Air bags, side/windowOct 19, 2015
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2003 Jeep Liberty vehicles manufactured March 29, 2003, to July 3, 2003, and 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured May 27, 2003, to May 20, 2004. Due to electrical noise beyond the tolerance of the air bag electronic control module (ECM), a component in the ECM may fail, causing the front air bags, side air bags, and/or seatbelt pretensioners to deploy inadvertently while the vehicle is being operated.
Inadvertent deployment of the air bags may increase the risk of injury and the possibility of a vehicle crash.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the air bag electronic control module and the side impact sensors, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on May 5, 2016. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is R60.

The remedy for affected Liberty vehicles is expected to be available in April 2013. The remedy for affected Grand Cherokee vehicles is expected to be available later in the year.

THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE BRACKET UNDER THE DRIVERS SEAT BROKE/SNAPPED IN HALF TURNING MY DRIVERS SEAT INTO A ROCKING CHAIR MAKING IT VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. BRACKET SNAPPED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. SEAT JUST DROPPED TWO INCHES TO THE RIGHT WHILE DRIVING. NOW, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT A COLLISION AND THEN THE SEAT JUST FLYING OFF TURNING ME INTO A CRASH TEST DUMMY. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED IN 2013 SO I WENT TO A JUNK YARD AND PURCHASED A REPLACEMENT SEAT AND HAD THE ENTIRE SEAT REPLACED. NOW, THREE YEARS LATER I HAVE TO GO THRU THE SAME PROCESS AND HOPE THE JUNKYARD CAN GET ME ANOTHER SEAT. THIS IS A JOKE REALLY THAT THIS ISSUE HAS NOT CAUSED A RECALL ON THE 2004 JEEP. AFTER READING THE FORUMS ON THE WEB, SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT IT. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT, THE SEAT IS GOING TO FAIL AND CHRYSLER IS GOING TO GET SUED, BIG-TIME. *TR
