2013 DODGE AVENGER Air Bags Problems

Both head rest which is attached to airbags or have airbags in them I don’t know but the exploded open. Headrest could have exploded while someone was in the seat and got head injuries. No problem has not been confirmed by anyone but myself,husband and self employed mechanic, I didn’t know what to do. No, no type of warning before it happen. Passenger one exploded January 2025, driver exploded about May 2025.

Powertrain fail , airbag failed to deploy

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Avenger. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that the warning lights on the instrument panel flashed on and off. The contact stated that the horn was inadvertently honked while the vehicle was losing motive power. The vehicle was restarted; however, the failure recurred. The dealer was contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and confirmed that the VIN was not included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V282000 (Electrical System, Air Bags); and referred the contact to the NHSTA Hotline for assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 123,000.

I was driving my car and the active headrests on the driver side and passenger side both deployed prematurely. I wasn't in any collisions and the headrests deployed. It was very unexpected when they went off as i was driving to school it put both my safety and my sisters safety at risk when they deployed. As stated previously i am unsure as to why they went off as i was never involved in any collisions. There were no warning lamps or any messages prior to them deploying.

The TIPM failed causing the car to shut off and not start again. The problem has been confirmed by Upstate Auto. There was a recall on the TIPM but it was not replaced instead some occupant restraints were replaced instead and now the manufacturer does not make the TIPM part anymore.

The headrest in front passenger side made a loud noise and opened. It's scared me, because I had no clue what the noise was from at the time. It was night time and all I can say is thank God no other cars were near me...I probably would have wrecked. I'm very thankful that my son was not sitting there when it happened. There were no lights or warnings and I never knew that could happen let alone know the headrests could pop open. The vehicle has not been looked at our inspected. I seen there was a recall on this but after entering my Vin, it says this car has no active recalls.

My husband a I were driving down the highway and all of a sudden a loud sound a bam the air bag in the passenger seat blew open and dang near gave my husband whiplash. Also I have had the thermostat replaced 3 times in 2 years and the car is still overheating. The ABS sensor will not go off and its like the emergency brake is stuck. I can be driving and when I try to stop it is like its locking up.

The contact owns a 2013 Dodge Avenger. The contact stated that while driving approximately 55 mph, the driver seat headrest restraint was erroneously deployed. The contact indicated that during the incident the vehicle had not crashed or abruptly stopped to cause the headrest restraint to deploy. During the incident, the contact sustained an injured neck. No medical treatment was required. The cause of the failure was not determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 133,000.

3/24/2022, Mileage 102742. Airbag light intermittently turns on and off.

Purchased this car 3 yrs a go about 2 weeks ago the airbag light remains on constantly the car was parked but remains on constantly. The car has 107K I search for recall on this site and nothing even though there are over 485 complaints for the same issue. What does it take to get this NOTICED by MOPAR this is obviously a safety hazard. I bet if one of MOPAR's dependents was driving a 2013 Dodge Avenger they would get it fixed TODAY for free via a recall are you listening MOPAR??? I am sure you read these complaints. I will contact a Chrysler dealer in the area and see if they will do the right thing and fix this safety issue for free but after reading all these complaints looks like a losing battle. MOPAR is you want to have customers buy your cars do the right thing...

The air bag light turns on and off while driving, along with a ding, indicating that there is a problem with the air bag.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT AT 10 MPH, THE DRIVER BEHIND HER WAS ON A CELL PHONE AND REAR ENDED HER VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SEAT BELT FAILED TO RESTRAIN HER AND THE CONTACT HIT HER HEAD ON THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. THE AIR BAGS ALSO FAILED TO DEPLOY UPON IMPACT. THE CONTACT DID NOT RECEIVE MEDICAL ATTENTION; HOWEVER, SHE STATED THAT SHE DID HAVE PAIN TO HER LOWER SPINE, NECK, AND LEFT SIDE OF HER HEAD. THE OTHER DRIVER DID NOT SUSTAIN INJURIES. THE POLICE WERE CALLED TO THE SCENE; HOWEVER, THEY NEVER SHOWED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE GAVE HER INFORMATION TO THE DISPATCHER; BUT WAS UNCERTAIN IF A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS LATER DESTROYED. THE CONTACT ALSO WENT TO NYLE...

WHEN I START MY CAR WHICH IS STATIONARY THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON & DINGS (LIKE THE SEATBELT WARNING) IT DINGS LIKE 2 TIMES. THEN AS I DRIVE ON CITY STREETS & HIGHWAYS, WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION THE LIGHT WILL COME ON & GO OFF RANDOMLY. THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION, HOWEVER IT DOES HAPPEN WAY MORE OFTEN THAN NOT. AND I'M AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY & THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGERS. WHAT IF THE AIRBAGS DO NOT DEPLOY TO HELP SAVE ANYONE? I HAVE READ OTHER CUSTOMERS COMPLAINING OF THIS EXACT SAME THING HAPPENING WITH THEIR VEHILCES, YET THERE IS NO RECALL? SUCH AS NHTSA ID # 11395069 INCIDENT DATE 01-31-2021 PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS, AND PLEASE ADVISE OF SOLUTION - RESOLUTION

AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT COMES ON, TURNS OFF AT RANDOM, TURNS BACK ON AGAIN. REPEATS CYCLE WHILE DRIVING FOR ENTIRE DRIVE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF MAKING A DINGING NOISE. THERE IS RECALLS FOR VEHICLES THAT ARE THE SAME AS MINE YET FOR SOME REASON MINE IS NOT RECALLED. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THAT I START THE CAR AND CONTINUES WHILE I AM DRIVING.

MY AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF WHEN I HIT THE CAR IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC. MY FRAME WAS BENT AND BOTH CARS WERE TOTALED. I'VE SUSTAINED MANY INJURIES THAT ARE UNKNOWN OF TREATMENT COMPLETION

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30-35 MPH ON A CITY STREET THE FRONT PASSENGER HEAD REST AIRBAG HAD WENT OFF WITH PASSENGER IN THE SEAT. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT INVOLVED TO CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY.

STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT COMING ON WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN PARKED. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. NEEDED TO REPLACE THE BRAKE SWITCH. AIRBAG LIGHT ON. DIAGNOSTIC SHOWS THERE IS A SHORT IN AIRBAG WIRING AND THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF NEEDED. THIS LIGHT COMES ON AFTER STARTING CAR AND STAYS ON CONSTANTLY.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,830.

JUST LEAVING A PARKING LOT GOING MAYBE 15 MPH AT THE MOST AND THE DRIVER HEAD REST POPPED OUT AND A SPRING WENT FLYING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT HIT OR DID NOT MAKE ANY IMPACT WITH ANYTHING, NOT EVEN A SPEED BUMP. THE HEAD RESTS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE NOW AND IT WAS TERRIFYING GETTING HIT IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD WITH MY 1 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT. LOCAL DEALERSHIP ADVISED THIS IS NOT UNDER A RECALL SO IT WOULD BE SOMETHING WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR. ESTIMATE WAS CLOSE TO $3,000. THAT IS ABSURD WHEN IT IS A DEFECT AND NOT SOMETHING THAT I CAUSED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAD RESTRAINT POPPED OPENED AND STRUCK THE OCCUPANT IN THE HEAD WITHOUT WARNING. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINAT OR INJURIES.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 200,000.

THE HEADRESTS IN MY DODGE AVENGER HAVE POPPED FORWARD SEVERAL TIMES. SOMETIMES THEY WOULD POP FORWARD MERELY FROM THE HEAT, AS I LIVE IN A VERY HOT AREA. I HAD THE ORC REPLACED AS PART OF SAFETY RECALL S61, HOWEVER THE VEHICLES SAFETY IS REDUCED BECAUSE THE HEADRESTS WILL NOT STAY LOCKED IN DUE TO BROKEN PLASTIC LOCKS WHICH ARE SUPPOSED TO HOLD IT BACK. APPARENTLY THE HEADRESTS ARE NOT COVERED UNDER THE RECALL AS IT CURRENTLY STANDS. THE CAR IS UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE, AND IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT, THE HEADRESTS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DEPLOY SINCE THEY ARE NOW PERMANENTLY DEPLOYED. I THOUGHT THE HEADRESTS WERE ALREADY COVERED BY THE PREVIOUS RECALL, WHICH IS WHY I AM FILING NOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 DODGE AVENGER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE ACTIVE HEAD REST DETACHED AND WAS DETERIORATED.

THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO DIAGNOSE AND REPAIR THE FAILURE, BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO WITHIN A REASONABLE TIMEFRAME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

RECALL WAS REPLACED FOR SEAT BELT RESTRAINT CONTROL FOR DRIVER BUT LIGHT STILL REMAINED ON AFTER THE RECALL PART WAS REPAIRED, PASSENGER SEAT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER MAY HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF. A FEW TIMES I WOULD UNDO MY SEATBELT AND THEN SECURE IT AGAIN AND IT WOULD GO OFF. BUT IT COMES BACK ON AGAIN. BRAKES: I HAVE HAD ALL 4 BRAKES REPLACED AND MY BRAKES STILL SQUEAK AND THEY GRIND. IVE HAD THIS DONE TWICE AND IT DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE. IT MAKES A RATTLING SOUND WHEN GOING UPHILL. AND SQUEEKS AND GRINDS WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR MONTHS.

TAKATA RECALL, THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF IT MAINLY STAYS ON, SOMETIMES THE SEAT BELT IF PUT ON AT A RIGHT TIME THE AIR BAG LIGHT WILL STAY OFF BUT ONLY FOR A FEW MINUTES.

THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT HEADREST DEPLOYED WITHOUT NOTICE OR ACCIDENT STRIKING MY WIFE IN THE HEAD. THERE WAS NO COLLISION OR IMPACT IN ANY WAY. I HAD JUST PULLED OUT INTO THE ROAD AND WHILE ACCELERATING I HEARD A NOISE SOUNDING LIKE A SPRING UNDER PRESSURE UNCOILING. WE WERE GOING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH.
