I was involved in a single vehicle accident at 5 am on October 5, 2023 on a rural road in Deland, Florida. I was on an unfamiliar road with a sharp curve and as I was trying to slow down the I was unable to slow down or steer the vehicle. It slammed into a cluster of trees and immediately the engine caught fire. I crawled out of the vehicle in pain from the force of the crash and was disoriented. A good Samaritan came to my aide and called the Volusia County Sherriff. I can remember my 2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude was fully engulfed in very intense flames in less than 8 minutes. It was so intense it set fire to the wooded area. This wasn't the first problem I had with this vehicle. I purchased this vehicle new from a dealer in Bowie, MD in 2019. Since that time I replaced all 4 tires due to numerous flat tires starting around 20K miles. I replaced the battery at less than 25K miles. I had braking issues when going downhill in the Washington DC area which caused me to brake hard. I complained and the dealer said they did an inspection. I also had other auto service companies perform checks. I have most of the service records which have cost me so much. I am a disable Gulf War Veteran on a fixed income. I am now waiting for VIN verification by GEICO because the vehicle burned so hot that the engine block and everything metal (melted). Had I not gotten out so soon I would have burned to death.

Airbags did not deploy during MVA to passenger side front door that resulted in totaling of the vehicle
Airbags didn't deploy when I was hit by another driver whose speed was greater than 35mph n the other driver didn't break or slow down when hitting me on the driver n left passenger doors. I requested for my insurance company to preserve the vehicle for inspection but I don't know how long they can hold it because it was determined a TOTAL LOSS. When I was hit NONE of my airbags deployed n because of that, left side of my head n shoulder were slammed into driver's door. The vehicle was inspected by my insurance n a certified mechanic n due to impact n location of damage done to vehicle, both parties determined vehicle was TOTAL LOSS n couldn't b repaired. There were no warnings lamps or ANY messages n other symptoms of the problem prior to deployment failure.
Was involved in a t-boned accident where the front end of my jeep stuck a vehicle in the side. The collision sensor did not activate nor did the air bags deploy. The other vehicle involved had airbags that deployed. The jeep is at my residence for inspection. With airbags not performing properly (faulty) this did not keep the upper body from jilting forward which causes head and shoulder issues. Insurance has not investigated neither did police. There was no warning lights or messages indicating that there was a problem prior to the accident.
Hard impact to front of car during an accident, car was totaled by insurance, air bag did not deploy on drivers side. No issues with the car or warning lights on before the accident. No indication the air bag was not working properly.
I was driving under the speed limit at night after work and a bull Elk piped out running at fun speed. I barely had a chance to put my foot on the break. I had to a head on collision. My 2019 Jeep trailhawk front airbag deployed. My driver side knee air bag blew my ACL. I no longer have one in my right knee. I have to get a new ACL from a donor “Cadaver” from my understanding the brand of knee airbag are recall. Takata brand. They explode when deployed. It caused multiple problems in my leg. I can’t walk
The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Cherokee. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 55 - 60 MPH, the vehicle crashed into a deer. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. The contact sustained chest and back pain, but her daughter did not sustain any injuries. No medical attention was received. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a body shop and was not yet deemed totaled by the insurance company. The dealer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 81,555.
On Monday January 24, 2022 I was hit by a pickup truck and my steering wheel airbag did not deploy or inflate hardly at all. From inside and around that airbag it was what looked like smoke and it burned my coat and parts of my body. I also hit my nose and face on the steering wheel.
I was recently involved in a car accident in the beginning of December. A truck pulled out in front of me when I was going 50 mph and I hit him in the side and it caused a significant amount of damage to the my vehicle. The other persons insurance company totaled my vehicle because of the amount of damage. However, we were surprised that the airbags didn’t deploy. Nothing has been confirmed to have been wrong with them but hasn’t been looked into. The vehicle was just taken to a colission center for estimates. It could have helped with the impact. My knees hit the dash pretty hard, enough to bruise pretty bad and cause pain for a few days

The steering column control module (SCCM) may have been built with an inadequate welded connection between the internal flexible cable (FFC) and the busbar. The faulty connection may not allow the signal from the occupant safety control (ORC) module to reach the driver's airbag module, preventing it from deploying. An airbag that fails to deploy as intended can increase the risk of injury to the driver in the event of an accident. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
The exhaust-gas recirculation (EGR) cooler can be susceptible to thermal fatigue. The exhaust gases can interact with air and other hydrocarbons in the system, which can cause combustion in the inlet manifold. This can lead the vehicle to catch fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
An incorrectly fitted rear coil spring may detach from the vehicle, which could affect vehicle handling and create a hazard for following traffic. This increases the risk of accidents and injuries.

The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
The high-voltage battery pack can contain cells having separator damage. A damaged separator can lead to a very rapid chemical chain reaction in the battery. This can cause the battery to overheat, which can start a fire in the vehicle. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
