Head read spontaneously ejected or popped while parked. Almost like a airbag would.
On 2 occasions my daughter was sitting in the middle row passenger side seat , while going to recline the seat the head rest flipped up and hit her in the head as it would when attemping to fold the seat to put in floor(stow and go seats).
Purchased this vehicle in sept 2013, immediately the second row, passenger-side seatbealt does not propel back. The seller of the vehicle, directed me to a mechanic to repair it but shortly after it occured again. Less than a year after purchase, the fuse/motor on the driver's seat just stopped and the seat is unable to be adjusted. Last week, went for repairs to front wheel bearing (tire popped directly off) and was advised the rear wheel bearing will also need to be replaced. Cannot tell if any of these are normal wear and tear or malfunctions with the vehicle, especially since I have only had it for 2 years.
The contact owns a 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan. The contact stated that as she attempted to position the rear passenger's seat upright, the head rest slammed down and injured a child passenger. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for inspection. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified and but they provided no assistance. The failure mileage was 1,200.
