Driverside front headrest just popped for no reason. Loading kids in SUV and it just popped, March 8th 2023 no reason or explination I contacted crysler Corp they told me there is nothing they can do to help me and that its not covered they can give a price on a new headrest
The passenger head rest popped/exploded and juts forward and will not close back. I was advised that it is an airbag recall issue. However after checking my vin nothing is shown listed here. On a google search it says there is a ten year unlimited mile recall.
Service airbag system, service antilock brakes, service transmission, service shifter suddenly appear. Ater pulling over and turning it off the car went dead. Just spent $1500 for a new computer and two days later I have service airbag system. I have videos of the chaos. If this car is in an accident the airbags will not go off and passengers will be unprotected. The electrical issues in this car are beyond comprehension. Chrysler needs to take responsibility before it causes a catastrophic injury. The behavior of this vehicle is unacceptable and unsafe.
The contact's wife owns a 2014 Dodge Durango. The contact stated while his daughter was driving 65-70 MPH, she heard a loud popping sound. The contact's daughter veered to the side of the road and inspected the vehicle but could not determine the cause of the popping sound. Upon returning inside the vehicle, the contact's daughter noticed that the front passenger's side headrest had independently deployed. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact's daughter continued to drive the vehicle. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.

In October 2014, a recall was called for some 2014 Dodge Durangos and Jeep Grand Cherokees because a electrical issue where the air bag light intermittently comes on and turns off repeatedly. My vehicle was not included but it is having the same issue which almost seems like a short in wiring. This is an issue that widely discussed in the Durango chat as other people are told as well that their 2014 is not included but they have the same issue.
The active head restraint system deployed on passenger side while sitting at a traffic light with no warning or impact to another vehicle. I was the passenger when the headrest blew out causing my head to jerk forward and straining my neck. I have an appointment scheduled at the Dodge dealership in Thousand Oaks, CA on 11/5/2021 at 9:30am. No warning lamps or systems whatsoever.
While stopped at a red light, the headrest exploded and hit me in the back of the head. The soft part popped forward with force away from the hard plastic back.
Passenger headrest deployed randomly and unexpectedly without warning during normal forward vehicle operation striking the passenger in the head. Vehicle was not in traffic or in contact with any other vehicle or object. Vehicle has no accident history or air bag deployment history. No warning lights and no warning prior to deployment. Owner is on summer holiday in Colorado. Owner contacted local Colorado dealer and was advised the headrest is not a repairable item and as such will require replacement. Dealer estimated repairs to be approximately $1,100. Part will need to be ordered and dealer could not estimate ETA for the part.
While sitting in the car with my family at walmart waiting for frock pick up the passenger seat headrest air bag burst open. We were not in accident or had we went over any large speed bumps. Actually the car was in park.

I was driving down the street and 1 vehicle in front of me about 3 to 4 car lengths. The woman was going same speed, I looked to my right to assure a dog was not going to run into the strret, 2 seconds, an looked back at road and person in front had stopped, with no turn signal on and no oncoming traffic. I firmly applied brakes and tried to veer around the car but there was not sufficient space and hit the back of car so hard it tossed around items in the car breaking front windshield, knocking off my glasses. The force was so hard it thrust my body hard onto steering wheel and leg into dash. The airbags did not deploy for driver or passenger. The seat belt did not hold my body to the seat. I have a very serious contusion on left leg where putting weight on the leg is terrible pain. I have a fractured sturnum(chestbone) making breathing, walking, getting up or down, reaching for something extremely difficult and extremely painful. Your site by VIN number states there was a recall on airbags, I never received any notice of a recall on airbags or seatbelt. I phoned local dealership for history and they reported there has never been a recall on this make and model. I talked with insurace agent and an attorney and they had no information of recalls on this vehicle. Now I dont know what to believe, but I do know something is wrong as either the airbag or seat belt should have prevented me from being thrust forward so hard to fracture my sternum and cause serious injury to left knee. I would like an investigation as to why the airbag and seatbelt did not work properly. I dont believe this vehicle is safe. Please conduct the investigation.
