Grand Cherokee

  • 18,000 miles
The contact owns a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The contact stated that the front passenger's side air bag deployed erroneously and without warning while the contact was driving 45 mph. The failure burned the wires and caused the electrical system to fail. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and the manufacture sent an engineer to inspect the failure. The engineer concluded that the inadvertent air bag deployment was not caused by a manufacturing defect, although the engineer did not provide a specific cause for the failure.

Grand Cherokee

  • 35,500 miles
Airbag light keeps coming on. Am told that this indicates that the airbag restraint system is not working. Have taken it in to the Jeep dealer several times and they think it has to do with the remote starter that was installed by the same Jeep dealer, yet that was almost 2 months ago but the problem still persists.
