SEATS
I was sitting in the vehicle while it was in park, idling, and the driver’s seat active headrest suddenly deployed. Nothing struck the vehicle to cause it to jar suddenly. I was sitting in my kids’ school parking lot dropping them off. When looking inside the deployed headrest, it seems like there is a broken plastic piece that possibly works to keep the headrest “latched.”

ENGINE
Was out running errands and returned home. Pulled in garage and vehicle smelled hot, like on fire. Went to start vehicle back up and remove from garage incase of fire. The vehicle would NOT start. Took vehicle to local repairman. I was informed the alternator caught on fire. If this would of happened on the road, I could have been in a bad accident. Also because my vehicle was parked in the garage, there could of been the possibility of my house and vehicle catching on fire if it would have been worse. My Durango is currently at a independent auto repair shop. The new alternator has been ordered but there is concern that the computer might be destroyed also. The only person to inspect the vehicle would be my auto repairman. Unfortunately, there was absolutely NO warning lamps prior to the alternator burning up.

SERVICE BRAKES, ENGINE, STEERING
MY DURANGO STALLS WHEN I'M DRIVING AND RESTARTS ON ITS OWN. I HAD THE FUEL PUMP RELAY CHANGED ALREADY WHICH I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE DODGE DOESN'T HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PART. MY VEHICLE CONTINUES TO STALL WITH OUT NOTICE AND AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY KEPT MY CAR FOR A WEEK. THE CAR NEVER STALLED WHEN THE DROVE IT AROUND A FEW TIMES. THIS CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT STOPS AT ANY MOMENT AND YOU LOSE COMPLETE POWER. AT ANYTIME YOU COULD CRASH WITHOUT NOTICE.
