There was a news article about 2007-10 wranglers being recalled for driver's air bag issues. On the Jeep owner's center my 2012 shows a recall for passenger side air bag. Anyone else seeing this? Maybe were all getting new air bags!

Got the recall notice for our 2007 JKU purchased Oct 2006, however the recall does state parts not yet available.

Hey

While they're gonna be working to fix what's wrong, can I have them switch steering wheel to a new one with controls for radio? I have a 2008 JKUS with 730N RER

Does it just connect direct or will it be a harness issue?

Thanks

Yep got mine over the weekend.

(none)

Since the airbag itself it is the issue, I assume they are replacing it. Hope my jeep doesn't burn down from the uncompleted mirror recall before they figure out parts...
