Driving 2014 Dodge Durango when the active headrest restraint on the passenger seat activated. No accident or impact to the vehicle during incident. Resulted in passenger receiving a solid "punch" to the back of the head and neck resulting in headaches for a week. If this had happened on the driver's seat (and it still could !), I can imagine an accident is possible due to the utter surprise of the noise and being punched in the head while driving. At the time of the incident, we had no idea

While driving down the interstate, the passenger headrest deployed and hit my husband in the back of the head, jarring him and hurting his neck. This is the second time this has happened, the first time was on the driverâs side and dodge repaired the issue.

There were no warning lights or signs that this was going to happen. At this time I have n
Sitting at drive through and driver headrest exploded and hit me in the back of the head. Thank God I was not moving at the time and my car was in park or I may have wrecked!

We were driving down the interstate, and the active head restraint deployed for no reason. I was in the passenger seat. It hit me hard in the back of the head. I didnât know what had happened.

Active headrest restraint deployed unexpectedly. Wife was driving down the highway and got onto the rumble strip for 50 feet or so and the drivers side headrest deployed hitting her in the back of the head. She's got a stiff neck now. I called the dealership and there's no recall for this even though it's been under investigation for 2.5 years. What gives? Someone is going to be seriously injured one of these days
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.
The headrest deployed and has a broken pin and I am unable to put it back in place.
While driving down a smooth paved road approximately 40 mph, the passenger side headrest deployed for no reason. My 13yr old son was sitting in the seat and the headrest hit him in the head causing a headache and possible concussion. I'm submitting this just minutes after the incident and have not had it assessed or repaired. There were no warning lights displayed when this occurred. My vehicle is available for inspection upon request.
