What Happened

The clockspring assembly in your Jeep Wrangler is a critical component that helps your air bag deploy in a crash. Over time, it can get clogged with dust and fail, stopping the air bag from working.

Risk if Unfixed

If the air bag circuit fails, your driver's frontal air bag won't deploy in a crash, which could lead to serious injury to you or your passenger.

How to Get This Fixed
