Problems with 2006 Jeep Commander AIR BAGS

Air bag light is on

I just purchased this 2006 jeep commander and noticed after purchase the airbag indicator light came on. read later this is a common problem. did manufacturer ever put out a recall for this? is this a sensor issue?

Was driving down the road @ 40 mph & my horn started sounding non stop & kept draining my battery. turns out it is a faulty clock spring, & my vehicle only has 51k. the part to fix is retailed over $800 & you cannot get ahold of one because they are on national back order. was told chrysler will not do a recall because this vehicle is over 10 years old, but it only has 51k & this has been recalled on other jeep/chrysler models. since it is hooked to my airbag, this should be a safety issue, but chrysler does not see it that way. will never by another jeep because of this.

This might be tamara inflators. service light is on for passenger side front airbag

The door handles have completely disentegrated an the windows no longer operate. the seat belts work intermittently and the door locks unlock an lock at random. the engine starts an stops on it's own. this vehicle was my dream vehicle but now i feel totally endangered by the lack of care and design by jeep. i feel it is a ticking time bomb ready to cause danger at some point to me or my family

We have replaced the fuel pump 3 times. this last time it still does not start. the fuel pump is getting power, we traced the power all the way back to the fuel pump and it is getting power but it is not kicking on. we have been searching for wiring diagrams to trace the lines but no avail. if we get it to run if it gets shut off we cannot get it to restart sometimes for days. we have disconnected the battery at times and it will start for a time or two but it goes back to not starting again. with the air bag, the airbag light has come on in the dash and does not go out.

We have a 2006 jeep commander and it sometimes jerks back and forth while driving sometimes it even shifts into neutral and then back to drive the power steering works only part of the time and the airbag system says its off all the time and it will shut off while driving sometimes too really frustrated with this vehicle its a disaster and waiting to happen
