Seats Problems of Dodge Charger

While driving under normal conditions with no collision or impact, the side curtain airbag in my Dodge Charger scat pack deployed spontaneously. The deployment caused the headliner and pillar trim to rupture and released what appeared to be metal fragments and more. Occupants sustained scratches and narrowly avoided facial injury. I discovered there’s a recall on this airbag as this is a known issue. I brought the vehicle to an authorized Dodge dealership for diagnosis and repair. During this process, I was informed that the VIN has an active safety recall related to the airbag/srs system. However, the dealership declined to perform recall-related inspection or repairs due to the vehicle having a rebuilt title. I’m concerned my recall remedy is being denied.

I was sitting at an exit from a store waiting to pull out into an intersection. Full foot on the brake, and I know for certain I wasn't accidentally hitting the accelerator because on the first "jump" I checked to make sure. It lurched through the brakes multiple times bucking like a cammed car would. Then threw all these warning lights, turtle icon came up saying speed limited, and the collision lights came on as well as traction control was disabled. Shut off and wouldn't power back on for a few minutes leaving the entire front half of my car sitting in oncoming traffic. I've had this issue since day one. At first I thought it was from having the seats back in the furthest most position, but after testing its not. One of my friends legs got caught when trying to get out causing him to fall. Another's entire body was pinched because they cant get out in under 5 seconds. . If you have children do not put them in the back if you are having this issue. There is no safety mechanism in place and you have to way for the seat to go back all the way and reset the setback to get it to move forward again. Quickest solution I've found to get someone out in this situation is to allow it to fully adjust back, and manually adjusting the seat forward. I have not been able to charge the vehicle consistently at any stations since purchase in 8/28. I would get nonstop errors, having to un-plug and re-plug in the vehicle every 5-10%, sometimes not even working at all. I've been left stranded with less than 5% left and when I returned to the dealership to get an emergency charge just to get home they called the police on me and trespassed me from their lot. . I've only been able to get it to work at a Tesla Charger once. I've used multiple different adapters from amazon including the dewalt and lectron adapters. The only one that's worked so far is the Charger in easton, MD with the magic dock connector already installed.

Tl- the contact owns a 2016 Dodge Charger. The contact stated a feature on the vehicle allows him to position the driver chair to certain settings from driver one to driver two. The contact stated that while attempting to enter the vehicle and engaging this feature, the contact's daughter had placed her head in between the head rest and the rear window. Once the contact opened the door, the seat began to automatically adjust and space between vehicle and head rest began narrow. As the seat began to adjust, the seat began to choke her neck.

They reset the light and is was fine until approx. March, then came on a couple times. In approximately in April I took it to sport hyndani Dodge, they said it was a dirty connection and charged me 90. 00. That lasted approximately 1 month and it came back on intermittently, now continually. Took it to sport today September 16, for a recall for the air bag system. They said it would not fix the light being on, they said it was a sensor and they would have to take the seat apart to figure out what the problem was. Did not have it fixed today, did not have the time. Has been in 3 times for same problem only to get 3 different diagnoses.

On 11/30/13 I drove my car to town. When I returned home, my family and I decided to go do some christmas shopping, mainly for yard decorations. Instead of driving my car, we took our other vehicle. We were gone approx 2 hrs. When we returned home, I entered the house with my son and turned the tv on for him and proceeded to fix a plate for supper, which took maybe 15 mins. I put the plate in the microwave and heard the horn blow, like the alarm went off, on my car. I went to the door to discover that there were flames inside the car. I called 911 while my husband ran out to try and extinguish the fire, which he managed to do before the fire dept arrived. I reported the incident to Chrysler, who reported back to me that they are denying it is a mechanical issue. The fire investigator for metlife reports that his findings show there was a short under the passenger seat which just smoldered until a spark ignited some papers in the floorboard. A few days before this happened, I started to work and the control panel on my car had completely locked up. I had to stop and restart my car more than once before the panel unfroze. The only other problem I had prior to this incident was that a message started showing up that the key was not detected while I was in the car. The incidents could be totally unrelated but was advised to mention it just in case.

I have had numerous recalls on this car, especially one that is pending that does not seem to have a remedy yet, I also had a problem with the driver seat making cracks and squeaky noises as well as losing my settings so I often have to adjust the seat , I took the car in about 4-5 times for this repair and it was never done correctly.
