Front Air Bag Sensor Control problems of the 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan

The following has happened to my car. The ahr headrest went off, and I wasn't in an accident. However, Dodge Chrysler is not wanting to issue a recall since a person is not at risk for injury. However, cost to fix this headrest runs in the $500-$900 category. And it's a known issue. So why isn't Dodge Chrysler acknowledging it? the �active head restraint� (ahr) headrests found in certain Chrysler vehicles and manufactured by grammer ag suffer from a defect. The 65-page lawsuit out of florida alleges that although fca us and grammer ag's active head restraint is meant to spring forward in the event of a rear-end collision to catch a vehicle occupant's head to prevent whiplash, the feature can �deploy without warning or external force from a collision, and forcefully strike the back� of a driver or passenger's head. Describing the apparent defect as common and uniform, the case claims the force of the impact to the back of a vehicle occupant's head and neck can cause serious injury and creates an additional accident risk should the defect manifest suddenly while a vehicle is in operation. According to the lawsuit, the cause of the defect is the failure of a �cheap plastic component� inside the defendants� ahr. Specifically, the feature contains a plastic bracket that acts as the triggering mechanism and holds the feature's spring-loaded release in place until a sensor signals that the vehicle has been hit in its rear, the case explains. As a �cost-saving measure,� the plaintiffs say, Chrysler and grammer ag designed the ahr bracket with �an inferior and inexpensive form of plastic� that can crack and break down prematurely due to the 75 pounds of constant pressure applied by the ahr's springs onto the bracket.
