Unknown. My son hit the front passenger headrest with a toy and the headrest deployed. I was in the front passenger seat at the time this happened but it did not hit the back of my head.

SUV was parked not and overnight my passenger seat headrest "active head restraint" activated and opened up. I contacted Dodge/Chrysler Headquaters and they stated a recall was found for this safety feature but my vehicle VIN was not part of the recall. I should not be responsible for repairs. I know first hand how important safety features are needed on vehicle and how they save lives when working/used properly. I'm an FARS FL Analyst currently contracted with NHTSA

Headrest deployed while driving
- Frederica, DE, USA
The active headrest restraint deployed in the vehicle with no collision. It deployed randomly. It looks like there is a broken part inside the headrest. I just bought the car. I have complained to the dealer because it wasn't like that when I test drove it but I saw it after I bought it and was driving it home. Could have happened during the final detailing.

On May 18, 2021, I got in my vehicle and was securing my seatbelt when I heard a really loud noise and felt something brush my head. I got out of the vehicle, walked around and inspected as I was not certain what it was. When I opened the rear passenger door, I noticed the headrest had deployed on the driver's side seat. The car was not in motion - it was not even on. This is a known defect, however, according to Fisher Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, our vehicle is not one of the ones affected, yet this still happened. It is at the dealership to be repaired. Dodge has been advised of this incident.

Dogs in vehicle in front passenger side and rear passenger side. Dog in front may have come in contact with switch or control back\lombar seat rest opened to fold open to rear ( sleep position ) front back rest trapped and crushed dog sleeping on rear passenger side, required emergency stop on highway to attempt to locate seat switch in order to release dog from position. Dog ( 48 pounds ) suffered major injuries, internal bleeding and liver damage due to rat trap like setup or front seat violent motion towards rear and no safety restraint mechanism to prevent seat from pinning rear passengers in place. Will submit civil court case to recover losses and medical fees for injured pet. This vehicle presents a major safety hazard considering there are no safety mechanisms preventing the front seat from opening in such a manner. Have owned lots of cars and have been driving with dogs for 25 years now and never come across something like this before, will get rid of this vehicle asap
