My wife had a collision with another vehicle. She rear ended a pick up truck. The airbags deployed sending a retainer from the driver side airbag into her cheek. The piece was embedded in her cheek from Dec 27 2022 until Jan 17 2023. She saw two doctors about the issue they thought she had a bump from the airbag deploying and a small cut. No one thought twice about it. On Jan 17 2023 she went to prompt care and told them she thinks there was something embedded they agreed and told her to contact a surgeon. The referral was placed for a surgeon however on the evening of Jan 17 2023 she scratched the scab and then the scab fell off and the little snap like retainer fell out.
There was no recall. It was an extended warranty sent to owners. We are the 2nd owner. Never recieved it. It is active head restraint x91. We spoke to chrysler they say the expiration was 11/11/2021. This is a hazard. The airbag is in the headrest. With it broken if the car us in an accident the headrest will impale the passenger. Chrysler knows this is a problem but will not extend the warranty for this issue. My vehicle is a 2010 chrysler town and country. The mileage is only 27,000. This should be covered.

I have received two letters from fca us llc. The first indicated that a problem with the airbag's the logo, when deployed, could cause injury. The second, just received, states; 'we are extending the active restraint warranty period because some vehicles may experience inadvertent deployment(emphasis mine) of one or both of the front seat active head restraint(s). This, in my opinion, means that I am driving a vehicle that has two bombs on board that could detonate at anytime. This is huge saftey issue for my family, especially if the vehicle is transit in a high speed driving environment. Fca needs to be required to disable this 'safety system' so that the vehicle can be safely used while parts are ordered to replace this dangerous condition. The potential for the lost of life by an inadvertent deployment could result in a serious loss of life in a high speed, congested environment. Who would be held liable for such a scenario" fca, or the people who continued to drive their vehicles after having been notified of this potentially dangerous condition" the NHTSA needs to protect those of us who have limited means of transportation and who will be forced to use our vehicles, knowing that we are at risk as well as those around us. Please address this dangerous situation. I recommend that fca be required to disable this 'safety'feature, order the parts to fix it asap instead of kicking the safety can down the road for the owners to deal with later and at their expense. A careful reading of this notice is convincing evidence that this is fca's strategy to avoid the costs of an immediate replacement of their faulty components. I, as well as others, are counting on the Agency to protect us from this thinly designed scam and serious safety issue. Thank you for your attention, consideration and action on my behalf and those of others.
