK ORDER ON THIS PART FROM DODGE FOR THE PAST 3-4 MONTHS SO THERE SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM. WE WERE LUCKY THIS DEFECTIVE PART DID NOT CAUSE A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT I CALLED CHRYSLER THEY SAID THIS HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED, BUT REITERATED THIS WAS VERY UNCOMMON. *TR

I TOOK MY SAFETY RECALL NOTICE N46 TO CAROLINA CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP IN ELIZABETH CITY ON 5/13/14 AND WAS ADVISED THAT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

I WAS TOLD THEY HAD THE PART BUT NOT THE HARDWARE TO PUT IT ON AND THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY GOT EVERYTHING. I HAVE NOT HEARD FROM ANYONE THERE AS OF THIS DATE. *TR
