LESS THEN 30 DAYS AGO I PURCHASED A USED 2006 JEEP CHEROKEE LAREDO 4X2. THE DEALER SAID THE AIRBAG SENSOR JUST NEEDED REPLACED NO BIG DEAL. NOW I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING AS ALOT OF OLDER PEOPLE. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT STARTED NOT LATCHING UNLESS I PRESS DOWN ON THE RED BUTTON. SO THEN THE RED SEAT BELT INDICATOR LIGHT WON'T GO OFF AND THE AUDIBLE CHIMES CONTINUOUSLY AND WILL NOT SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING NO MATTER WHAT I DO. MOVING THE SEAT BELT AROUND TO TRY AND GET THE CHIME TO STOP AS WELL AS THE AUDIBLE CHIMING WHILE DRIVING MAKES IT VERY ANNOYING AND DISTRACTING FROM THE ROAD. I NEED ANSWERS ON WHY THIS SHOULD BE AT MY COST WHEN BETWEEN THE AIRBAG AND SEAT BELT SENSORS ARE TRULY SAFETY ISSUE. THEIR IS NO WARRANTY AT 154457 MILES. PLEASE ADVISE ON THE AIRBAG RECALL ETC... THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON WHEN PURCHASED 7/18/17. THE SEAT BELT CHIMING AND LIGHT STARTED STAYING ON 8/10/17.

TAKATA INFLATOR. I PURCHASED MY JEEP AND AFTER A FEW MONTHS I NOTICE IT KEPT GETTING STUCK IN 3RD. WOULDN'T COME OUT. THEN THE MESSAGE "TRANSMISSION OVER TEMP" WOULD POP UP. IT WOULD RANDOMLY JUST LOOSE ALL POWER AND CUT OFF AS I WOULD BE DRIVING. I HAD IT LOOKED AT. CHECKED THE CODES BC CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD POP UP ALSO. MULTIPLE CODES WERE IN THE HISTORY PERTAINING TO THE ISSUE. I WAS GOING TO GET EVERYTHING FIXED UNTIL I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT JEEP FIRST BC THERE MIGHT BE SOME RECALLS THAT OTHERS WERE EXPERIENCING MY SAME PROBLEM. I WOULD OF PAID FOR IT REGARDLESS TO FIX THE PROBLEMS. IT HAD NUMEROUS RECALLS. MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO MCKINNEY DODGE IN EASLEY,SC. AFTER FIXING THE RECALLS I HAVE PAPERWORK FOR A FEW MONTHS LATER WAS DOING IT AGAIN. I WORK IN A SERVICE DEPT. SO I ASKED ONE MY TECHS IF IT WAS SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALLS AND DID I NEED TO CALL DEALERSHIP BACK. THEY SAID YES. CALLED MCKINNEY AND THEY REFUSED TO SET ME AN APPOINTMENT AND SAID THE PROBLEMS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE RECALLS THEY FIXED. AFTER HAVING SEVERAL TOWS AND STRANDED AND ALMOST WRECKING WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND JUST DIES, I'M BEYOND FRUSTRATED AND NO ONE CAN SEEM TELL ME HOW TO FIX. AFTER READING SEVERAL REVIEWS AND RECALL INFORMATION, MY ISSUES ARE EVERYTHING WITH MY RECALLS. MY AIRBAG LIGHT GO ON AND OFF ALSO. THEY NEVER TOUCHED THAT AND IT'S ALSO A RECALL. I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I NEED TO DO BC I'M NOT WAITING FOR AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH BC THIS VEHICLE. IT'S MY ONLY CAR AND I'VE TRIED TO PAY MYSELF AND HAD RECALLS FIXED AND PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. I'VE CONTACTED A LAWYER. I WANT IT FIXED OR I WANT ANOTHER VEHICLE. *TR

TAKATA RECALL. MY CAR WAS IN A WRECK THIS PASS SEPTEMBER 17 AND THE AIR BAGS GOT DEPLOYED.MY MOTHER IN LAW WAS INJURED IN HER HEAD AND IT LOOK LIKE THE BAGS THROUGH SOME SORT OF METAL WITH WHITE POWDER.I HAVE NO CLUE IF THIS WAS NORMAL .BUT MY CAR SMELLED LIKE BURNED ..I HAS GONE TO GEEP IN 2015 TO GET ENGINE TUNE UP.AND I ASKED ABOUT TAKATA RECALL AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE WORKING ON IT .AND THE WOULD CALL ME BACK .WELL THEY NEVER DID. NOW THAT MY CAR SUFFERED THIS HORRIBLE ACCIDENT I WANT TO KNOW WHY THEY NEVER DID WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO DO. THE ACCIDENT HAPPEN AT AN INTERSECTION MY CAR WAS TURNING ON A GREEN LIGHT AND ANOTHER VEHICLE RUNED OVER A RED LIGHT AND HIT US. MY AIR BAGS DIPLOID AND THAT'S WEN I SAW THIS WEIRD SMELL AND STILL FEEL LIKE I HAVE SOMETHING IN EYES. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT I HAVE TO AFTER THIS AND WHAT STEPS TO TAKE .

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT WITH MY 2006 GRAND CHEROKEE. THE ACCIDENT WAS DUE TO THE IGNITION SWITCH AND THE VEHICLE POWERING DOWN WHILE IN DRIVE, OR IN USE. INJURIES WERE SUFFERED DUE TO THE AIRBAG'S NONE DEPLOYMENT. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND ATTEMPTING TO HAVE TWO RECALLS REPLACED, I WAS TOLD THERE PRESENTLY WAS NO AVAILABLE FIX, OR REPLACEMENT FOR RECALL P41. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED IN 2015 AT FITZPATRICK'S CHRYSLER JEEP (430 E MAIN STREET, ANSONIA, CT 06401 (203) 734-3318) FOR RECALLS P41(IGNITION SWITCH) & N23(POWERTRAIN TRANSFER CASE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). IN JANUARY OF 2012 WITH 37K ON THE VEHICLE THERE WAS THE FIRST OF TWO ACCIDENTS THAT RELATE TO RECALL P41. THIS ACCIDENT WAS DUE TO UNRESPONSIVE BRAKING AND STEERING, WHICH WAS CAUSED BY THE IGNITION SWITCH MOVING FROM THE ON POSITION TO THE OFF POSITION WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVE, OR IN USE. THIS ACCIDENT HAPPENED WHEN ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE (RTE. 80 EAST HAVEN, CT) I NOTICED THE VEHICLE WAS UNRESPONSIVE. I USED BOTH FEET AND HANDS TO APPLY THE BREAKS, WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY WRAPPING BOTH HANDS AROUND THE LOWER HALF OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND PULLING UPWARD WITH MY BICEPS TO APPLY ADDITIONAL DOWNWARD MOMENTUM TO THE BREAK PEDAL, BUT STILL I COULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED AND OUT POCKET COSTS FOR THIS ACCIDENT TOTAL OVER $7000 DOLLARS. THE SECOND ACCIDENT HAPPENED IN 2016. NOT REALIZING THE VEHICLE WAS OFF WHILE ATTEMPTING TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A FULL STOP ON THE HIGHWAY (RTE.15 NO HAVEN, CT.), I HAD A COLLISION. THE FORCE OF THE IMPACT SLAMMED MY FACE INTO THE STEERING WHEEL. I WAS DAZED AND CONFUSED, WONDERING, WHY HADN'T THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THIS IS THE SECOND INCIDENT I'VE HAD WITH THIS VEHICLE THAT WAS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE IGNITION SWITCH. AND, IN BOTH ACCIDENTS AIRBAGS WERE NEVER DEPLOYED. ANY ASSISTANCE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
