On a tangent of the clock spring subject..
Wouldn't you think that since this has something to do with the airbag, meaning a safety feature on the jeep, that it would be covered?
I mean, I had mine fail as well and I had to pay $500.00 to have it replaced. I've never heard of clock springs failing on other vehicles. Why are they failing when we aren't even doing anything to make them fail??????

I can't bad mouth mine, it saved my ass by deploying the airbag just before it committed suicide. 
Looks like it going to be awhile before I get my JK back.
