Active Headrest system deployed without collision on the passenger side. Could have impacted passenger and caused serious head injury. Vehicle was taken to dealer and directed me to Chryslers customer hotline. They were reluctant to do anything and were trying to put the blame on me. They said they would call back in the next 2-3 business days to examine the vehicle after much back and forth. There were no warning signs that the headrest would deploy and no prior notice from the manufacture.

While driving, my driver seat headrest deployed. There was no collision to activate the headrest to deploy. It did so spontaneously. This could have caused a major accident due to me being startled. I am concerned for my daughter’s safety and mine. There were no recalls for the headrests reported in my vehicle. There was no indication that the headrests in my vehicle would be an issue. I will be taking the vehicle to CarMax, where I purchased it and to the Chrysler dealership to seek a solution

I had all 3 recalls completed from the Chrysler dealer but only 2 now show complete on NHTSA and Carfax. Could you please check on this for me See attached service record from the dealer for the recalls that were completed.

The active headrest restraint system deployed for no reason in the passenger side headrest while driving down the road at 35 mph. It sounded like a gunshot! The passenger was hit in the back of the head but thankfully not injured.

There was and is still no warning lights indicating any type of problem with anything.
