“Airbag light and service airbag system warning constantly on. Airbag system deactivated. Very dsngerous if collison were to hsporn. Told my VIN is not included in recall p67, which is the issue I am having. This seems to be a common problem with multiple reports of not being included in the recall yet experiencing the same safety issue that is covered under recall p67.”

“The car was in park with ignition switch off. I sat in the passenger seat and starting to put on my seatbelt when unexpectedly the safety restraint system headrest activated hitting me in the back of the head. After incident I observed that the plastic used to hold the retainer bar in place has gave out and no longer in place with the retaining bar still within the release hooks.”

“The driver headrest active head restraint safety device deployed without warning during normal driving. There was no impact, etc., that would cause the device to deploy. The device errantly deployed. The headrest came in sharp and sudden contact with the rear of my head while in motion on a city street, not turning. Through online research I noted that this seems to be a common issue.”
