On 7/31/2016 my vehicle was parked in a driveway. I entered the vehicle, started the engine and the driver side active headrest deployed. Attempts to reset headrest per the operators manual failed. On 8/4/2016 I took the vehicle to the dealership who informed me that they could not reset headrest and it had to be replaced (cost approx $900). I contacted Dodge customer service who has assigned an investigator to look into the issue. Case # 29846962 as of this date, 8/5, the replacement headrest is on order and I am waiting to be contacted by the investigator to look at the vehicle. Prior to the incident, the vehicle had been driven in excess of 500 miles (northern va to tn) and had been parked and secured in the driveway for approx. 1 hour. The vehicle was not, and has never been, in an accident.

I purchased this auto on 8/12/2013. According to the Dodge website the car has an outstanding recall on it (safety recall N44 / NHTSA 13V-283 reprogram occupant restraint control module). I specifically asked the dealer when I bought the car if there were any recalls on it and was told "no." Now I learn that not only does it have an open recall on it, but also that Chrysler announced over a month before my purchase date.

The air bag light turned on while sitting at a complete stop. I noticed that when I get up from the seat the light will go off and then back on again once I sit back down. I seemed to do it more when the car had been in direct sun light. Since the first time it came on the light is random and comes on and off at any given time. Dealer has been notified and service is scheduled for later this week.
