Takata recall: Not sure how long a occupancy restraint module should last, but I know mine apparently is 7 years with 77,300 miles on it. May 10th, 2017 I had been driving my car all day, we made a stop at kroger and when we got into the vehicle the airbag light came on. Nothing we could do that night, so we went to a birthday dinner and while driving there it stayed on. Came out after we were finished the light had turned off. I turned the vehicle on to leave work on Tuesday May 16, 2017 and the light had come on again. We called the service center to get it in and the service center had said the occupancy restraint module was faulty but they didn't understand why. After some research I found other Jeep models with the same defect and was recalled. Also, the same model but different years were recalled. The service center advised that it would be a possibility that if I crashed I could be ejected from the car, and the airbags may not deploy.

During rainy weather, driving the speed limit, the front passenger side tire felt that it was going unstable. Tried controlling the vehicle when it veered towards the right. Lost control of the vehicle and went into a ditch for a almost thirty feet. Was finally able to stop when crashed into a tre. Side airbags deployed but not the front air bag. Injuries to my head, neck and shoulder.

For no reason, the airbag warning light came on. Though there is warranty, they are telling us it isn't covered under warranty. I will never buy another Chrysler vehicle as long as I live. There have been other instances that should have been covered but we were lied to regarding the extended warranty coverage added...enough said.
