Takata airbag recall on other Patriot years
No other Patriot model year has enough reports of Takata airbag recall for a sheet of its own. See every Patriot year.
What this problem usually is
This is the narrower sheet inside airbag problems for complaints about inflator recalls, Takata's above all. Many owners here aren't describing a failure they've seen. They're describing a recall notice, a dealer who doesn't have the part, and the question of whether the car is safe to drive in the meantime.
What got replaced
Few of these reports name the part that was replaced.
Recalls and investigations

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 9 of 113 reports involved a crash and 6 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
File your own report with NHTSA. Complaint counts are how a problem gets an investigation. How reports land on this sheet.
