2014 Chrysler 200 Seats Problems

“Takata recall. The airbag light keeps coming on and off on the dash, sometimes when I go to break. I have had it tested to make sure what it is.

“2014 Chrysler 200 126k miles sept. 8, 2020 slowing down for a red light. Approximately 25 MPH. Heard a loud noise like a tire blowing out. Yet didn't feel anything. Immediately pulled over to inspect my vehicle outside and found nothing amiss. Entered vehicle on drivers side and looked over and saw passenger side headrest had deployed.

A car seat shouldn't do this to a person. …”

“I was alone in the car, driving on the freeway, when I heard a startling bang that came from the front passenger side. I saw that the headrest on the front passenger seat had deployed while I was driving. When I got home, I noticed several small pieces of black plastic on the front passenger seat cushion. Upon examining the headrest, it was obvious that the plastic which was supposed to hold a 2 -3 silver metal retaining rod had failed. That silver metal rod is still engaged in the electronic lock/release mechanism attached to the back of the head rest. …”

“Active head restraints (ahrs) on driver's seat deployed spontaneously. Some broken plastic parts fell out. Luckily I was not in the car and noticed only when neck got uncomfortable while sitting.”
