Consumer Description
I WAS RIDING DOWN THE HIGHWAY BY MYSELF AND HEARD A LOUD SNAPPING NOISE. I LOOKED TOWARDS MY PASSENGER SEAT AND NOTICED THAT THE HEADREST HAD EJECTED FROM ITS CASING. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD HAVE TO $500+ TO GET A NEW HEADREST. THIS IS HIGHLY UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS. I CAN UNDERSTAND IF I DAMAGED IT OR GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT, BUT NO ONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. IF MY WIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN SITTING THERE, WE WOULD PROBABLY BE AT THE HOSPITAL WITH NECK INJURIES CONSIDERING THE FORCE THAT IT EJECTED AT. DODGE NEEDS TO FIX THIS BEFORE THIS HAPPENS TO SOMEONE WHO IS DRIVING AND CAUSES AN ACCIDENT OR EVEN A FATALITY. *TR
