Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)DURING THE EVENING OF OCTOBER 16, 2019 WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 84 NEAR THE EAGLE ROAD EXIT 46 WITH MY 5 YEAR OLD GRANDSON, MY JEEP HAD A CATASTROPHIC ELECTRICAL FAILURE. I COULD NOT GET THE TURN SIGNALS, HEADLIGHTS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, OR HORN TO WORK. LATER I LEARNED THAT AT LEAST THE DRIVERS AIR BAG WAS ALSO INOPERABLE. THE NEXT MORNING MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER (LARRY H MILLER, BOISE, ID) DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A FAILURE OF THE 'CLOCK SPRING' THE SERVICE MANAGER CALLED ME AND SAID THAT DUE TO THE ONGOING RECALL OF CERTAIN RIGHT HAND DRIVE JEEP WRANGLERS (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS:16V288000, 13V176000, AND 11V528000, ALL INVOLVING THE CLOCK SPRING) A NEW, REDESIGNED, CLOCK SPRING IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR NON-RECALLED VEHICLES. HE TO INSTALL AT MY EPENSE A NEW CLOCK SPRING, BUT OF THE OLD DESIGN, WHICH WOULD EVENTUALLY FAIL.
