A couple of years ago my passenger head restraint deployed while parked and would not reset. I was charged $652 to re place. Chrysler later reimbursed me for this expense and extended my warranty for this for one year. Two days ago the driver side activated while the car was parked. That means the warrant extension had passed. Did some research and this is a common problem caused by the weakening of the plastic that is under pressure of the retaining springs. This problem not only affects the Chrysler 200, but 300s and several keep and Dodge vehicles manufactured between 2010 and 2015. It is just by the grace of God no one has been injured. Mileage was 78000 the first time and 106500 the second time

My wife and daughters almost died in a car accident due to the apparent failure of this vehicle. We were driving on an HWY at night and the car just died out of nowhere. Dash started to flash and just died. We initially thought that it was the mechanic that had just fixed the car but after an investigation concluded that it was not anything they could have done. My family sustained life-threatening injuries and almost did not make it out alive as thee were rear-ended by a truck. Then on top of it when they were hit no airbags deployed which is what caused the injuries to be so much worse. After reading multiple complaints on NHTSA about the same issue for the same year and make I am baffled that this issue has not been addressed. I almost lost my family.

Vehicle was at detail shop - parked. Employee moved seat to access back and drivers side head rest deployed. There was no collision. Unable to reset, as part is broken. Appears to be a major safety concern which could lead to an accident. I will be attempting to address this issue quickly as it represents a major safety problem. It is available for inspection for now. Had this happened while driving I believe an accident would have resulted. I will be contacting the dealer and an independent shop on Monday. At this time it has not been inspected by anyone official. No warning signs were noted.

Was stopped at a stop light when my passenger airbag deployed. Chrysler said the part alone would be $550 to fix - this should be covered under warranty, and ultimately, should not even be happening. Someone could have been seriously injured! I'm planning on trading in my car in the next couple weeks to avoid more issues like this; terrible terrible company.

Takata recall, catalytic converter recall, car airbag deflated, I called my dealer, bud's Chrysler Dodge. I could get a loaner car for the days they needed this repairs because I did not buy my car there. I need a replacement vehicle for 2 days because I travel outside the area with my job all the time. The car has been putting out some unwanted fumes and exhaust emissions at certain times as well.

Takata recall, have contacted the dealership many times since the recall back in 2016 and keep getting told that the parts are not available and then told that they were available when they are not, I have tried many times to get this fixed but the dealership is refusing to fix it just because I keep getting told that they would order the part and nothing gets done. I am starting to get aggravated and concerned for the safety of me and my family while driving. I am regretting that I purchased a Chrysler snd don't want to purchase another one again. I use to think highly of Chrysler and their products but dealing with this and causing a major headache has changed mind to not buy again. Just because of the way that I have been treated, my mom has the same recall on her Ford and Ford is paying for her to have a rental while they wait for the parts to be available for hers to be fixed. That to me tells how much they care about the safety for their customers. I have been driving around for 2 years with this recall just for nothing to be done. If I could take the car back and be able to get me different vehicle like a Ford, Chevy I would. This has been a nightmare.

Recall S61. I purchased my car at carmax in 2017. Took it in last week for radio. They sent it to newark Chrysler Jeep on cleveland ave in de. While it was there I had ask to have recalls fix. According to my paper work it was completed on July 5th. Well today is July 11th and it still says I have the same recall on my car. I contact carman they went and pick up my car and took it to brandywine Chrysler where it still is. I have paperwork from newark saying they fix the recall. I'm very mad that it says its done but really hasn't. this is a recall something very serious as to that with seatbelt. No dealership should ever do this. Carmax has also stated to me they will be taking action with newark also regarding this.they had also stated they replaced my radio which they didn't.

Takata recall. The airbag light keeps coming on and off on the dash, sometimes when I go to break. I have had it tested to make sure what it is. I was told by stark's it is a sensor in my headrest that is part of the airbag system, if it is on and I have a wreck they will not deploy. Started in may and is still going on.
