2013 Jeep Wrangler Airbags Problems

Your airbag warning light stays on even during normal driving, and you're concerned the airbags may not deploy if you're in a crash. Your vehicle's VIN doesn't match the current airbag recall campaign, but you're experiencing the same failure described in that recall. The exact cause hasn't been determined yet.

The contact owns a 2013 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving 50 MPH, the air bag fault message was displayed. A local dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that Chrysler Canada would honor the warranty. The vehicle was diagnosed, and it was determined that the clock spring needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and opened a case. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and transferred the contact to the warranty Headquarters located in Florida. The approximate failure mileage was 140,000.

My airbag sensor has been continually toggling on and off for a few months now. I had the car scanned at my service center and the code came up as an issue with my driver seat airbag circuit. In my research on recalls for my year vehicle, there is a recall ~NHTSA Campaign Number 16V28800 ~Components AIR BAGS ~Summary The clock spring assembly may become contaminated with dust and cause the airbag circuit to fail. Although this recall is for right hand drive and my Jeep is left hand drive, it appears it may be the same issue. Please advise as I feel unsafe driving my Jeep and will be taking it next week to service center to have it corrected . Thank you. Awaiting your reply.

Instrument airbag warning light

Recently had my traction control and air bag lights illuminate, at the same time my horn quit, steering wheel controls no longer work and cruise control is out. After some research, I am quite sure it's a faulty clock spring

Horn, evic & radio controls on the steering wheel don't work. After waiting 2 months tfor the part, they replaced the evic switch which I was promised controlled the horn & radio too. It didn't fix the horn or any of the other issues. Now the dealer wants to replace the clock spring. There is an existing recall for my model year and years before and after (Safety Recall S40 / NHTSA 16V-288 Airbag Clockspring) but my VIN is not included. Jeep can not explain why I'm not included and said my airbag may or may not work. Any help is appreciated.

The control buttons on the steering wheel for speed control and radio and menu for the odometer plus the horn started working only part-time. If you wiggle or turn the steering wheel 90 degrees sometimes everything will work. The airbag light also comes on indicating there is an airbag problem. This sometimes will go away with the right wiggle of the steering wheel. The service department said it is a bad clockspring on the steering column. There is a recall on this (S40) but not listed on my jeep. This started about 6 months ago and has gotten progressively worse.

Approximately the end of June the airbag light came on, made appointment with Red Bluff Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram 545 Adobe Road Red Bluff, CA. 96080. Phone # (530) 840-2901. The soonest they could fit me in was July 19th @ 10:00am. Invoice states as follows; 97549 1.00 verified concern of airbag lamp on has active DTC B1B02 driver airbag said #1 open. Removed airbag installed Miller 8443 SRS simulator into clockspring airbag leads DTC goes stored unplug SRS tool and reinstalled airbag lamp comes back on same DTCS. Driver airbag will need to be replaced. Dealership was unable to answer if the airbag would deploy while driving or if the airbags would even go off in an accident, its their belief the system shuts down when there is a code. I have only gone to one dealership as mentioned above. Approximately $1,000.00 for the part alone. Problem is unresolved.

TAKARA RECALL. MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT 16 W LANCASTER AVE SHILLINGTON PA 19607. I HAD IT PARKED IN THE BACK PARKING LOT. THE OWNER OF THE STORE CALLED ME TO INFORM ME THAT MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. HE HEARD IT FROM INSIDE THE STORE AND WENT OUTSIDE IMMEDIATELY TO INVESTIGATE. HE DIDNT SEE ANYONE LEAVE THE PARKING LOT AND THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE. IT WAS RAINING VERY HARD THAT DAY BUT I FEEL THAT SHOULDNT HAVE CAUSED MY AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. WHEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENED I CALLED THE FCA RECALL NUMBER AT 1-833-585-0144 AND EXPLAINED THE SITUATION. THEY HAD AN INSPECTOR CALL ME BACK AND I DROPPED MY CAR OFF AT SAVAGE 61 IN READING PA TO HAVE HIM INSPECT MY JEEP. I WAS GIVEN CASE #[XXX] AND WAS TOLD THE DEALER AUTHORIZED REPAIR TO MY AIRBAG/STEERING WHEEL. SINCE THEN I'VE BEEN TRYING TO HAVE THEM FIX MY AIRBAG. ON 3/14 I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN TO TRY AND RESOLVE AND THEY TOLD ME I'D BE PUT ON A WAITING LIST. THE RECALL WAS FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. BUT MY DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG IS THE ONE THAT DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON IT JUST WENT OFF. SINCE THIS HAS HAPPENED I'VE BEEN TRYING WITHOUT SUCCESS TO HAVE SOMEONE FIX MY JEEP. I CANT GET IT INSPECTED UNTIL MY STEERING WHEEL IS REPLACED AND IT'S MY DAILY DRIVER. I REALLY NEED SOMEONE TO HELP ME GET THIS RESOLVED ASAP SO I CAN HAVE MY JEEP INSPECTED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

"TAKATA RECALL" CALLED FISHER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP IN YUMA, AZ THEY SAID THEY CANNOT GET PARTS AND THEY SHOULD BE AVAILABLE FEBRUARY OF 2020. THAT IS A YEAR FROM NOW AND DOES NOT SEEM TO BE A REASONABLE TIME FOR A SAFETY RECALL.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK TO DEALER THEY SAID CLOCKSPRING CLOGGED WHICH SHUTS DOWN AIRBAG FUNCTIONALITY, NEED TO REPLACE CLOCKSPRING. CHECKED WEB, FOUND THAT CHRYSLER RECALLED ALL JEEPS YEAR 2007 THRU 2011(393,000) FOR DESIGN DEFECT OF CLOCKSPRING STATING IT CAN GET CLOGGED RESULTING IN INOPERABLE AIRBAG LIKE MY SON EXPERIENCED. THEN NOTICED THEY RECALLED 2011 THRU 2016 RIGHT HAND DRIVE FOR SAME DEFECT. I ASKED IF OUR CLOCKSPRING WAS SAME DESIGN WHICH RESPONSE WAS YES SO I ASKED WHY OURS WASN'T RECALLED AND COVERED BY CHRYSLER AND RESPONSE WAS IT WASN'T. IF PRODUCT IS SAME FOR ALL THOSE YEARS IT SHOULD BE RECALLED BECAUSE ACCIDENT WILL HAPPEN AND SOMEONE WILL GET SERIOUSLY HURT IF AIRBAGS DO NOT DEPLOY. CLOCKSPRING IS SAME DESIGN IN MY SON'S JEEP AS ALL THE OTHERS THAT WERE RECALLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE AIR BAG MIGHT DEPLOY.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

THE SEATBELT/AIRBAG LIGHT WENT ON AT 27000 MILES. ONE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE WIRING UNDER THE SEAT AND ANOTHER SAID IT WAS THE SEATBELT. MY MUNICIPAL MECHANIC LOOKED UP RECALL INFORMATION ON THE ISSUE AND IT SEEMS AS THOUGH MY VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED. ANY 2013 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT MADE BEFORE 7/1/2013 HAS A FAULTY SEATBELT. THIS IS CONCERNING AND I AM SCARED TO HAVE ANYONE RIDE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I AM ATTACHING THE PRODEMAND REPORT. PLEASE CONTACT ME AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THE LIGHT WENT ON WHEN I STARTED THE CAR,

WHEN YOU PULL ONTO THE ROAD IT STARTS TO HIT THE BRAKES AND WHEN YOU TRY TO HIT THE GAS IT STILL HITS THE GAS THEN THE ABS COMES ON THAN THE ANTI SLIP COMES ON AND THAN THE OTHER ONE COMES ON LIKE YOU ARE GOING DOWN THE HILL COMES ON. IT KEEPS UP HITTING MY BRAKES THAN FOR A LITTLE WHILE IT LETS UP OFF MY BRAKES BUT THE LIGHTS STAY ON.

DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG AND HORN NONOPERATIONAL.

AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON, CRUISE CONTROL (AS WELL AS ALL OTHER CONTROLS MOUNTED ON THE STEERING WHEEL) ARE INOPERABLE. THIS WAS GRADUAL; I NOTICED CRUISE CONTROL DIDN'T WORK FIRST, THEN THE REST OF THE CONTROLS INCLUDING THE AIRBAG STOPPED SHORTLY AFTER. THIS WAS DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING (A COAST-TO-COAST ROAD TRIP).

TAKATA RECALL. AIRBAGRECALL.COM TELLS ME I'M AT RISK BUT DOES NOT LIST A RECALL FOR MY VEHICLE AT THIS TIME.

CLOCK SPRING FAILURE. WHEN STATIONARY THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IS SHOWING AN AIRBAG ALERT AND ALL CONTROL BUTTONS IN THE STEERING WHEEL EXCEPT CRUSE CONTROL HAVE FAILED. WHEN THE LEFT SPOKE OF THE STEERING WHEEL IS ROTATED COUNTER CLOCKWISE TO THE 2 O'CLOCK POSITION THE AIRBAG ALERT TURNS OFF AND ALL BUTTONS WORK BUT ONLY IN THAT POSITION. NO DIFFERENCE WHEN IN MOTION EXCEPT A DING WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED PAST A CERTAIN POSITION.

AIRBAG SIGNAL FAILURE (CLOCK SPRING DUST ISSUE) 2013 JEEP WRANGLER JKU LEFT-HAND DRIVE, EXPERIENCING DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG SIGNAL FAILURE. A RECALL FOR THE SAME SYMPTOMS (RECALL #16V288000) APPLIES ONLY TO RIGHT-HAND VEHICLES ONLY. MILEAGE APPROXIMATELY 45,000.

I OWN A 2013 JEEP WRANGLER, I TAKE MY JEEP OFF-ROAD EVERY WEEKEND. LIVING IN LAS VEGAS, NV, I CAN KEEP THE TOP OFF 10 MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR. LIVING IN THE DESERT, IT'S ALSO VERY DUSTY HERE. IN MAY OF 2016, I WAS ON AN OFF-ROADING TRIP, WHEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE CLOCKSPRING. THEY QUOTED ME $700.00 TO FIX IT...I DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY, SO I PAID THEM THE $150.00 DIAGNOSTIC FEE... TWO DAYS LATER, THE FIRST RECALL FOR CLOCKSPRING CAME OUT. I CALLED THE DEALER BACK, THEY LOOKED UP MY VIN #, AND SAID MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. SINCE THEN SEVERAL MORE RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED, BUT MY VEHICLE IS STILL NOT LISTED. I DID RESEARCH ON CLOCKSPRINGS, AND FOUND OUT THE REASON THEY GO OUT IS DUE TO DUST, FREQUENT OFF-ROAD, AND REMOVING THE TOP. ALL OF WHICH DESCRIBES MY JEEP. IN ADDITION TO THE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING, THE CLOCKSPRING EFFECTS THE HORN, AS WELL AS OTHER CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAVE WRITTEN SEVERAL EMAILS TO JEEP, CHRYSLER, AND MOPAR. I HAVE DISCUSSED THIS ISSUE ON SEVERAL JEEP FORUMS SITES, ASKING FOR HELP. IF THE RECALL COVERS ONLY SOME 2013 MODELS, BUT MY MODEL MATCHES THE CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING THE RECALL ISSUE, THEN I BELIEVE MINE SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

ON MY 2013 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED (LHD), THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND CHIMES EVERY FEW MINUTES. THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AFTER I START THE ENGINE. THE LIGHT STAYS ON AND DASHBOARD CHIMES WHILE DRIVING. THIS INDICATES THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME THIS IS A FAULTY "CLOCKSPRING". THIS RAISES CONCERNS THAT MY AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT OR WILL DEPLOY PREMATURELY. DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO REPLACE THIS PART UNDER THE CURRENT RECALL. WHEN CALLING CHRYSLER, I WAS TOLD THE CURRENT RECALL IS FOR 2007 AND UP RIGHT HAND DRIVE MODELS ONLY EVEN THOUGH THEY USE THE SAME PART NUMBER. I HAD A 2007 WRANGLER (LHD) YEARS AGO THAT WAS INCLUDED IN A RECALL FOR THE CLOCKSPRING. THE RECALL WORK WAS COMPLETED ON MY PREVIOUS 2007 WRANGLER FOR THE SAME PART NUMBER. I WOULD LIKE AN ANSWER AS TO WHY MY 2013 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL IF THE SAME PART NUMBER IS THE PROBLEM. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE REPAIR WILL COST $520 WHICH I DO NOT BELIEVE I SHOULD PAY IF OTHER JEEP WRANGLERS ARE HAVING THIS JOB COMPLETED FOR FREE. IF MY SAFETY IS NOT A CONCERN, PLEASE CONSIDER THE SAFETY OF MY WIFE AND DAUGHTERS, AND MOVE TO INCLUDE ALL JEEP WRANGLER MODELS WITH CLOCKSPRING PART NUMBER 68339336AA.

WITH ONLY 58,306 MILES ON MY 2013 JEEP WRANGLER, THE CLOCK SPRING HAS FAILED AND AIR BAG SYSTEM WILL NOT DEPLOY. IN ADDITION, THIS POSES ABANDONMENT CONCERNS AS MANY USERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS FIND THEIR VEHICLE WILL NOT START. I CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP TODAY (NORTHWEST JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE) AND WAS DISMAYED AT AN ALMOST $700 REPAIR BILL TO REGAIN AIRBAG PROTECTION, EVEN THOUGH FCA HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS SAME PART NUMBER, BUT ONLY IN 2007 RHD VEHICLES.

A WEEK AGO I NOTICED WHEN I STARTED THE JEEP IN THE MORNING THE AIR BAG AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON. THE CRUISE CONTROL QUIT WORKING ALONG WITH THE RADIO CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THE JEEP IS PARKED ON THE STREET. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY FOR ABOUT 30 MIN. I RECONNECTED THE BATTERY AND STARTED IT UP. THE AIR BAGS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS WERE STILL ON IN THE DASH. THE STEERING CONTROLS DO NOT WORK. THE JEEP WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE ON THE STREET.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19,2015 AND SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 20, 2015. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THE LIGHT MEANT. MY HUSBAND, [XXX] LOOKED IN THE MANUEL AND SAW IT WAS THE AIRBAG LIGHT.
