The airbag light turns on and off, indicating that there is an intermittent malfunction with the airbag system. The problem is a simple part - the clock spring in the steering that connects the airbag to the control module. If the system malfunctions before or during a crash, the airbag will not deploy, and could cause serious injury or death. I am shocked that this safety issue is not being recognized or covered by Jeep!

Air bag light activated with chime for several cycles. Now air bag light stays on. Sometimes flickers / flashes, but mostly stays lit. This was on smooth pavement at highway speed.

The airbag light began coming on & going off on sat 11/17/2012. I tried calling the dealership they were closed. Called on mon. 11/19/12. Took Jeep in mon afternoon. Was told today that I would have to pay for it because it had already been replaced. I do not think that I should have to pay for this as it was a recall and had happened again. There must be something wrong or it would not go out in the first place would appreciate some help from someone. I am so upset with this Jeep that I will probably never buy another one and will suggest that no one else buy one either. I have had numerous other problems with this Jeep.
