On 4/9/12 I was involved in a serious accident that resulted in my daughter obtaining a severe traumatic brain. She was in critical condition and is now severely disabled. The back curtain airbags did not protect her and did not appear to work properly. I believe that the vehicle was not properly examined after the accident. The car was a rental vehicle and my family was out of state on vacation. Due to the severe injury of my daughter I believe that the airbags failed.

The rear seat belts do not restrain the passengers due to the position of the shoulder strap. The shoulder strap was too far forward and could not be used to restrain children in the vehicle.

The front passenger seat belt alert system does not function on my new 2011 Chrysler Town and country limited. I hadn't noticed this fact until a passenger commented in surprise that her seat belt was not fastened. This was at the end of a drive across town. I contacted the dealer immediately, and the service manger informed me that Chrysler found in manufacturing that this passenger seat belt alert did not work correctly, so they disabled it in software. He further said that if or when a software update becomes available to fix the problem, I would be informed of the fix.
