THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO PROVIDE AN EXPECTED DATE FOR THE PART TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000. UPDATED 06/18/13*LJ

CONTINUE WAITING FOR MONTHS FOR INFORMATION ON SAFETY RECALL M35/NHTSA 12V-527 CONCERNING AIR BAGS IN JEEP LIBERTY. *TR

NOTICE OF M35 RECALL RECEIVED VIA POST CARD ON 3/5/13 FROM OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THREE TIMES AND CHRYSLER COMPANY CUSTOMER SERVICE TWO TIMES TO SEE IF THE PART IS FINALLY IN TO FIX THE AIRBAG CIRCUIT SO IT WILL DEPLOY PROPERLY. NO ONE HAS AN EXPECTED DATE OF REPAIR. THE MOST RECENT CALLS WERE MADE TODAY SINCE OUR AIRBAG LIGHT IS NOW STARTING TO COME ON PERIODICALLY. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE IN LIGHT OF THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT. HASN'T ENOUGH TIME PASSED FOR THE PART TO BE MANUFACTURED SINCE THE RECALL ACTUALLY CAME OUT IN JANUARY? HELP! *TR

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE M35/NHTSA 12V-527 IN JANUARY. CALLED CHRYSLER GROUP RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER ON MAY 24 AND WAS TOLD THE PART WAS STILL NOT AVAILABLE. THEY STILL DON'T KNOW WHEN IT WILL BE. WHEN ASKED WHAT CHRYSLER SUGGESTS A PERSON SHOULD DO IF THIS IS THEIR PRIMARY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION, AND IT IS CLEARLY UNSAFE TO DRIVE IF THE AIR BAG COULD DEPLOY UNEXPECTEDLY. I WAS TOLD THAT CHRYSLER HAS NO SUGGESTIONS, AND THAT THERE HAVE BEEN NO ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES CAUSED BY THE DEFECT COVERED IN THE RECALL. AFTER READING REPORTS ON THIS WEBSITE, IT WOULD APPEAR AS IF THAT IS NOT TRUE INFORMATION. AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON WHILE VEHICLE IS RUNNING. NO FAILURE AS OF THE FILING OF THIS COMPLAINT. *TR
