Jeep Wrangler: Airbag And/or Pretensioner May Fail To Deploy In A Collision
Jeep Wrangler Recall Summary Jeep is recalling 235 Wrangler vehicles because front impact sensor wires may disconnect during a crash before the airbag system receives the signal to deploy. This could prevent airbags and seat belt pretensioners from working properly in a collision. The fix involves rerouting and securing the wiring harness in the front end module.
