Takata recall - scheduled appointment at dealership to deal with takata recall. I received a call back stating that they would have to put me on a wait list that could be months for the part to be in stock so I could have the repair done. I should not have to wait months for a part on a vehicle that has been designated to be dangerous to drive in the event of a crash.

I have been experiencing the "death wobble" the first time when it was only a year old with 10,000 miles. It was brief and I attributed the issue to road conditions. It happened again around 20,00 miles. It was brief and again on the same freeway attributed to road conditions. I recently experienced it again at 39,000 miles - it was so severe, and violent, shaking the entire vehicle- it was extremely difficult to control the vehicle. I made an appointment at the dealership. The diagnosis was a cracked drag link assembly, need front stabilizer shocks, and rear shocks. On top of that they said there is a crack in the radiator, believed to be from the violent shaking. It's no longer under warranty, with only 39,000 miles - 3,000 miles over and they won't do anything. I have been a long time customer at planet Jeep in flagstaff, AZ. This has been a horrible experience. I will never go back there and won't recommend.

I was involved in a front end motor vehicle collision, with another motor vehicle incident, to wit the front driver side airbag never deployed appropriately. Where in which I received injury from the collision accident. As a result of the collision incidents, I further inquired with the dealership service departments maintenance personnel, and was informed, that the deployment contact switch located on the front of my 2015 Jeep Wrangler, was located in the front grill area, and not located in the front bumper area. Recently back in the fall of 2016, I received notice from Fiat Chrysler Jeep corporation. That my 2016 Jeep Wrangler airbag deployment system had a recall issue. Which further stated, let airbag deployment systems ranging back to 2012 Jeep Wrangler, extending to 2017 Jeep Wrangler. Please be advised that as a result of my 2015 Jeep Wrangler collision which ended up in a total loss. I had to pursue another vehicle, hence my 2016 Jeep Wrangler, airbag deployment system recall notice. Further be advised, that when I had to shop again for another motor vehicle, to wit my 2016 Jeep Wrangler. I had asked the dealership sales person, if the airbag deployment system had ever changed from the 2015 Jeep Wrangler, to the 2016 Jeep Wrangler" where in which I was informed that the same airbag deployment systems in the 2015 Jeep Wrangler's were the same in the 2016 Jeep Wrangler. Where, given the fact that motor vehicle airbag recalls by other manufacturing companies, are being called into question" it is my contention, that the 2015 Jeep Wrangler airbag appointment system then I had owned at the time of the collision, was defective as well. Please feel free to contact me anytime regarding this issue, or anything else related to this issue. Respectfully submitted
