I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH AND A LADY PULL OUT IN FRONT OF ME TO CROSS OVER THE INTERSECTION. MY JEEP HIT HER VEHICLE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND MY HOOD FLEW UP INTO THE WINDSHIELD, BUMPER FELL OFF THE VEHICLE AND ENTIRE SIDE PANEL WAS RIPPED BACK TO THE DOOR AND NEITHER OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I FELT LIKE THIS WAS UNUSUAL DUE TO THE DAMAGE, SO I WANTED TO RESEARCH THE PROBLEM. THE ESTIMATE SO FAR TO FIX MY VEHICLE IS OVER $7,000. NO ONE WAS INJURED.*AK

I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT WHAT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER. I HAVE A 2002 JEEP WRANGLER THAT NOW NEEDS A CLOCK SPRING REPAIR. MY HORN WAS NOT WORKING WHEN I TRIED TO USE,THEN MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. THIS HAS CAUSED MY AIR BAG SYSTEM NOT TO WORK AND IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE COST IS $300.00 AND I FEEL REALLY SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AS FAR AS ALL AIR BAGS. DUE TO ITS SAFETY OF THE DRIVER AND WHAT THESE CLOCK SPRINGS ARE DOING IN THE CHRYSLER VEHICLES! THIS SHOULD BE A REPAIR COVERED BY CHRYSLER.. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND TOLD THEM I FOUND A SAFETY BULLETIN #0801001 THAT WARNED ABOUT CLOCK SPRINGS IN MY WRANGLER AND JEEP LIBERTY. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO BULLETIN. I FOUND THE BULLETIN ON YOUR WEB SITE. I WOULD LIKE YOUR INPUT PLEASE. THANKS .MIKE. *NM

DAUGHTER INVOLVED IN SINGLE CAR ACCIDENT IN WHICH 2002 JEEP WRANGLER ROLLED OVER 3 TIMES AND LANDED NOSE DOWN IN DITCH. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. COMPLAINT WAS ISSUED TO CHRYSLER, THEY STATED THAT THE FRONT END HAS TO BE HIT JUST RIGHT BEFORE AIR BAGS ARE DEPLOYED. MY DAUGHTER WAS ALMOST KILLED AND DON'T BELIEVE THAT STATEMENT WAS TRUE. I FEEL IT IS IN FACT FAULTY EQUIPMENT AND AFTER READING THESE REPORTS , I FEEL THAT SOME KIND OF COMPENSATION IS DUE. MY DAUGHTER IS STILL SUFFERING BAD HEAD ACHES AND BACK PAINS. I ASKED FOR $50,000. AND WAS IGNORED. *LA

I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT IN OCTOBER 2002 WITH MY 2002 JEEP WRANGLER X. I HIT THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME GOING ABOUT 40MPH, AND WAS THEN HIT FROM BEHIND. NEITHER AIRBAG DEPLOYED, NOR DID THE SEAT BELT TIGHTEN. I HIT MY HEAD ON THE STEARING WHEEL.

I WAS IN ANOTHER ACCIDENT AUGUST 8, 2003. SOMEONE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME ON THE HIGHWAY AND I HIT HIM GOING ABOUT 55 MPH. THE AIRBAGS AGAIN DID NOT DEPLOY.
