SEATS
I WAS ALONE IN THE CAR, DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, WHEN I HEARD A STARTLING BANG THAT CAME FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE. I SAW THAT THE HEADREST ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT HAD DEPLOYED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. WHEN I GOT HOME, I NOTICED SEVERAL SMALL PIECES OF BLACK PLASTIC ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CUSHION. UPON EXAMINING THE HEADREST, IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT THE PLASTIC WHICH WAS SUPPOSED TO HOLD A 2"-3" SILVER METAL RETAINING ROD HAD FAILED. THAT SILVER METAL ROD IS STILL ENGAGED IN THE ELECTRONIC LOCK/RELEASE MECHANISM ATTACHED TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD REST. THE PLASTIC PIECES ON THE SEAT WERE FROM THAT ROD RETAINER. I DO NOT KNOW IF THE HEAT OF THE ARIZONA SUMMERS ARE CAUSING THE HEADREST PLASTIC COMPONENTS TO WEAKEN. I ALSO DON'T KNOW IF THIS WAS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT, OR THE BEGINNING OF A TREND. I SHUDDER TO THINK WHAT WOULD'VE HAPPENED IF IT WAS THE DRIVERS HEADREST THAT FAILED, HITTING ME IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MILES AN HOUR ON THE FREEWAY. UNEXPECTEDLY GETTING HIT ON THE BACK OF THE HEAD WHILE DRIVING COULD RESULT IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT! MY CHRYSLER 200 HAD 38,110 MILES WHEN THIS OCCURED; IT IS BARELY OUT OF WARRANTY. THE DEFECTIVE HEADREST IS STILL INSTALLED IN THE CAR. IT APPEARS THE CHRYSLER PART NUMBER IS 68065766AA; MANUFACTURED BY GRAMMER (IN GERNAMY) AND THEIR PART NUMBER IS 1192441. REMOVING THE HEADRESTS TURN ON THE AIRBAG WARNING INDICATOR. AS I STATED EARLIER, I FEAR THAT THE DRIVER HEADREST MAY ALSO FAIL AT ANY TIME AND RESULTS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER REQUESTING BOTH OF THESE HEADRESTS TO BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AND AM AWAITING A RESPONSE.

AFTER ONLY 3 YEARS THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE FAILED ON MY 2014 CHRYSLER 200. IT'S A $1,400 FIX. FOR A MAJOR SYSTEM TO GO IN 3 YEARS HAS TO BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND THEY SHOULD HELD LIABLE FOR IT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
CAR WOULD NOT START. THE LIGHTS WORKED, AAA CAME AND CHECKED PLUGS OTHER THINGS UNDER THE HOOD AND RESET THE FUEL PUMP BUTTON. IT STIL WOULD NOT START. THEY TOWED IT TO A REPAIR SHOP, WHO PUT A NEW FUEL PUMP IN. EXACTLY 30 DAYS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. A DIFFERENT TOW TRUCK DRIVER CAME, TRIED THE SAME THINGS AND TOWED IT TO THE SHOP. SHOP OWNERS SAID IT IS STARTING FINE; BUT WANTED TO KEEP IT OVER THE WEEKEND TO TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IS HAPPENING. WHILE THIS DID OCCUR AFTER THE CAR HAD BEEN SITTING FOR A FEW HOURS, I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WILL HAPPEN ON THE ROAD. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I WAS AT THE EMERGENCY ROOM AT THE HOSPITAL, AND IT HAD BEEN SITTING IN THE PARKING LOT FOR ABOUT THREE HOURS. LAST WEEK, IT JUST DID NOT START ONE MORNING. THE NIGHT BEFORE, I WAS DRIVING WITH A FRIEND IN THE CAR, AND I TOLD HER SOMETHING DIDN'T SOUND RIGHT- BUT I KEPT DRIVING. THERE IS A CLICKING NOISE THAT SEEMS TO BE COMING FROM THE AC/HEATER VENTS THAT MAY BE UNRELATED. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS 6/20/17 AND THE SECOND ON 7/20/17.
