What owners wrote
My son was killed while he had his girlfriend drove my jeep. They ran into tree going appox.35 MPH.the airbag did not go off on the passenger side and the seatbelt unlatched. He was the only one injured and died later that day.
Occupant restraint control recall - I just had this part replaced at a jeep dealership. When I turned my vehicle on, I noticed that both the airbag and seatbelt lights are still on. I immediately went back into the dealership and spoke with the service employee and they stated that they were only authorized to replace the module and refused to tell me whether the problem was resolved or if my airbags are properly functioning.
