My vehicle was parked in the driveway stationary, and as I walked to the vehicle to enter the car with my 2 young children and as we approached I heard a load pop noise. I found the ahr headrest had deployed, with no one touching or moving the vehicle. The vehicle has never been in an accident and the headrest has never been reset for any reason. The plastic joint mechanism and spring that holds it in and together cracked and broke. I called Chrysler dealership and they will not fix or replace unless I pay out of pocket, approx $1000 for 1 headrest. The gentleman on the phone acknowledged that he knew of this happening often in Chrysler T&C vans, however could not help me as my warranty is now up and there is not a recall. I am terrified to drive my van now, knowing that the drivers side headrest ahr may deploy at anytime no warning and cause injuries to me, which could cause me to crash my vehicle while driving endangering my children and family. I have ziptied both the passenger headrest and drivers head rest shut. The drivers headrest is ziptied in case it randomly deploys and the passengers is zip tied as the head rest internal plastic mechanisms are broken.

- Boca Raton, FL, USA

The headrest on the passenger side of the vehicle spontaneously deployed without warning while I was driving one day. There was no accident, sudden stop, or anything of the sort. It simply occurred while driving. Thank god no one was riding in the passenger seat at the time. After it happened, my husband and I looked up this issue online and discovered hundreds of folks that stated the exact same thing happened to them in their Chrysler vehicles. This headrest is supposed to be a safety feature (which we knew nothing about), but it seems to be the exact opposite. The plastic holding the pin in place simply broke. There is no way to push the headrest back together, so now it is sitting deployed causing the passenger's head to be pushed forward.

- Tallahassee, FL, USA

I was driving on a side street at approximately 20mph when a very loud noise and impact to the back of my head happened. I swerved and slammed the brakes. After I was stopped, I put the vehicle in park to investigate the situation. My ahr (active head rest) had spontaneously deployed. I was not in an accident. The deployment struck the back of my head with such force that it sent me forward. I instantly got a headache and lasted for 3 days. Consumer stated her head "pops" if she is still for a long period of time and move forward/down.
