I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT AND UPON THE LIGHT TURNING GREEN I TURNED TO THE RIGHT AND WAS ABOUT TO MERGE INTO THE LEFT LANE WHEN BOTH AIRBAGS EXPLODED FOR NO REASON. NO ONE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT NOR WAS THERE ANY OTHER CARS CLOSE BY THAT I COULD HAVE HIT. THE BAG BURST WITH SUCH FORCE THAT I SAW STARS FOR A SECOND. DAMAGE LEFT ME WITH A BRUISED CHEEK, CUT ARM AND BRUISED HAND ALONG WITH A SORE CHEST PAIN. THE SMELL AND SMOKE FROM THE AIR BAG FILLED MY VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH I COULD STILL SEE IT WAS FOGGY. IT HAPPENED RIGHT NEAR MY HOME SO I WAS ABLE TO PARK THE CAR. THE SOUND WAS LIKE SOMEONE WAS SHOOTING A GUN AT MY CAR. THE RESULT IS CHRYSLER DOES HAVE A RECALL ON THESE AIRBAGS, THEY HAVE MY VEHICLE BUT ARE UNABLE TO FIND THE PARTS TO MAKE REPAIRS. THE FORCE WAS SO HARD THAT IT DAMAGED MY WHOLE DASHBOARD. CHRYSLER DEALER NOW HAS MY CAR AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THEY WILL NEED TO DO AN INVESTIGATION ON "THEIR RECALLED AIRBAGS" AND DO NOT KNOW WHEN OR IF THEY WILL BE ABLE TO GET MY CAR FIXED NOR ARE THEY WILLING TO PROVIDE ME WITH TRANSPORTATION DURING THIS TIME.

ON MARCH 8, 2016, WHILE DRIVING NORTHBOUND ON INTERSTATE 49 IN HARRISONVILLE, MO, THE ENGINE SPEED RACED WHEN TAKEN OFF CRUISE CONTROL. THE JEEP STAYED AT HIGHWAY SPEED -- ABOVE 60MPH -- AND EVEN PRESSING THE BRAKES DID NOT SLOW DOWN THE JEEP. THE ONLY WAY I WAS ABLE TO GET THE JEEP UNDER CONTROL WAS TO TURN OFF THE ENTIRE ENGINE IGNITION. ONLY BY EXERTING EFFORT TO OVERCOME AND COMPENSATE FOR THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES WAS I ABLE TO COAST TO A SAFE STOP OFF THE HIGHWAY. THE TOW OPERATOR WHO RESPONDED ATTEMPTED TO START THE ENGINE BUT FOUND THE SAME RESULT ' RUNAWAY ENGINE REVS. THE JEEP WAS TOWED TO DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT EVENING. THE NEXT MORNING, SERVICE ADVISOR INVESTIGATED AND DETERMINED THAT THE THROTTLE PEDAL WAS STUCK DOWN TO THE FLOOR. HE LOOSENED IT BY MANIPULATION. THE THROTTLE BUTTERFLY VALVE WAS FOUND TO BE STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION BY A SHREDDED PIECE OF RUBBER THAT FLAKED OFF THE RESONATOR BODY INTAKE CONNECTOR. SERVICE DEPARTMENT PERFORMED: 'RUBBER FROM INTAKE SEAL STUCK THROTTLE BODY. REMOVED DEBRIS'. THE TECHNICIAN SHOWED ME THE PIECE OF SHREDDED RUBBER AND GAVE IT TO ME. I KEPT IT, AND THE ENTIRE DEFECTIVE RESONATOR BODY, IN MY POSSESSION. THERE MAY BE OTHER REPORTS OF RUNAWAY ENGINE REVS BUT THIS INSTANCE SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO THE DESIGN OF THE RESONATOR INTAKE PATHWAY. ALTHOUGH MY JEEP HAS 246,289 MILES ON IT, THE DEFECT WAS NOT A RESULT OF WEAR BUT SEEMS TO BE RESULT OF DEFECTIVE DESIGN. THE INTAKE AIR PATHWAY IS SUBJECT TO SHREDDING RUBBER PARTS WHICH CAN COME LOOSE, ENTER THE INTAKE AIR PATHWAY AND BLOCK THE THROTTLE BUTTERFLY. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN UNNECESSARILY HAZARDOUS DESIGN.
