While my vehicle was sitting in our driveway, the AHR for the drivers seat activated. while at the time I had not received a notice " that im aware of" this could have been a very bad ending for this hitting my head while driving. although the recall showing is for the AHR not working, this one did it all by it self. NOT safe.
Horn stopped working. Tested actual horn another way and it operates properly but when driving it does not work Someone mentioned it could be the clock spring. Is this covered under warranty or other reports of this malfunctioning for a recall?
Transmission failure due to not being replaced when scheduled for maintenance

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON AND IS IN "LIMBO" WILL NOT DEPLOY IF IN ACCIDENT
We were involved in an accident on the NY State Thruway 87. The airbags did not deploy and the seatbelts did not engage. If the airbags had deployed my husband would not have been injured as seriously as he was.
THREE YEARS AGO MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING MY JEEP. SHE HAD A FRONT END COLLISION WITH A BUILDING. THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. SHE LITERALLY DROVE INSIDE THE BUILDING. NOW MY CURRENT COMPLAINT IS THAT SUDDENLY THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS COMING ON AND GOING OFF RANDOMLY.
MY DAUGHTER WAS RUN OFF THE ROAD IN HER JEEP LIBERTY ON A HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 70MPH.. SHE HIT A GUARD RAIL AND ROLLED THE JEEP. THE ONLY AIR BAG THAT DEPLOYED WAS THE STEERING WHEEL ONE AND IT ONLY CAME OUT AFTER SHE STOPPED ROLLING. NONE OF THE OTHER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED!!! THANKFULLY SHE IS ONLY BRUISED ALL OVER HER BODY. HER SEATBELT IS WHAT SAVED HER. LUCKILY THAT WORKED. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP ABOUT THIS AND HAVEN'T HEARD BACK YET.
