Liberty

The clock spring on this Jeep has broken and has been broken for more than two months. This has disabled the horn, ABS system, cruise control, vehicle stability program and most importantly the driver's airbag. This is a known problem to Jeep and they are doing nothing about it. They just continue to say the part is on back order. This is unsafe and someone must force a mandatory immediate solution.

I was involved in a roll over accident on July 8, 2012. I was heading South through a green light while a red van going West ran through a red light hitting me on my drivers side making me T-bone and roll three times. I was wearing my seat belt but none of my airbags deployed. My Jeep was a total loss. I came out of the accident with a broken thumb and wipe lash.

Liberty 4WD 6-cyl

The contact owns a 2006 Jeep Liberty. The contact stated that the driver's side front air bag light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was advised that the failure was caused by a failing clock spring, which would need to be replaced. The dealer also advised the contact that the air bag possibly would not deploy in the event of a crash or could possibly deploy inadvertently and without warning. The contact spoke with the manufacturer and but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was unknown, but the current mileage was 69,000.....updated 10/11/12 updated 10/15/2012

Liberty 6-cyl

While driving down the freeway at 65 miles an hour both the driver and passenger airbags deployed without warning or any apparent reason. We were able to safely pull off the road and as soon as the smoke cleared from the vehicle we drove it to the nearest Jeep dealer they are currently looking at it but haven't got back to us yet.
