## What is wrong

Chrysler Group LLC \(Chrysler\) is recalling certain model year 2008\-2012 Jeep Wrangler right\-hand drive vehicles manufactured February 1, 2007, through October 10, 2011.  The affected vehicles have airbag clockspring assemblies that could experience broken airbag circuits.


## What can happen

In the event of a crash necessitating airbag deployment, a broken electrical circuit in the airbag clockspring wiring assembly can lead to non\-deployment of the driver\-side frontal airbag and will not be able to properly protect the driver, increasing the risk of injuries.


## The remedy

Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the clockspring and add a steering wheel dust shield, free of charge.  The recall began on June 10, 2013.  Owners may contact Chrysler at 1\-800\-247\-9753.  This recall supercedes NHTSA recall 11V\-528.  Chrysler's recall campaign number is M31.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
