SEATS

Potential Consequences:

I had just finished a 45 minute drive to work without incident. The vehicle was in park and idling in a parking lot, while I sat in the driver's seat. All the sudden the headrest smacked me in the back of my head and made a loud popping noise. After getting out to see what happened, I discovered my headrest had deployed the safety feature, of popping forward.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

Transmission Went out Last year I just found out I could report it this seems to be a common issue with these Vans and would be nice to get some help with repair costs as I was told around 6k to repair. Also the flywheel has a crack in it I ordered a new oem replacement hoping the transmission shop can replace that while they do the repairs.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

The passenger's side sliding door lock switch is stuck in the locked position, so I can't open that door. There is a huge safety issue because the passengers can't open that door to exit, in case of an emergency. The car manufacturer issued a recall (Mopar X98) for this very same issue but it didn't include my car serial number, because my car is newer by about a month. So, they don't want to honor the recall on my car.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

On 7/2/2023 at approximately 12:04pm my family and I were driving home from church. My husband was driving and the driver's side head rest exploded, punching him in the back of the head while driving. We were very fortunate and no vehicle accident occurred. We were on the on ramp of Judge Tanner Blvd. in Covington, LA traveling to get onto Hwy 190 going north. First thing Monday morning on 7/3/2023, I called Dodge Corporation to report the incident and was given a case number (Case #86604720) and was told there was no recall on the head rest but to go to the dealership immediately. I brought my van to Rainbow Chrysler Dodge Jeep at 301 River Highland Blvd, Covington, LA 70433. At the dealership I was told this is a "common occurrence" and was covered under the extended warranty. I asked since it is a "common occurrence" why was it not recalled. I was told it is not deemed a safety hazard by Dodge. Seriously? Being punched in the back of the head while driving is not a safety concern by Dodge? My husband did have a headache for the rest of the day but his situation could have been much worse plus we could have been in an accident endangering our entire family (myself and 3 kids). I asked if I could get the passenger seat head rest replaced too and was told it's not covered unless it explodes. A recall needs to be made on these headrest before a fatal accident occurs.

Potential Consequences:

The sliding door power lock actuators fail. Making the door totally inoperable. This is the same issue that prompted Mopar warranty bulletin D-21-15. The dealer Jeff Belzer's Dodge of Lakeville MN. Service writer [XXX] says that this vin of vehicles is not in the bulletin. The vehicle is in the coverage period. It should be in the bulletin, should there be a fire or other emergency required to exit the vehicle. The safety issue is the same as the bulletin D-21-15, one could be trapped in the vehicle. I think that the not being able to open a vehicle door due to poor components would be a safety issue. And not just a warranty issue.

Potential Consequences:

My center doors on my mini van are inoperable. About 3 months ago, I tried to open the door to get my grandchild out of her carseat, and the door wouldn't open by the outside handle or the button on the control above. My dash would light up staying door must be unlocked to open...I pressed to unlock..and nothing happened. I had to enter through the drivers side to get her out. Today i went to the grocery store and i went to open the door with the remote keyfob and nothing happened. I tried to open the door manually with the outside handle and nothing ... so now both sides of my vehicle cannot open, very dangerous and now my van is useless carrying grandkids to and from . The Chrysler mini van had this same problem, and my friend had her automatic door accentuators replaced for free...there was a recall for this problem on earlier YEAR mini vans. This car is only 6 years old and its A Very dangerous situation now and a big inconvience as i cant enter the vehicle in tbe center to use the seats or stow away for transportiong large items. I called the dealership they want $1000-1500 .could be more couldbe less they said, .this is unacceptable

Corrective Action:
