Passenger seat, headrest deployed, spontaneously going down the road.

- Gilbert, SC, USA

Unknown--I wonder if the air bag will still work like this. The cover seems to be shrinking/glue not holding. Pictures attached.

I was travelling down the road at approximately 30 mph and my the active headrest on the passenger side randomly deployed. This caused an extremely loud noise that sounded like an explosion. This caused me to swerve and slam on the brakes. It was unclear, at the time, what was happening. This has now caused extreme anxiety that it will happen on the driver side, while I am driving, and cause bodily harm or cause me to wreck, which could be potentially fatal. It appears that the clips that were holding it on just broke, or gave out, causing the deployment. After researching this I have found that this is a well known problem with this vehicle and has caused injury to others. When looking up my VIN number it says there are no recalls. It appears as though this is an expensive fix, which should be covered in full because it was a known default that Jeep continued to manufacture in the same way. I am not having to drive Leaning forward, because of fear of injuries if the drivers side does the same. And passengers have to ride with a deployed headrest that will not provide the protection it was supposed to provide in the event of a wreck, and that could cause additional harm because of it already being deployed.

Air bag exploded while driving destroying the nav, cruise control and electronics

I have Grand Cherokee SRT 2014 I am from Saudi Arabia. I was driving my vehicle in the right lane at a speed of 40 miles. There was a vehicle in the second lane that swerved onto my vehicle and forced me to crash into a light pole. The airbags did not deploy as the vehicle stopped due to the impact and not the brakes. I was hit while driving, and because I was wearing the seat belt, my rib cage muscles and other injuries were torn. Please investigate and help me. I have never got any fault in regard air bags even after the access ther is no fault light.

Driver side head rest air bag deployed completely on its own while I was sitting at a red light. It slammed forward with such great force hitting me in the back of my head and caused a horrible headache. It is available for inspection. My safety is at risk everytime I get in my car due to the fact it is a safety feature put in place by Jeep to prevent whiplash or any type of head or neck injury. It has been confirmed by a Certified Jeep dealership that it is fact a safety feature that is now inoperable. There was no warning lights prior to and at this time no lights or messages have appeared.

The Active head restraint on the passenger side deployed. The vehicle was brought to the dealer and confirmed the restraint had deployed. If this happened on the driver's side I could have had an accident. As it was it scared me and I swerved. There was no warning! I know there was an extended warranty issued but it has expired and the problem still exists regardless!

I was driving with no passenger abord and the head rest on the passenger side busted open without any cause, and I did not have any accident. Now it remains open and won't close. I was very frighten and I am scared that the same problem will happen on the drivers side, and I am very concern the airbags will active on its own. No police report was done but I have an appointment on July 7, 2023, with the dealership where I purchase the unit. This is something that needs to be addressed as a recall for safety purpose.

The passenger side headrest popped out violently by itself. Was driving up the interstate when the headrest randomly popped out. The headrest is unable to be reset. This could have been a very dangerous issue had someone been sitting in the passenger seat when the active headrest system deployed.

- North Chesterfield, VA, USA

While driving normally, the passenger headrest violently shot open. Plastic clips which once held a metal rod inside the headrest can be seen stressed and broken, causing the active head restraint (AHR) systems to deploy. Several independent websites and forums show this is a known issue but there has not been a recall. There were no warning signs of an issue until this point.

The head rest deployed into the back of my head while driving through an intersection. No collision. No bumps. No contact. Smooth driving and then it deployed. It-??s a hard and shocking deployment that hits you in the back of the head very aggressively causing my head jolt forward from the impact.

While traveling on vacation, we pulled over at a gas station (thankfully I was not driving, for I believe I would have been in an accident). While sitting at the gas station, my drivers side Active Headrest Restraint deployed suddenly and struck me in the back of the head. I was leaning forward a bit and didn't receive the full blow, but it did cause me neck pain, a headache, and my left eye was throbbing.

Service shifter Transfer case Radio malfunction Gear Shifter Shifter got stuck in park i had to forcefully pull the shifter to get it to go into drive. Monday Feb 14, 2022 approximately around 9:00pm I drove my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee to the gas station. I pull up at the gas pumps and pit the shifter to park, I exit the vechile and lock the doors, go inside the store to pay for my purchase and as im walking out I look and my jeep was gone. So I look around and I see it across the highway in a ditch. So I take off Running to my vechile and get in the vechile to try and reverse it but its automactilly goes right back into park. So I get out and look at the damage because there is a guard rail cables. My car has front end damage because it was stuck under the cables. Made a police report. I called the dealership where I am leasing the vechile from and they do not wanna help me. I've had nothing put problems with this vechile since I got it. This really needs to be looked into. What if my babies were in the car. Thankfully there was no oncoming traffic at that time. Becauae its a busy highway. I also have video footage of the incident from that night.

Passenger head restraint headrest deploys without collision. While parked in driveway overnight, (popped open and forward). Dealership found no faults

- Houston, TX, USA

My vehicle has the very well known problem for delamination of the dashboard. My airbag light has flickered on the dash a few times and dealership says that this is a big safety concern. It looks like it may be putting tension on the passenger side airbag creating risk of early deployment or failure to deploy in an accident. It already cracked my defroster vent.
