“Active headrest restraint system deployed while vehicle was parked in the driveway. Vehicle was parked in the driveway overnight, the following day we noticed that the headrest had sprung forward. Upon inspecting the headrest system I noticed that the retaining pin was still engaged in the retaining mechanism and that it had sprung because the plastic that holds the retaining pin had broken.”
